The Freedom™ Quad-5 series can be configured to control 2 or more products with no

set up the D-Fi™ syncing function for IR/standalone functionality, do the following:
For the transmitting product:
1.
Press <MODE> repeatedly until SYS, ACt, ACtC, SLAv, or S-Ir shows on the
display.
2.
Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select SYS.
3.
Press <ENTER>.
4.
Press <UP> or <DOWN> until S-tr shows on the display.
5.
Press <ENTER>.
6.
Press <UP> or <DOWN> until tA.S shows on the display.
7.
Press <ENTER> and t-AU shows on the display.
For the receiving product(s):
1.
Press <MODE> repeatedly until SYS, ACt, ACtC, SLAv, or S-Ir shows on the
display.
2.
Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select SLAv.
3.
Press <ENTER>.
4.
Press <UP> or <DOWN> until rA.S shows on the display.
5.
Press <ENTER> and r-AU shows on the display.
6.
Press <AUTO> for approximately 10 seconds to set the receiving product.
Once the steps above are done, press and hold <AUTO> on just the transmitting
product for approximately 30 seconds. The display and signal LED will flash to indicate
sync is activated.
You can then back out to a more general menu level and configure the transmitting
product to operate it in Automatic mode or with an IRC (sold separately).
To configure your product to work in one of the automatic modes, read the
(Standalone)
and specific automatic mode sections of this manual.
To configure your product to work with the CHAUVET® IRC, refer to the
Remote Control)
section of this manual.
·
To add additional compatible Freedom™ products, turn the synced ones off
and repeat the above steps with unsynced products. Once all products are
synced, turn them all back on.
·
Auto scan syncing must be done within a distance of about 30 ft (10 m).
Note: Auto syncing signals might be blocked if the transmitting product and
the receiving product are too close to each other. If they are unable to
become synchronized, move them farther apart and try syncing them again.
·
While using the D-Fi™ syncing function, the transmitting product can also be
connected to other compatible Freedom™ series products using DMX linking.
·
If you are experiencing antenna issues or need to improve signal quality,
extend the antenna outward away from the product and keep the line of sight
between products unobstructed.
·
Ensure that all linked products are configured to the same DMX personality
(either 4-channel or 5-channel).
