synchronized light show without the need of an external controller. The fixtures will react to
sound chasing to synchronized light show.
• DMX control mode - This function will allow you to control each individual fixtures traits
with a standard DMX-512 controller such as the Elation® Show Designer 2.

controller such as the Elation® DMX Operator II™ or Elation® Show Designer 2™ to
control head movement, the color wheel, the shutter (strobe), and all other DMX traits.

traits.This will allow you to create your own programs.
