OPERATION:
Universal DMX Control: This unit allows you to use any universal DMX-512 controller to control head
movement, the color wheel, the gobo wheel, and the shutter (strobe). A DMX controller allows you to create
unique programs tailored to your individual needs. Follow the set-up specifications that are included with your
DMX controller.
1. The Electro MH25R™ has an 8 channel mode and 12 channel mode.
2. To select your desired DMX mode please see the next page under “[Link]”. Press the UP button until
“[Link]” is displayed, then press ENTER. Select your desired DMX Channel Mode and press ENTER.
3. After you have selected your desired DMX Channel Mode, press the UP button until “A001” is displayed,
press ENTER.
4. Now press the UP button to set your desired address and press ENTER. Connect your DMX Controller.
5. Use the controller’s faders to control the various DMX fixture traits.
6. For longer cable runs (more than a 100 feet) use a terminator on the last fixture.
7. For help operating in DMX mode consult the manual included with your DMX controller.

Stand-Alone Operation (Sound Active or Test Mode): This mode allows a single unit to run to the
beat of the music.
SOUND ACTIVE MODE:
1. To activate Sound Active mode, press the MODE button until the main menu is displayed. Press either the
UP or DOWN button until “[Link]” is displayed.
2. Press either the UP or DOWN buttons until “ON” is displayed. If “ON” is already displayed then press
ENTER. The unit will now run to the beat of the music.

TEST MODE: When power is supplied to the unit this is the default setting.
1. To reactivate the Test mode, press the MODE button until main menu is displayed. Press either the UP or
DOWN buttons until the LCD will display “[Link]”, press Enter. The LCD will now display “[Link].1”, press
ENTER. The unit will now run a automatic show.

Master-Slave Operation (Sound Active or Test Mode): This function will allow you to link up to
16 units together and operate without a controller. The units can be sound activate or run in a test mode. In
Master-Slave operation one unit will act as the controlling unit and the others will react to the controlling units
programs. Any unit can act as a Master or as a Slave.
1. This is a very simple process. Using standard XLR microphone cables, daisy chain your units together via
the XLR connector on the rear of the units. Remember the Male XLR connector is the input and the Fe-
male XLR connector is the output. For longer cable runs we suggest a terminator at the last fixture. You do
not have to assign the units Master/Slave. They will automatically fall into Master/Slave mode when
connected.
