D-Fi USB Connectivity
The 4BAR Quad ILS can become a D-Fi wireless receiver/transmitter with the use of the D-Fi USB from CHAUVET DJ. Simply set the DIP switch D-Fi receiving/transmitting channel, plug it into the USB port then set the product’s DMX Personality and DMX Address.

WARNING! DO NOT plug anything other than a D-Fi USB into the USB port. Doing so may cause damage to the product. Once plugged in, the D-Fi USB will take over the product. Wired DMX and manual display control/menu buttons will be unavailable until you unplug the D-Fi USB. The priority levels are:

1. D-Fi USB
2. Wired DMX
3. IRC-6 Remote Control
4. Manual Digital Display/Menu Buttons

Master/Slave Mode (D-Fi USB)
The D-Fi USB allows a single 4BAR Quad ILS product (the “master”) to control the actions of one or more 4BAR Quad ILS products (the “slaves”) without the need for a DMX controller or DMX cables. The master (transmitter) product will be set to operate in standalone mode, while the slave (receiver) products will be set to operate in DMX mode. Once set and connected, the slave products will operate in unison with the master product. Configure the products as indicated below.

Slave products:

1. Press repeatedly until 9-Ch shows on the display.
2. Press .
3. Use or to set the starting address to d 1.
4. Press .
5. Set the D-Fi USB to receive on a specific channel, 1–16.
6. Plug in the D-Fi USB.
7. Finish setting and connecting all the slave products.

Master product:

1. Set the master product to operate in standalone mode.
2. Set the D-Fi USB to transmit on the D-Fi channel the slaves are receiving.
3. Plug in the D-Fi USB.
   • All products must be set to the same DMX personality, DMX address, and D-Fi channel.
   • Configure all the slave products before configuring the master to transmit.
   • Never connect a DMX controller to a D-Fi channel configured for Master/Slave operation because the controller may interfere with the signals from the master.

ILS Mode
ILS (Integrated Lighting System) provides 4 modes that synchronize with the GigBAR MOVE+ILS: Modes 1 and 3 synchronize with side 1 of the GigBAR MOVE+ILS, whereas modes 2 and 4 synchronize with side 2 of the GigBAR MOVE+ILS. When linked, effects will sync with the most similar effect on the selected side of the GigBAR MOVE+ILS: Kinta effects will sync with one of the kintas, moving heads will sync with one of the moving heads, and wash effects will sync with one of the pars. Laser effects will sync with the laser, and strobe effects will sync with the strobe effects regardless of ILS mode. This product will synchronize with the par effects of the GigBAR MOVE+ILS, regardless of ILS mode.

To set the 4BAR Quad ILS to respond to an ILS signal:

1. Press repeatedly until iLS_ shows on the display.
2. Use or to select from iLS1 (side 1), iLS2 (side 2), iLS3 (side 1), or iLS4 (side 2).
3. Press .

Wireless Footswitch Operation

The included wireless footswitch provides quick access to preset colors, color-change programs, and sound activation through the 4BAR Quad ILS microphone.

To use the footswitch:

1. Connect the 4BAR Quad ILS to power. Turn the wireless footswitch on.
2. Press repeatedly until SEt shows on the display, and press .
3. Use or to select it, and press .
4. Use or to select on, and press .

The 4BAR Quad ILS footswitch will work properly in any mode, with a maximum unobstructed distance of 100 ft (30.5 m). You must turn on their setting from the 4BAR Quad ILS and navigate to Auto mode before using the footswitch.

Footswitch Battery
The wireless footswitch uses a 9-volt battery located under the battery cover on the bottom of the product, which can be replaced when necessary.

Battery Replacement
To replace the battery in the wireless footswitch:

1. Turn the power switch to the Off position.
2. Remove the battery cover by removing 2 screws with a Phillips-head screwdriver.
3. Remove the old battery from the housing and unplug it from the leads.
4. Replace with a new 9-volt battery, ensuring that the positive (+) and negative (-) leads correspond to the correct electrodes on the battery.
