Universal DMX Control: This unit allows you to use any universal DMX-512 controller to control the
different DMX traits. A DMX controller allows you to create unique programs tailored to your individu-
al needs.
1. The Electro 196 II II uses eight DMX channels.
2. To control your fixture in DMX mode, follow the set-up specifications that are included with your
DMX controller.
3. Set your desired DMX address using the dipswitches.
4. Use the controller’s faders to control the various DMX fixture traits.
5. For longer cable runs (more than a 100 feet) use a terminator on the last fixture.
6. For help operating in DMX mode consult the manual included with your DMX controller.
Master-Slave Operation (Auto Mode or Sound Active): This function will allow you to link up to 16
units together and operate without a controller. In Master-Slave operation one unit will act as the con-
trolling unit and the others will react to the controlling units operation. Any unit can act as a Master or
as a Slave.
1. Using standard XLR microphone cables, daisy chain your units together via the XLR connector on
the rear of the units. Remember the Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR con-
nector is the output. For longer cable runs we suggest a terminator at the last fixture.
2. The dipswitch settings for Master/Slave mode is as follows. For Sound Active mode the Master
unit must have all dipswitches in the “Off” position, and the slave units, dipswitch 1 “On”.
For Auto Mode the Master unit must have dipswitch 10 “On”, and the slave units, dipswitch 1
“On”.
Stand Alone (Manual Mode):
1. Plug the fixture in, dipswitch controls are as follows: Dipswitch 1 is Red, Dipswitch 2 is Green,
Dipswitch 3 is Blue, Dipswitch 4 is Yellow, Dipswitch 5 is Navy Blue, Dipswitch 6 is Purple, and
Dipswitch 10 will change between Red, Green, and Blue.
2. When dipswitches 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 10 are ON, dipswitches 7, 8, and 9 will control the intensity.
Stand Alone (Auto Mode):
1. Plug the fixture in and use dipswitches 7, 8, and 9 to run Auto Mode and control the intensity.
Stand Alone (Sound Active Mode):
1. When all dipswitches are OFF, the fixture will run in Sound Active Mode.
DMX TRAITS:
CHANNEL 1: STROBING & MODES
0 - 1 = OPEN
2 - 99 = STROBING SLOW - FAST
100 - 127 = CLOSED
128 - 191 = AUTO MODE SLOW - FAST
192 - 255 = SOUND ACTIVE SLOW - FAST
CHANNEL 2: RED LED’S GROUP 1
0 - 255 = INTENSITY 0% - 100%
CHANNEL 3: RED LED’S GROUP 2
0 - 255 = INTENSITY 0% - 100%
CHANNEL 4: RED LED’S GROUP 3
0 - 255 = INTENSITY 0% - 100%
CHANNEL 5: GREEN LED’S GROUP 1
0 - 255 = INTENSITY 0% - 100%
CHANNEL 6: GREEN LED’S GROUP 2
0 - 255 = INTENSITY 0% - 100%
CHANNEL 7: BLUE LED’S GROUP 1
0 - 255 = INTENSITY 0% - 100%
CHANNEL 8: BLUE LED’S GROUP 2
0 - 255 = INTENSITY 0% - 100%
When Channel 1 is between the values of 100 - 255, all other channels will not work. To use chan-
nels 2 - 8, channel 1 either has to be off or strobing (values 2 -99).
