Master/Slave
Connectivity
The Master/Slave mode allows a COLORado™ 1-Tri IP fixture to control one or more
COLORado™ 1-Tri IP fixtures without a DMX controller. The controlling fixture becomes
the “master” when running an auto or custom program as well as when in STATIC
mode. The controlled fixtures are the “slaves” and you must set them to “SLAVE” mode
from their respective control panels. During the Master/Slave operation, the slave
fixtures will operate in unison with the master fixture.
