- 3 -  FUNCTIONS  AND SETTINGS

3.1 OPERATION

Connect the supplied main cable to a socket (230V~/50Hz). Then the unit is ready for operation and can 

be operated via a RDM controller or it independently performs its show program in succession. To switch 

off, disconnect the mains plug from the socket. For a more convenient operation it is recommended to 

connect the unit to a socket which can be switched on and off via a light switch.

3.2 LINKING

Several units may be interconnected in order to control all further slave units to the same effect of the 

master unit. Use standard DMX cables to daisy chain your units together via the DMX connector on the 

rear of the units. For longer cable runs we suggest a terminator at the last fixture (see page 9).

1.  Connect the DMX OUT of the master unit via 3-pole XLR cable to the DMX IN  of the first slave unit.

2.  Connect the DMX OUT of the first slave unit to the DMX IN of the second slave unit, etc. until all units 

are connected in a chain.
