all the clocks (see Figure 5-2). If a slave fixture has a longer sequence length, it will
restart at scene 1 before it completes its entire sequence.
To enable synchronized playback:
1. Link the fixtures you want to synchronize (see “Linking the Fixtures” on
page 1-7).
Make sure you terminate the last fixture in the link and that there are no
DMX controllers on the link.
2. Assign one fixtures as the master fixture by assigning it a unique DMX start
channel 1 or fixture number 1.
Make sure no other fixture on the link is assigned DMX start channel 1 or
fixture number 1.
3. Set preset playback on for all fixtures on the link (see “Setting Preset
Playback (PLAY)” on page 4-39).
Note: If there is a controller on the link, or if more than one fixture is assigned
a DMX start channel 1 or fixture number 1, the master fixture’s LED will
display “LINK BUSY ERR,” wait for three minutes, then try to transmit
the time code again.
