Master/Slave
Mode
The Master/Slave mode allows a single COLORbar™ SMD unit (the “master”) to control
the actions of one or more COLORbar™ SMD
units (the “slaves”) without the need of a
DMX controller. The master unit will be set to operate in either Automatic or Sound
Active mode, while the slave units will be set to operate in Slave 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 <MODE> repeatedly until d 1 shows on the display.
2. Press <ENTER> to accept.
3. Set the DMX address to 001.
4. Connect the DMX input of the first slave unit to the DMX output of the master unit.
5. Connect the DMX input of the subsequent slave units to the DMX output of the
previous slave unit.
6. Finish setting and connecting all the slave units.
Master unit:
1. Set the master unit to operate in either Automatic or Sound 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.

Maintenance
Dust build-up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can
lead to reduction of the light source’s life.
To maintain optimum performance and
minimize wear, you should clean your lighting products at least twice a month. However,
be aware that usage and environmental conditions could be contributing factors to
increase the cleaning frequency.
To clean the product, follow the instructions below:
• Unplug the product from power.
• Wait until the product is cold.
• Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust collected on
the external surface/vents.
• Clean all transparent surfaces with a mild soap solution, ammonia-free glass
cleaner, or isopropyl alcohol.
• Apply the solution directly to a soft, lint-free cotton cloth or a lens cleaning tissue.
• Softly wipe any dirt or grime to the outside edges of the transparent surface.
• Gently polish the transparent surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.
Always dry the transparent surfaces carefully after cleaning them.
