Does any body use theses in master slave mode? I'm trying to use it as the master with a different dmx controlled dimmer as the slave

Address it to the same address as your dimmer you want to have it copy. Use in DMX mode not slave mode. The Dimmer should overlap channels and respond to the same DMX signal no matter what made or model of dimmer if the channels are overlapping.

Are you trying to get two dimmers to mirror each other? If so, just set them both to the same DMX address. Assuming of course, you are using a DMX controller, and not using the onboard "program" settings (this item will not work as a controller).

Currently I am using it with UStream and it only displays Master Control. Sorry I couldn't be more help! : )

I believe you are referring to: Lutron Diva Magnetic Low-Voltage Dimmer. Having wired home and built my own stereo from components I will say "YES". This leaves you the controller for changing colors. (just remember if it "does not come on" with the installed switch.....then someone...has turned the lights"off" from the remote.) AND: the remote may not respond while you are dimmed on the wall switch as you are also reducing the receiver on the led cable. It most likely WILL NOT respond when dimmed. I have a photo of what I did and will try to upload it after this is posted (No place for a photo here with this respond) I used poster putty to mount my controller on the wall against a door sill.

Not necesarily. You can use it as automatic or configure them to just one color or pretty much anything you want. DMX is not needed

Mine don't work at all with DMX. That's the flaw with these Chinese made lights. Also why they're so cheap! What I do is set one to do whatever (strobe, fade, react to audio) with no controller and the rest I set to slave and that works. I just wish the DMX controller would work. Bah.

this products can be set as "Master-Slave" without a DMX controller while connected with more than 2 unites. It also contains built-in program to operate without a dmx controller.

The Lights are DMX controlled meaning you can use a DMX controller or Daisy chain them. Instruction sheet included. You can dim them by the controls on the back and change colors as well. I daisy chained them. Work very well and sturdy. Each has a DMX in and out as well.

These ARE dimmable drivers - that is, the dimmer function is built in. From my understanding, you should be looking whether or not the power supplies are switching, in order for proper dimming. If you are asking whether or not u can use a dimmer (this controller)on a dimmer (switching power supply or secondary dimmer), I do not know.

Check the manual that came with it. If using more than 1, you need first one set as "Master" and all others as "Slave". Start cabling with OUT on master to IN on first slave and daisy chain in this manner. DO put a label on the Master so you always know which one to start with.

MASTERThe DX5e transmitter can be used as a master but the slavetransmitter must have the same programming (i.e. reverseswitch positions) as the master.SLAVEWhen using the DX5e transmitter as a slave with anotherDX5e, it's necessary to match all the reverse switchpositions

I have not tried this. I think dimmable drivers weren't available when I purchased. I got dimmers that connected between the driver output and the strip lights and they work great. Whether you could use a fixed voltage driver with a dimmer on the input side I do not know. I am guessing not, or not with much a range anyway. That might be a good experiment.

I will setting mine up with a dimmer pack for the first time in a couple days. What software are you using? Im running QLS on one system and Freestyler on another.

No, the extra wire that you see actually has the IR receiver on the end of it. You need line of sight between the remote and the end of that wire. The infrared controller is the only way to control the fixture. You cannot use a DMX controller. The IR remote however can control more than one light as long as you have line of sight for all your fixtures. All the lights will however display the same color/effect. If you want to have different colors or effects on different lights, you would need to shield the lights so that the IR signal was only reaching one light at a time. I have 8 of these. One remote controls 4 lights, and the other 4 need a different controler. Apparently they came from different batches and some use a different IR frequency than others, so I would recommend buying all you need at the same time. Also, if using a color changing effect, not all lights will change colors at exactly the same time. Some are a little faster than others so they get out of sync. The timing device used to control the color change macros is not very precisie.

Hmm, I found this while running a search for dimmer switches! I'm curious if anyone knows if there is a similar switch made that also has a dimmer option included? I wasn't looking for something like this initially but love the idea!!

I'm fairly certain mine can do that. They dedinateky dont need dmx to work, you just flip the dipswitches.

The master & slave dimmer will only control one series of lights. If the two light sets were wired together and one light switch controlled both at the same time, then the dimmers & remote you bought will control them all at once. However, the two light sets won't be controlled separately with the remote you got. Either all at once, or you'll need seperate dimmers with remote for your second set of lights. I hope that helps you. Good luck!

The 3way wiring becomes useless. I use the 5 associated with a 15 or LRM dimmer. You will need an Aeon Labs Minimote or similar to associate them unless you have a controller like Vera. The 5 is basically a scene controller. Actually just replaced a 4way with this configuration today.
