Operating Modes: The KAOS can operate in three different modes.
In each mode you can run the fixture as a stand alone fixture or in a
master/slave confiugration. This next section will detail the differences
in the operating modes.
• Sound Active mode -
The fixture will react to sound, chasing through the built-in programs.
• Show mode -
Choose 1 of 15 show modes to run.
• DMX control mode -
This function will allow you to control each individual fixtures traits
with a standard DMX-512 controller.
Universal DMX Control: This function allows you to use a Elation®
universal DMX-512 controller to control the chases and patterns,
dimmer and strobe. A DMX controller allows you to create unique
programs tailored to your individual needs.
1. The KAOS has 5 DMX Channel modes; 2 Channels, 6 Channels,
15 Channels, 23 Channels & 45 Channels. See pages 21-30 for
detailed description of the DMX values and traits.
2. To control your fixture in DMX mode, follow the set-up procedures
on pages 7-9 as well as the set-up specifications that are includ-
ed with your DMX controller.
3. Use the controller’s faders to control the various DMX fixture traits.
4. This will allow you to create your own programs.
5. Follow the instructions on page 11 to select your desired DMX
channel mode and to set the DMX address.
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.
Sound Active Mode: This mode allows either single unit or several
units linked together, to run to the beat of the music.
1. Press the MENU button until “Sound State” is displayed, and
press ENTER.
2. Press the UP or DOWN buttons to choose either OFF or ON, and
press ENTER, then press and hold MENU for 3 seconds to con-

KAOS Operation
Master-Slave Conguration This function will allow you to link up
to 16 units together and operate without a controller. The units will be
sound activated. In a Master-Slave set-up one unit will act as the con-
trolling unit and the others will react to the controlling units programs.
Any unit can act as a Master or as a Slave.
1. Using approved DMX data cables, daisy chain your units togeth-
er via the XLR connector on the rear of the units. Remember the
Male XLR connector is the input and the Female XLR connector
is the output. The rst unit in the chain (master) will use the female
XLR connector only - The last unit in the chain will use the male
XLR connector only. For longer cable runs we suggest a termina-
tor at the last fixture.
2. Press the MENU button until “Slave Mode” is displayed, and
press ENTER. Press the UP or DOWN buttons so that “Master” is
displayed and press ENTER. Next, set the Master unit to your
desired operating mode.
3. For the slave units press the MENU button until “Slave Mode” is
displayed, and Press ENTER. Use the UP or DOWN buttons to set
the slave units to either “Slave 1” or “Slave 2”.
4. The slave units will now follow the Master unit.
