RECEIVING YOUR EQUIPMENT
As soon as you have received your equipment, open the boxes and examine the
contents. If any damage is noted, contact the carrier immediately to file a claim for
damages. You can be sure that when the equipment left the factory it was in good
condition and properly packed.

If you find the equipment to be in accordance with your order and the packing slip, and
also in good physical condition you may read on to the section covering SET-UP AND
CONNECTION. If for some reason the equipment in the carton does not agree with
your order or the packing slip, contact the factory immediately and we will be happy to
help you.

SET-UP AND CONNECTION
Remove all packing material from the carton and set the controller on a smooth flat
surface. Proper connection of electronic lighting control equipment is very important.
The Controlmaster has been designed to make it as simple as possible. The
Controlmaster controllers must be connected to the dimmer pack through a control cable.
The cable uses standard DB15 connectors and can be any length.

CM-SS
This is a one-scene, six-channel controller with a master. Each channel has a calibrated
linear slide control. The master fader controls all the channels and must be up to allow
any channel to go to full. The bump buttons located between the faders will flash each
channel to full output regardless of the setting of the crossfader or the master. The red
blackout switch will black out all channels when activated (down) and will override all
other controls.

The CM-SS is factory set for 0-10 volts output and requires power from the dimmer.
The control connector is wired so that the pin number is the channel number. Pin 15 is
common, pin 13 requires +12 to +30 volts for power, and pins 7 through 12 are not
used.

The CM-SS is not diode protected so that it cannot be used in parallel with another
controller. Diode protection and an AC power supply can be added as options. Consult
the factory for these modifications.

CM-TS
This controller has a pair of calibrated linear slide controls for each channel. These
slide controls make up the two scenes X and Y. When the X-Y crossfader is moved up
to the X position, the X scene is active and the scene X controls affect the lights. When
the X-Y crossfader is down, or in the Y position, the Y scene controls affect the lights.

The Master control affects all channels in either scene. It is a true proportional grand
master and must be up to allow any channel full output. The bump buttons located
