Master/Slave Modes
The Lex7Star can be linked together with other Lex7Star units to
create a stunning, in-sync lightshow. This is acheived by linking the units together via the 3 pin DMX connections at the rear. Please see

By choosing the Master program mode and connecting the DMX OUT
to another xture will allow the Slaves to copy the Master. The above example shows the Master set to Sound-To_Light Mode. Dip switch 9
on the Slave(s) tell the unit it is a slave.
DMX Mode
DMX (Digital Multiplex) is a universal protocol used as a form of communication between intelligent xtures and controllers. A
DMX controller sends DMX data instructions from the controller
to the xture. DMX data is sent as serial data that travels from xture to xture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR termi­nals located on all DMX xtures. The Lex7Star is a DMX enabled xture and the DMX mode and
DMX address settings are controlled via the Dip Switches. It also carries the standard 3-pin XLR connections for DMX use.
To set your xture for use with a universal DMX controller:
Dip Switches all to the OFF position
1 2 34567
8 9 10
o
on
With all Dip switches set to OFF position now means your xture is now in DMX mode and is awaiting for you to assign a DMX Fixture address. Address settings are obtained by using dip switches 1 - 9. See example below:
Light 1 in the (01)DMX Universe - Dip 1 to ON Light 2 in the (17)DMX Universe - Dip 1 & 5 to ON
Light 3 in the (34)DMX Universe - Dip 2 & 6 to ON
This based on the controller having 16 channels per xture.
Please see the instructions of your controller for more details on
xture addressing.
