NOTE
Soft Reset – If the DMX value sent on this channel (1) stays in the range from 5 to 7 for more than 5
seconds, the projector will start a reset sequence (Remote Requested Reset). The electronics are re-started
and all motors moved to their home positions exactly as they do when the power is first switched on but the
lamp is not switched off in this sequence, although the beam will be blacked out
.
The channels 9 and 10 are only available when the Setup Option 6 is “ON”.
For the exact setting refer to “Setup Options” section.
The projectors can operate without a controller. They can do this in one of 3 different ways. Stand-Alone
Mode means automatic operation independent of other projectors and can either be automatic or triggered
by music depending on the combination of Setup Options 4 and 5 that are selected.
STAND-ALONE MODES – MASTER / SLAVE
The projectors can also operate synchronously with each other in Master/Slave mode. To do this they must
be connected together as described above in the Control Connections section with the terminator inserted
in the output of the last slave projector in the chain but, of course, without the controller. The same type of
DMX cables must be used to connect the Master with the Slaves. The appropriate Setup Options must also
be set. See the section on “Setup Options – Projector Configuration” for full details of the available
combinations.
Select one projector as the Master, setting the DMX start address at random. Regard the other projectors
as the slaves setting all DMX start addresses to “001”.
