Master/Slave Connectivity

You may link the Q-Wash 260-LED to a DMX controller using a standard DMX serial connection. If using other DMX compatible products with this product, it is possible to control them individually with a single DMX controller.

The Q-Wash 260-LED uses the standard DMX data connection for its Basic and Advanced DMX modes. You will find information about these DMX modes in the Operation chapter (configuration details), and the DMX Values section (individual channel values).

The Master/Slave mode allows a Q-Wash 260-LED product to control one or more products of the same model without a DMX controller. The controlling product becomes the “master product” when running the Auto1, Auto2, or Custom programs.

You must configure the controlled (slave) products to operate in “SLAVE” mode from their respective control panels. During the Master/Slave operation, the slave products will operate in unison with the master product. .

If you are not familiar with the DMX standard, master/slave connectivity, or if you need information about the DMX cables needed to link this product to a DMX controller, you may download the document DMX Primer from the CHAUVET® website: www.chauvetpro.com.

DO NOT connect a DMX controller to the products operating in Master/Slave mode. The DMX controller signals may interfere with the signals from the master unit.

The Operation chapter of this manual provides detailed instructions on how to configure the Master and Slave units.
