Master/Slave Mode
The master/slave mode allows connecting several devices to a single master device. All slave devices will
then work synchronously with the master device.
Set one device to master mode and all other devices to slave mode.
1.
Connect all devices in series with DMX cables.
2.
The first unit in the chain functions as the master device. Set up the unit as described above (Error!
Reference source not found.).
3.
Set all DIP switches to OFF on all connected slave devices.
7.5
DMX Mode
This mode allows you to control the device by any universal DMX controller.
Set DIP switch 10 to OFF and assign the DMX address with DIP switches 1 to 9.

(O = off)
All DMX-controlled devices need a digital start address so that the correct device responds to the
signals. This digital start address is the channel number from which the device starts to "listen" to
the DMX controller. The same starting address can be used for a whole group of devices or an
individual address can be set for every device.
When all devices have the same address, all the units will "listen" to the control signal on one
particular channel. In other words: changing the settings of one channel will affect all devices
simultaneously. If you set individual addresses, each device will "listen" to a separate channel
number. Changing the settings of one channel will only affect the device in question.
In case of the 5-channel mode, you will have to set the start address of the first unit to 1 (CH1–5),
the second to 6 (1 + 5) (CH6–10), the third to 11 (6 + 5) (CH11–15), and so on. The highest start
address is 508.
