Electrical installation for two or more units in DMX-master/slave:
In this mode the units will show a synchronized show, working to the rhythm of the beat but you can still
control some functions on the master by 1 or 5 DMX-channels.
To assure proper operation you need an optional "Mini DMX-SPLITTER" to isolate the master/slave line
from the main DMX-line, see drawing.
Connect 2 to maximum 16 units together using good quality balanced microphone cables. The first unit
in the chain will act as the master, the other units will act automatically as slaves.
Set the master to 1MSL or 5MSL channel mode (see previous chapter). Check the DMX-chart below to
see the difference between both channel modes.
For the DMX-controller the master and his slaves can now be considered as 1 virtual effect that needs a
start address so it can be controlled as any other DMX-unit in the DMX chain: see "DMX Address" in the
chapter "Main Menu" to see how you can set the DMX-start address.
Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
Set the DMX-controller according to the DMX-chart below.
Done!
Remark: in order to work well to the rhythm of the music, make sure that the option "Sound State" on the
master is set to "On" (see previous chapter)

Electrical installation in DMX-mode:
The DMX-protocol is a widely used high speed signal to control intelligent light equipment. You need to
"daisy chain" your DMX controller and all the connected units with a good quality balanced cable.
Both XLR-3pin and XLR-5pin connectors are used, however XLR-3pin is more popular because these
cables are compatible with balanced audio cables.
Pin layout XLR-3pin:
Pin layout XLR-5pin:
To prevent strange behavior of the light effects, due to interferences, you must use a 90Ω to 120Ω
terminator at the end of the chain. Never use Y-splitter cables, this simply won't
work!
Make sure that all units are connected to the mains.
Each light effect in the chain needs to have its proper starting address so it knows
