DMX Linking
You may link the Q-Spot™ 560-LED to a DMX controller using a standard DMX serial
connection. If using other DMX compatible products with the Q-Spot™ 560-LED, you can
control each product individually with a single DMX controller.
DMX Modes
The Q-Spot™ 560-LED uses the standard DMX data connection for its DMX personalities,
Basic and Advanced. You will find information about these DMX modes in this manual.
Refer to the Introduction chapter for a brief description, the Operation chapter for
configuration details, and the DMX Values section for individual channel values.
Master/Slave
Connectivity
The Master/Slave mode enables a Q-Spot™ 560-LED (the “master unit”) to control one or
more Q-Spot™ 560-LED’s (the “slave units”) without a DMX controller. A Q-Spot™ 560-LED
becomes the master unit when running an AUTO, SOUND, TEST, or CUSTOM program.
You must configure the slave units to operate in SLAVE mode from their respective control
panels. During the master/slave operation, the slave units will operate in unison with the
master unit.
If you are not familiar with the DMX standard, master/slave connectivity, or if you need
information about the DMX cables needed to link this product to a DMX controller, you may
download the document DMX Primer from the CHAUVET® website: www.chauvetpro.com.
DO NOT connect a DMX controller to the products operating in Master/Slave mode.
The DMX controller signals may interfere with the signals from the master unit.
The Operation chapter of this manual provides detailed instructions on how to
configure the Master and Slave units.
