6. Master / Slave Operational Mode
The Master / Slave Operational Mode allows one ProTron and all other LED Luminaire to act as the "Master" unit
connected units are controlled by this unit. When a unit is set to "Slave" mode, it will only listen to and follow any
commands sent from a "Master" unit. Only one "Master" unit is allowed in this type of operation.
To setup a master / slave network:
Step 1. Set the first device in the DMX512 chain to Master Mode through the unit’s menu system.
Step 2. Set all other connected units to Slave Mode
.
Step 3. The master unit can be controlled via DMX512, RDM or through standalone operation (self-contained
network utilizing on-board effects). The slave units will mimic the master unit’s operation in all cases.
Note:
For ProTron LED Luminaire DMX Mapping, refer to "DMX CONTROL" on page 14.
