Master/Slave Mode - Chauvet Intimidator Barrel LED 300 User Manual

Master/Slave
Mode
Intimidator™ Barrel LED 300 User Manual (Rev. 5)
The Master/Slave mode allows a single Intimidator™ Barrel LED 300 unit (the "master")
to control the actions of one or more Intimidator™ Barrel LED 300 units (the "slaves")
without the need of a DMX controller. The master unit will be set to operate in either
Automatic or Sound Active mode, while the slave units will be set to operate in Slave
Mode. Once set and connected, the slaves will operate in unison with the master unit.
Slave mode:
1. Press <MODE/ESC> repeatedly until one of the following shows on the display:
NASl, NAFA, NStS, or SLAv.
2. Press <UP> or <DOWN> to select SLAv.
3. Press <ENTER> to accept.
4. Set the DMX address to 001.
5. Connect the DMX input of the first slave unit to the DMX output of the master unit.
6. Connect the DMX input of the subsequent slave units to the DMX output of the
previous slave unit.
7. Finish setting and connecting all the slave units.
Master mode:
1. Set the master unit to operate in either Automatic or Sound mode.
2. Make the master unit the first unit in the DMX daisy chain.
•
Configure all the slave units before connecting the master unit to the DMX
daisy chain.
•
Never connect a DMX controller to a DMX string configured for Master/Slave
operation because the controller may interfere with the signals from the
master unit.
•
Do not connect more than 31 slave units to the master unit.
