ADS will only work with other ads lights. Best Regards.
Do you mean ADJ or ADS? In either case, identical lights that can be daisy chained to run on internal programs or off of audio trigger will be described in their manuals. But if the lights run on DMX mode as well, any number and combination of DMX controlled lights can be run together as their are "daisy chained" together by the DMX (XLR) cabling by threquired operation set up. DMX lights are linked to gether by a cable entering the light at the DMX IN port, and then out through the DMX OUT port. And then on to the next nearest unit, and so on and so on, until all units are connected. Each lights can then be programmed to have its own DMX address to identify individually to what ever controller you are using.

An ADS Light
They do not use the DMX protocol, but you are right, any brand's DMX lights can be linked together.
Actually the ADS use DMX 512, BUT you can not set the address so they use channel one only. you could run a dmx line through other dmx lights but it wouldn't do much good.
oh. just wondering. thanxs
They do use DMX? Interesting.
