ing, the patterns can also be selected manually. If the unit does not

plugged in to a matching wall outlet. If the problem continues to per-
sist, please contact customer support for further instructions.

on pages 8 - 10 as well as the set-up procedures included with

the last fixture.

ler to activate the various built-in patterns.

Manual Mode:
1. Set the mode switch to the "Manual" position. Use the Pattern
knobs 1 & 2 to adjust the patterns. Stop adjusting when you find
your desired pattern.
Sound Active Mode:
1. Set the mode switch to the "Sound Active" position.
2. The unit will react to the low frequencies of music via the internal
microphone.
Master-Slave Operation (Auto Mode, Manual Mode & Sound
Active Mode):
and operate without a controller. In Master-Slave operation one unit
will act as the controlling unit and the others will react to the controlling
units programs. Any unit can act as a Master or as a Slave.
1. Using standard XLR microphone cables, daisy chain your units
together via the XLR connector on the rear of the units. Remem-
ber the Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR
connector is the output. For longer cable runs we suggest a
terminator at the last fixture.
2. Auto Mode: Choose a unit to function as the Master and set dip-
switch #1 to the "ON" position, and put the Mode switch in "Auto"
position. This unit must be the first unit in line.
3. Turn any other dipswitches to the "ON" position, except dip-
switch #1, this must remain "OFF" on the SLAVE units. Now they
will react the same as the MASTER.
4. Manual Mode: Choose a unit to function as the Master and set
dipswitch #1 to the "ON" position, and put the Mode switch in
"Manual" position. This unit must be the first unit in line.
5. Turn any other dipswitches to the "ON" position, except dip-
switch #1, this must remain "OFF" on the SLAVE units. Now they
will react the same as the MASTER.
6. Sound Active Mode: Choose a unit to function as the Master and
set dipswitch #1 to the "ON" position, and put the Mode switch in
"Sound Active" position. This unit must be the first unit in line.
7. Turn any other dipswitches to the "ON" position, except dip-
switch #1, this must remain "OFF" on the SLAVE units. Now they
will react the same as the MASTER.
