Using Master/Slave Mode:

The Master/Slave mode allows a group of VividPar HEX 6 units (the slaves) to duplicate the output of another VividPar HEX 6 (the master) without a DMX controller.

1. Set each of the slaves:

■ Go to SLNd in the main menu and press enter.
■ Select SL1.

1. Set the master:

■ Go to SLNd in the main menu and press enter.
■ Select NASt.

- The master (NASt) is the unit that runs your program whether in one of the static color modes or various Auto programs.

    D --> E["Stage 5: System with one component"]

Using Slave modes (SL1, SL2, SL3, SL4) to create a light show

Using 5 or more lights for best effect, VividPar HEX 6 can help create auto-light shows by setting lights in order from Master, SL1, SL2, SL3, SL4 and engaging Auto Programs on the Master fixture.

1. Set each of the desired slaves SL1, SL2, SL3, SL4:

■ Go to SLNd in the main menu and press enter.
■ Select SL1.
■ Repeat steps for each slave fixture SL2, SL3, and SL4

1. Set the master:

■ Go to SLNd in the main menu and press enter.
■ Select NASt.

• For best effect, have lights connected in sequence from Master, to SL1, to SL2, to SL3, to SL4.
• Accessing the (ShNd) programs on the Master light will now create varying displays of synchronized light on the master and slave fixtures through (Auto) and (SoUn) functions.
