Opti RGB | Operating Instructions |
Operating Modes:
You can use the Opti RGB in four ways:
•
•Auto Mode - The unit will automatically chase through the different colors.
•RGB Mode - Choose a single color or colors to stay static.
•DMX control mode - This function will allow you to control each individual fixtures traits with a standard DMX 512 controller such as as the Elation® Show Designer™.
Master-Slave Operation:
This function will allows you to link units together to run in a Master- Slave mode. In
1.Daisy chain your units via the XLR connector on the rear of the unit. Use standard XLR microphone cables to link your units together. Remember that the Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR connector is the ouput. The first unit in the chain (master) will use the female XLR connector only. The last unit in the chain will use the male XLR connector only.
2.Set dipswitch #10 to the “ON” position, on the “Master” unit. Then on the ‘Master” unit, set the dipswitches for the mode you want to
run.
Example: On the “Master” unit set dipswitch #10 to the “ON” posi- tion, and then set dipswitch #9 to the “ON” position to run the Master/Slave configuration in Auto Mode.
3.For the “Slave” unit(s), dipswitch #10 must remain in the “Off” position, other then that you may set the dipswitch(es) at any setting.
4.Connect the “Slave” unit or units and they will automatically start to follow the “Master.”
Sound Active Mode:
In this mode the Opti RGB will react to sound, and chase through the dif- ferent colors.
1.Plug the fixture in and put dipswitch #10 in the “ON” postion.
2.The fixture will now change via sound.
