The BeamBar uses 13 DMX channels, so make sure that the next device uses an address that doesn’t overlap with this range.
SOUND-TO-LIGHT / AUTO
The sound-to-light operation allows to playback the integrated patterns to the
beat of music or any noises.
Select „ShΠd“ by navigating with the „Menu“ button and confirm with „Enter“:
- Standard selection is „SoUn“, which means that beam will be triggered with the beat of music:
- Auto operation allows to random playback the internal patterns. They are played back according to the internal system settings.
- You can select „Auto“ while „SoUn“ is selected by navigating with the „Up“ / „Down“ buttons and confirming with „Enter“:

The sensitivity can be adjusted between 1 and 100. Standard value is 50. Use the „Up“ / „Down“ button to change the selection and confirm with „Enter“.
MASTER-SLAVE
This laser is Master-Slave capable. This means that the Master laser system
can hand on a control signal to one or more Slave lasers, so all do the same.
Master-Slave only works with lasers of the same product series of the same
product generation.
-
A: Link lasers with DMX cable
To use Master-Slave operation, link the Master with the Slave lasers with DMX cables. Make sure to use the „DMX out“ port on the Master and the „DMX in“ on the Slave lasers. If several Slave lasers are used, link the first one to the Master laser and daisy-chain the control signal from the first Slave laser to the second, etc.. -
