You can also use the optional MINI/C Remote Control. If you want

to use the optional remote control, connect the MINI/C controller

to the first fixture in the line (master).

Note: The remote control only operates in Stand-Alone and Master/

Slave modes. If the remote is connected in DMX mode it will not

function.

If

units

the

units will automatically react to sound in the Master/Slave mode.

DMX Mode:

operation. For best results use only

each

scene

step),

programming

scenes into a DMX controller

This will give you faster mirror and faster

gobo/color changes. For Example:

A. With DMX controller move the mirror up then program the step.

B. Move the mirror down then program that step.

C. Change the gobo/color wheel then program that step.

D. Continue this pattern to achieve best results.
