ROCKPAR TRI: How To Set Up Master/Slave Mode

Introduction

Master-Slave mode allows multiple ROCKPAR TRI Par Can lights to synchronize their lighting effects without needing a dedicated DMX controller. This guide will show you how to set up Master-Slave mode using a DMX cable or a wireless remote for easy control.

What You Need

• ROCKPAR TRI Par Can lights
• DMX cables (for wired setup)
• Wireless remote (optional for remote control)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Connecting the Lights with DMX Cables

2. Take a DMX cable and plug the male end into the DMX Out of your master light.
3. Connect the other end to the DMX In of the next light.
4. Repeat this process for all additional lights in the chain.

2. Setting the Slave Lights

1. Go to each slave light and access the menu.
2. Set the DMX address to "001" (or another address that matches the master).
3. Ensure the lights are in "D Mode" to function in Master-Slave mode.

3. Selecting a Mode on the Master Light

1. Use the buttons on the back of the master light to choose a mode (e.g., color change mode).
2. All connected slave lights should now mirror the master’s settings.

4. Using a Wireless Remote (Optional)

1. Point the remote at the master light and select a mode or color.
2. All slave lights will follow the master’s setting.
3. You can also:
   • Adjust the pulse speed using the speed arrows.
