Master/Slave Controls

When two or more identical lamps are connected using DMX three-core signal cables, each lamp may be assigned an address code ranging from 001 to 512. One lamp must be designated as the host, while all others function as slaves. The display screens of all slave units will remain steady (without flickering). When the host is used to adjust effects such as gradient, pulse, jump, sound control, or automatic (self-propelled) mode, all slave units will synchronize with the host and reproduce the same effects.

Important Notes:

Only one host may be assigned within a group of lamps. If multiple hosts are configured, the lamps will flicker randomly and lose synchronization.
For proper operation when the DMX512 console is turned off, all lamps must be configured in host/slave mode.

DMX Control

After setting all the lamp address codes, connect the lamps in parallel to the DMX512 console using DMX three-core signal cables. When the address code stops flashing, it indicates that the DMX512 console has successfully transmitted the signal to the lamps. You can then use the DMX512 console to control the corresponding functions according to the channel instructions.
