Scanner Inverting/ Mirroring?

You probably know what I'm going to ask from the title but I'll ask anyway

 

I have two scanners (Chauvet Intimidator 2.0's) They're really nice and everything but there was one thing I've always wanted to do:

I've seen other lighting technicians do it. They seem to mirror the scanners together so no matter what effect the scanners do they always mirror.

 

I'm not talking about DMXing I know how to do all that! But its when they like cross over eachother?

 

Does anyone know how this is done!?

Some fittings have selectable x and y reverse on the DMX receiver coding, some controllers have this built in Certainly all the old NJD programmed controllers had x, y, x & y reverse available from the controller -just came as further cmx channels that the scanners could be set to.

From the dim and distant past, I vaguely remember you set the final dipswitch (not one of the DMX ones) to the opposite of the other scanner. i.e. One set to 0, the other set to 1.

 

That should invert the pan and tilt. Or maybe just the Pan...
