units together and operate without a controller. The units will be sound
activated. 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 approved DMX data cables, daisy chain your units togeth-
er via the XLR connector on the rear of the units. Remember the
Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR connector
is the output. The first unit in the chain (master) will use the female
XLR connector only - The last unit in the chain will use the male
XLR connector only. For longer cable runs we suggest a termina-
tor at the last fixture.
2. Set the Master unit to the "Master" setting following the direc-
tions on page 11. After you have set it, select your desired operat-
ing mode.
3.
Set the "Slave" units to the "Slave" setting following the directions
on page 11.
4. The slave units will now follow the Master unit.
