Universal DMX Control: This function allows you to use a Elation®
universal DMX-512 controller to control the chases and patterns,
dimmer and strobe. A DMX controller allows you to create unique
programs tailored to your individual needs. The Monster Beam has 1
DMX Channel.
1. This function will allow you to control each individual fixture’s
traits with a standard DMX 512 controller such as the
Elation® Show Designer™ or the Elation® DMX Operator.™
2. To run your fixture in DMX mode, set your desired DMX address
following the directions on page 8, and the set-up specifications
that come with your DMX controller.
3. Plug in the fixture via the XLR connections to any standard DMX
controller.
4. For longer cable runs (more than a 100 feet) use a terminator on
the last fixture.

Master-Slave Conguration: This function will allow you to link up
to 16 units together and operate without a controller. The units will be
sound activated. In Master-Slave operation one unit will act as the con-
trolling unit and the others will react to the controlling units programs.
Any unit can act as a Master or as a Slave.
1. Using approved DMX data cables, daisy chain your units togeth-
er via the XLR connector on the rear of the units. Remember the
Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR connector
is the output. The rst 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. For longer cable runs we suggest a termina-
tor at the last fixture.
2. Set the Master unit to the Master setting by pressing the MENU
button until “Slave Mode” is displayed, and Press ENTER. Use the
UP and DOWN button to find “Master” and then press ENTER.
Next, set the unit to your desired operating mode.
3. For the slave units press the MENU button until “Slave Mode” is
displayed, and Press ENTER. Choose either “Slave 1” or “Slave 2”
and press ENTER. See page 8 for more info.
4. The slave units will now follow the Master unit.
