    Default 2 impossibleds

    Hi all,

    I have just bought another Impossibled and wondered what the best way was to use two at once. At the moment I have been using one as a stand alone unit and permanently keeping it on programme 8 I think it was.
    Just need the best way to rig up a pair so I can get the best out of these lights.
    Cheers, Andy

    You need to change one of the units to a master and one to a slave. Get a CA-8 controller and you have the ability to blackout the units too.

    don't think so you will need a dedicated dmx desk for that, i think the rovers would be lost as an effect turned on at the same time as 2 impossiled so in my opinion keep them seperate to get the best out of both

    Will only work if all units have all the same channels.

    But for ImpossibLED and Rovers the answer is NO. as Rovers will have a pan and tilt channel which the ImpossibLEDs won't so you can not run all the units off 1 CA-8 controller.

    You could either get a second CA-8 controller or get a DMX lighting desk.
