Configuration (Standalone)

Sound-Active Mode

Automatic Mode

Master/Slave

Mode

Set the product in one of the standalone modes to control without a DMX controller.

1.Connect the product to a suitable power outlet.

2.Turn the product on.

Never connect a product that is operating in any standalone mode, whether Static, Automatic, or Sound to a DMX string connected to a DMX controller. This is because products in standalone mode may transmit DMX signals that could interfere with the DMX signals from the controller.

To enable the Sound-Active mode, do the following:

1.Press <MENU> repeatedly until Sound shows on the display.

2.Press <ENTER>.

3.Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select Yes.

4.Press <ENTER>.

5.Turn the music on until the product responds to the beat of the music.

The product will only respond to low frequencies of the music (bass and drums).

To enable the Automatic Mode, follow the instructions below:

1.Press <MENU> repeatedly until Automatic shows on the display.

2.Press <ENTER>.

3.Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select Yes.

4.Press <ENTER>.

This mode allows a single unit (the “master”) to control the actions of one or more units (the “slaves”) without the need of a DMX controller. The master unit will be set to operate in either Automatic or Sound-Active mode, while the slave units will be set to operate in Slave Mode. Once set and connected, the slave units will operate in unison with the master unit.

Configure the units as indicated below. Slave units:

1.Press <MENU> repeatedly until 8-CHshows on the display.

2.Press <ENTER> to accept.

3.Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select the starting address to: d001.

4.Press <ENTER>.

5.Connect the DMX input of the first slave unit to the DMX output of the master unit.

6.Connect the DMX input of the subsequent slave units to the DMX output of the previous slave unit.

7.Finish setting and connecting all the slave units.

Master unit:

1.Set the master unit to operate in either Automatic or Sound-Active mode.

2.Make the master unit the first unit in the DMX daisy chain.

Wait until all the slave units are configured and connected before connecting the master unit to the DMX daisy chain.

Never connect a DMX controller to a DMX string configured for Master/Slave operation because it may interfere with the signals from the master unit.

Do not connect more than 31 slave units to the master unit.

The MotionDrape™ and MotionFaçade™ can also be used together in this mode with the same configuration.
