the instructions below:
Plug the wired remote into the Wired Remote In port on the
project or , and us e th e remot e as f ollo ws:
•To control the gobo’s rotation speed, turn the ROTATION SPEED knob to
the desir ed speed ( slow to fast).
•To control the direction of the gobo’s rotation, flip the DIRECTION switch to
either CCW (counter-clockwise) or CW (clockwi se).
•To control the power to the Gobo Sho t™ 50W IRC, flip the POWER switch
to either ON or OFF.
The Wired Remote In/Out ports allow one Gobo Shot™ 50W IRC to remotely
control the actions of another Gobo Shot™ 50W IRC without the need of an
additional wired remote. Using a standard RJ45 (network) cable, connect
the projector with the wired remote from its Wired Remote Out port to the
Wired Remote In port of the other projector. Gobo Shot™ 50W IRC
projectors configured in this manner operate in unison.
