Product Linking
You will need a serial data link to run light
shows of one or more products using a DMX-512 controller or to run synchronized shows
on two or more products set to a master/slave operating mode. The combined number of
channels required by all the products on a serial data link determines the number of
products the data link can support.
Important: Products on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single
Master/Slave Product Linking
1. Connect the (male) 3 pin connector side of the DMX cable to the output (female) 3 pin
connector of the first product.
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the first product which will have a (female) 3
pin connector to the input connector of the next product consisting of a (male) 3 pin
connector. Then, proceed to connect from the output as stated above to the input of the
following product and so on.
Often, the setup for Master-Slave
and Standalone operation requires
that the first product in the chain be
initialized for this purpose via either
settings in the control panel or DIP-
switches. Secondarily, the products
that follow may also require a slave
setting. Please consult the
"Operating Instructions" section in
this manual for complete
instructions for this type of setup
and configuration.
