You can link the COLORado™ 1 IP to a DMX controller using a standard DMX serial
connection. If using other DMX compatible products with the COLORado™ 1 IP, you can
control each individually with a single DMX controller.
The COLORado™ 1 IP uses the standard DMX data connection for the TOUR, ARC.1,
AR1.D, ARC.2, AR2.D, AR2.S, and HSV DMX modes.
Refer to the Introduction
Refer to the Operation
these modes.
The DMX Values section will provide you with detailed information regarding the DMX
modes.
The Master/Slave mode allows a COLORado™ 1 IP (the "master product") to control one or
more COLORado™ 1 IPs (the "slave products") without a DMX controller. One
COLORado™ 1 IP becomes the master product when running an Auto or Custom program,
or by being in STAT mode.
You must configure each slave product's control panel to operate in SLAV mode. During
Master/Slave operation, the slave products will operate in unison with the master product.
The COLORado™ 1 IP comes with two adapter cables, one from proprietary IP66 to 3-pin
DMX In and the other from proprietary IP66 to 3-pin DMX Out. In addition, it comes with a
signal linking cable with proprietary IP66 connectors on both ends.

connectivity, or the DMX cables needed to link this product to a DMX controller, download

DO NOT connect a DMX controller to products operating in Master/Slave mode. The
DMX controller signals may interfere with the signals from the master product.
The Operation chapter of this manual provides detailed instructions on how to
configure the Master and Slave products.
The COLORado™ 1 IP uses the ID Addressing feature to increase the number of
addressable products in the same DMX universe when in the TOUR personality.
