Operating Modes

A stand-alone mode will listen to sound and run through its diverse range of built in programs.

Master/Slave mode will allow the command of up to as many units you want in a synchronized
light show to the sound.

DMX control mode will provide the greatest flexibility and creativity. Each fixture trait can be
controlled individually using any universal DMX-512 controller.
M a s t e r / St a n d Al o n e
Two options are available, a sound-active mode or an automatic mode. In sound-active mode the
internal programs are triggered by the beat of the sound. In automatic mode the internal programs run
at the chase time pre-recorded. It is your choice to enable each fixture to run in Stand Alone mode by
activating either of the two functions below or to proceed to enable slave fixtures as described in the
following section.

The Master/Slave mode will allow you to link multiple units in a daisy chain fashion. In this mode, the
first unit in the daisy chain, the master, will automatically command all other units following. The first
unit will operate in a Stand/Alone mode and all units following will synchronize to the first unit.

Operating in a DMX Control mode environment gives the user the greatest flexibility when it comes to
customizing or creating a show. You can tailor your programming to suit a specific event. Whether it
is a wedding where a spot light may be required or a lead singer requiring a color solo, the
opportunities are endless. In this mode you will be able to control each individual trait of the fixture
independently.
