Master/Slave
Connectivity
The Master/Slave mode allows a Q-Spot™ 460-LED (the “master product”) to control
one or more Q-Spot™ 460-LEDs (the “slave products”) without a D MX controller. One Q-
Spot™ 460-LED
becomes the master product when running an Auto or Custom
program.
You must configure each slave product’s control p
anel to operate in SLAVE mode.
During Master/Slave operation, the slave products will operat e in uniso n with the m aster
product.
DO NOT connect a DMX controller to products operating in Master/Slave mode.
The DMX controller signals may interfere with th
e signals from the master
product.
The Operation chapter of this manual provides detailed instructions on how to
configure the Master and Slave products.
