Operation

Stand-Alone Mode (Sound-Active, Auto Mode, Strobe Mode, All On):

This mode allows a single unit to run to the beat of the music, or the unit will auto change in Auto Mode.

1)Set dipswitches position to Sound-Active or Auto Mode.

Mode	Dipswitches
Sound-Active	1-8: Off, 9: On, 10: Off
Auto Mode	1-4: Effect speed*, 5-7: Off, 8-9: Off, 10: On
Strobe Mode	1-4: Off, 5-7: Strobe speed**, 8-10: Off
All On	1-7: Off, 8: On, 9-10: Off

*Effect speed	**Strobe speed
1 on = slow	5-7 off = no strobing
1-2 on = medium	5 on = slow strobing
1-3 on = fast	5-6 on = medium strobing
1-4 on = very fast	5-7 on = fast strobing

2)The unit will react to the low frequencies of music via the internal microphone in Sound-Active mode, or the unit will auto change in Auto Mode.

3)Use the audio sensitivity knob on the back of the unit to make the unit more or less sensitive in Sound-Active mode. Turning the knob counterclockwise decreases the sensitivity; turning the knob clockwise increases the sensitivity.

Master/Slave Mode (Master Sound, Master Auto):

This mode will allow you to link up to 32 units together without a controller.

1)Use standard DMX cables to daisy chain your units together via the DMX connector on the rear of the units. For longer cable runs we suggest a terminator at the last fixture. For more information about terminators, see page 8.

2)Determine which fixture will be the master. Connect a DMX cable from the DMX output connector of the master to the DMX input connector of another Vue I™ or Vue II™.

3)Continue connecting the slaves together with DMX cables

4)Set the dipswitches on the master according to the desired mode of operation.

Mode	Dipswitches
Master Sound	9 = On, 10 = Off
Master Auto	9 = Off, 10 = On

5)For auto mode, set dipswitches to the desired mode.

Mode	Dipswitches
Auto Mode	1-4: Effect speed*, 5-7: Off, 8-9: Off, 10: On
Strobe Mode	1-4: Off, 5-7: Strobe speed**, 8-10: Off
