Master/Slave
Mode
The Master/Slave mode allows a single Arena™ 2100 Flex unit (the “master”) to control
the actions of one or more Arena™ 2100 Flex units (the “slaves”) without the need of a
DMX controller. The master unit will be set to operate in Timer, Volume, or Manual
mode, while the slave units will be set to operate in DMX Mode. Once set and
connected, the slave units will operate in unison with the master unit.
Configure the units as indicated below.
Slave units:
1. Press <FUNCTION> repeatedly until DMX 512 Add shows on the display.
2. Set the DMX address to 001.
3. Connect the DMX input of the first slave unit to the DMX output of the master unit.
4. Connect the DMX input of the subsequent slave units to the DMX output of the
previous slave unit.
5. Finish setting and connecting all the slave units.
Master unit:
1. Set the master unit to operate in Timer, Volume, or Manual mode.
2. Make the master unit the first unit in the DMX daisy chain.
Configure all the slave units before connecting the master unit to the DMX
daisy chain.
Never connect a DMX controller to a DMX string configured for Master/Slave
operation because the controller may interfere with the signals from the
master unit.
Do not connect more than 31 slave units to the master unit.
