64 LED Par Can

yes u can use XLR cables as dmx cables. they should work fine. also i think maybe if u set one as a master and the other as a slave?? also on a side note get compuware!! it rocks. and is such a nice software. peace! jingles.

How do you set to master/slave it don't say in the manual ??? all so where can I get compuware software.

actually my bad i thought they might have master and slave operation. but they don't if i were u i would choose either auto or RGB modes. those might suit you a lil better. but keep in mind since u are getting rid o ur controller you are losing most control over this light. also about compuware you wil have to contact your local adj/elation dealer for more info. peace! jingles. anything else??

They DO have master slave function. There is no master setting on the master. It is the first one in the "chain". Set the mode you want the other ones to follow on the "master" and then set the rest behind it to "sla". Will work just as you wanted. Cheers!!

Oh, now I'm not so sure... I was thinking aobut the 64B LED PRO unit... I am loking at the manual for the 64 LED can, and I can't see where they will sync... Hmmm. Might have to go higher up...

I really don't recommend using standard XLR cabling for DMX. DMX works much better using 120-ohm cabling as opposed to the 600-ohm cabling you're using for microphones. You'll get better reliability and performance.

Then again, I am running my DMX down 200 feet of 600-ohm cable down my main audio whip and it works just fine, not to mention all the other microphone cabling that goes on after that(up to another 100 feet maybe?). However, I am getting/building my own DMX cabling to my specifications soon. My suggestion: good labelling! Don't mix and match, you'll lose some of your top end using the 120-ohm cabling for microphones.
