Boom Box FX3

using the IEC input and output sockets. The quantity that can be
connected is 8 fixtures maximum @ 120V, and 16 fixtures maxi-
mum @ 230V. After the maximum amount of fixtures has been
reached, you will need to use a new power outlet. They must be
the same fixtures. DO NOT mix fixtures.

Power Cord Daisy Chain
Master-Slave Operation
This function will allow you to link up to
16 units together and operate without a controller. In a Master-Slave
set up, one unit will act as the controlling 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 first 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. On the Master unit press the MENU button until “
SLND
” is dis-
played, and press ENTER. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to
scroll to the “
MAST
” setting and press ENTER.
3. After setting the Master unit to the master setting find and set
your desired operating mode.
4. On the slave units press the MENU button until “
SLND
” is dis-
played, and press ENTER. Choose either “
SL 1
” or “
SL 2
” and
press ENTER. See page 10 for more info.
5. The slave units will now follow the Master unit.

UC IR/Airstream Control
The UC IR (sold separately) infrared remote gives you control of
various functions (See below). To control the fixture you must aim the
remote at the front of the fixture and be no more than 30 feet away.
The Boom Box FX3 is also compatible with the Airstream IR app.
The IR transmitter is available through any ADJ dealer or through the
ADJ parts website. Plug the transmitter into the headphone jack of
your iOS phone or tablet. To control your IR fixture you must raise
the volume to the maximum on your iOS phone or tablet and aim
the transmitter at the front of the fixture and be no more than 15

the app is a free download from the app store for your iOS phone or

fixture you are using. Please see below for IR functions including the
corresponding app page.
