5. How To Control The Unit
You can operate the unit in three ways:
1. By master/slave built-in preprogram function
2. By easy controller
3. By iLead controller ( please refer to the user guide of iLead ) or universal DMX controller
No need to turn the unit off when you change the DMX address, as new DMX address
setting will be effected at once. Every time you turn the unit on, it will show IM-5S/IM-5W on
the display and move all the motors to their ‘home’ position and you may hear some noises
for about 20 seconds. After that the unit will be ready to receive DMX signal or run the built
in programs.

units to give an automatic, sound activated, synchronized light show. This function
is good when you want an instant show. You have to set the first unit in master
mode
and select (show 1) or (show 2) or (show 3)
or
(show 4) mode. Its DMX input jack will have nothing plugged into it, and
Its master LED will be constantly on and sound LED will flash to the music. The
other units will have to set in slave mode
and select (normal) or
(2 light show) mode, Their DMX cables plugged into the DMX input jacks
(daisy chain) and the slave led lights will constantly on.
2-light show
In (slave mode), means the unit works normally and means
2-light show. In order to create a great light show, you can set
on the second unit to
get contrast movement to each other, even if you have two units only.

The easy remote control is used only in master/slave mode. By
connecting to the 1/4” microphone jack of the first unit, you will find
that the remote control on the first unit will control all the other units
