DMX Linking
You can link the COLORado™ 1 Quad IP to a DMX controller using a standard DMX serial
connection. If using other DMX compatible products with the COLORado™ 1 Quad IP, you
can control each individually with a single DMX controller.
DMX Modes
The COLORado™ 1 Quad IP uses the standard DMX data connection for the TOUR,
ARC.1, AR1.D, ARC.2, AR2.D, AR2.S, and HSV DMX modes.
Refer to the Introduction chapter for a brief description of these modes.
Refer to the Operation chapter to learn how to configure the COLORado™ 1 Quad IP to
work in these modes.
The DMX Values section provides detailed information regarding the DMX modes.
Master/Slave
Connectivity
The Master/Slave mode allows a COLORado™ 1 Quad IP (the “master product”) to control
one or more COLORado™ 1 Quad IPs (the “slave products”) without a DMX controller. One
COLORado™ 1 Quad IP becomes the master product when running an Auto
or Custom
program, or by being in Static (STAT) mode.
You must configure each slave product’s control panel to operate in Slave (SLAV) mode.
During Master/Slave operation, the slave products will operate in unison with the master
product.
If you are not familiar with or need more information about DMX standards, Master/Slave
connectivity, or the DMX cables needed to link this product to a DMX controller, download
the DMX Primer from the CHAUVET® website: www.chauvetpro.com.
DO NOT connect a DMX controller to products operating in Master/Slave mode. The
DMX controller signals may interfere with the signals from the master product.
The Operation chapter of this manual provides detailed instructions on how to
configure the Master and Slave products.
