Operating Modes

A stand-alone mode will listen to sound and run through its diverse range of built in programs.
Master/Slave mode will allow the command of up to as many units you want in a synchronized light show to the
sound.
DMX control mode will provide the greatest flexibility and creativity. Each fixture trait can be controlled individually
using any universal DMX-512 controller.

Stand Alone

The Stand Alone mode is activated automatically when the fixture is absent of DMX signal or a
controller is not connected. The fixture will run through its built in programs as it listens to the sound.

Master/Slave

The Master/Slave mode will allow you to link up to as many units you want in a daisy chain fashion. In
this mode, the first unit in the daisy chain will automatically command all other units following.
Connecting this fixture for (Master/Slave) operation does not require any menu or setting selections.
Simply connect each unit in a daisy like fashion using qualified 3 pin DMX cables as described below.

as illustrated below.

DMX Mode

Operating in a DMX Control mode environment gives the user the greatest flexibility when it comes to
customizing or creating a show. In this mode you will be able to control each individual trait of the
fixture independently.
SETTING TH E STAR TING ADDRESS
This DMX mode enables the use of a universal DMX controller device. Each fixture requires a "start
address" from 1 to 511. A fixture requiring one or more channels for control begins to read the data
on the channel indicated by the start address. For example, a fixture that occupies or uses 6 channels
of DMX and was addressed to start on DMX channel 100, would read data from channels: 100, 101,
102, 103, 104, and 105. Choose start addresses so that the channels used do not overlap and notate
the start address selected for future reference.
