DMX Linking
The COREpar Q120 ILS can work with a DMX controller. If you are not familiar with DMX, download the DMX Primer from www.chauvetdj.com.
Starting Address
To ensure full access to all channels available in each DMX mode, the highest recommended DMX address is 504.
Master/Slave Connection
The COREpar Q120 ILS uses the DMX data connection and ILS for its Master/Slave mode.
IRC-6
The COREpar Q120 ILS can be operated with the CHAUVET Infrared Remote Control (IRC-6). For more information about the IRC-6, download instructions for the IRC-6 or the COREpar Q120 ILS User Manual from www.chauvetdj.com.

D-Fi USB Connectivity
The COREpar Q120 ILS is able to become a D-Fi wireless receiver/transmitter with the use of the D-Fi USB from CHAUVET DJ. Simply set the DIP switch D-Fi receiving/transmitting channel, plug it into the USB port then set the product’s DMX Personality and DMX Address.
WARNING! DO NOT plug anything other than a D-Fi USB into the USB port. Doing so may cause damage to the product.
Once plugged in, the D-Fi USB will take over the product. Wired DMX and manual display control/menu buttons will be unavailable until you unplug the D-Fi USB. The priority levels are:
- D-Fi USB
- Wired DMX
- IRC-6 Remote Control
- Manual Digital Display/Menu Buttons
Master/Slave Mode (D-Fi USB)
The D-Fi USB allows a single COREpar Q120 ILS product (the “master”) to control the actions of one or more COREpar Q120 ILS products (the “slaves”) without the need of a DMX controller or DMX cables. The master (transmitter) product will be set to operate in standalone mode, while the slave (receiver) products will be set to operate in DMX mode. Once set and connected, the slave products will operate in unison with the master product. Configure the products as indicated below.
Slave products:
- Press <MENU> repeatedly until 9-Ch shows on the display.
- Press <ENTER>.
- Use <UP> or <DOWN> to set the starting address to d 1.
- Press <ENTER>.
- Set the D-Fi USB to receive on a specific channel, 1–16.
- Plug in the D-Fi USB.
- Finish setting and connecting all the slave products.
Master product:
- Set the master product to operate in standalone mode.
- Set the D-Fi USB to transmit on the D-Fi channel the slaves are receiving on.
- Plug in the D-Fi USB.
All products must be set to the same DMX personality, DMX address, and D-Fi channel.
Configure all the slave products before configuring the master to transmit.
Never connect a DMX controller to a D-Fi channel configured for Master/Slave operation because the controller may interfere with the signals from the master.
ILS Mode
ILS (Integrated Lighting System) provides 4 modes that synchronize with the GigBAR MOVE+ILS: Modes 1 and 3 synchronize with side 1 of the GigBAR MOVE+ILS, whereas modes 2 and 4 synchronize with side 2 of the GigBAR MOVE+ILS. When linked, effects will sync with the most similar effect on the selected side of the GigBAR MOVE+ILS: Kinta effects will sync with one of the kintas, moving heads will sync with one of the moving heads, and wash effects will sync with one of the pars. Laser effects will sync with the laser, and strobe effects will sync with the strobe effects regardless of ILS mode.
This product will synchronize with the par effect on the selected side of the GigBAR MOVE+ILS.
To set the COREpar Q120 ILS to respond to an ILS signal:
- Press <MENU> repeatedly until iLS_ shows on the display.
- Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select from iLS1 (side 1), iLS2 (side 2), iLS3 (side 1), or iLS4 (side 2).
- Press <ENTER>
