Unpacking Instructions
Immediately upon receiving a fixture, carefully unpack the carton, check the contents to ensure that
all parts are present, and have been received in good condition. Notify the shipper immediately and
retain packing material for inspection if any parts appear damaged from shipping or the carton itself
shows signs of mishandling. Save the carton and all packing materials. In the event that a fixture
must be returned to the factory, it is important that the fixture be returned in the original factory box
and packing.

Safety Instructions
Please read these instructions carefully, which includes important
information about the installation, usage and maintenance of this
product.
• Please keep this User Guide for future consultation. If you sell the unit to another user, be sure that
they also receive this instruction booklet.
• Always make sure that you are connecting to the proper voltage, and that the line voltage you are
connecting to is not higher than that stated on the decal or rear panel of the fixture.
• The unit must be installed in a location with adequate ventilation, at least 20in (50cm) from adjacent
surfaces. Be sure that no ventilation slots are blocked.
• Always disconnect from power source before servicing or replacing lamp or fuse and be sure to
replace with same lamp source.
• Secure fixture to fastening device using a safety chain. Never carry the fixture solely by its head. Use
its carrying handles.
• Maximum ambient temperature (Ta) is 104°F (40°C). Do not operate fixture at temperatures higher
than this.
• In the event of a serious operating problem, stop using the unit immediately. Never try to repair the
unit by yourself. Repairs carried out by unskilled people can lead to damage or malfunction. Please
contact the nearest authorized technical assistance center. Always use the same type spare parts.
• Never connect the device to a dimmer pack.
• Make sure the power cord is never crimped or damaged.
• Never disconnect the power cord by pulling or tugging on the cord.
• Avoid direct eye exposure to the light source while it is on.
• Do not daisy chain power to more than 4 or 9 units @120volts.
Caution! There are no user serviceable parts inside the unit. Do not open the housing or
attempt any repairs yourself. In the unlikely event your unit may require service,
please contact CHAUVET at: 954-929-1115.
Caution! After prolonged periods of operation, the fixture chassis may reach high
temperatures. Use caution when handling this fixture.
LED Expected Lifespan
LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time. HEAT is the dominant factor that leads to the
acceleration of this decline. Packaged in clusters, LEDs exhibit higher operating temperatures than in
ideal or singular optimum conditions. For this reason when all color LEDs are used at their fullest
intensity, life of the LEDs is significantly reduced. It is estimated that a viable lifespan of 40,000 to
50,000 hours will be achieved under normal operational conditions. If improving on this lifespan
expectancy is of a higher priority, place care in providing for lower operational temperatures. This
may include climatic-environmental and the reduction of overall projection intensity

3. SETUP
AC Power
This fixture has an auto-switching switch-mode power supply that can accommodate a wide range of
input voltages. The only thing necessary to do before powering on the unit is to make sure the line
voltage you are applying is within the range of accepted voltages. This fixture will accommodate
between 100V and 240V AC 50-60 Hz. All fixtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit and
cannot be run off a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer
channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.
This fixture is designed for power linking from one COLORado™ Batten 80i to another COLORado™
Batten 80i fixture. Each fixture ships with Neutrik power input cables (standard Edison male-to-female
6ft A-type Neutrik 3-conductor connector).
Warning! All fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.
Depending on the application, the lighting fixture may require a different connector. Please refer to
the below factory-installed Neutrik twist-lock terminator wire color code if installing a wire connector.

Mounting
Orientation
This fixture may be mounted in any safe position.
Rigging
The fixture includes a mounting yoke to which a rigging clamp can be attached. You
must supply your own clamp and make sure the clamp is capable of supporting the
weight of this fixture. It is recommended to use at least 2 mounting points per
fixture. You can order “C” and “O”-clamps from any CHAUVET dealer or distributor
(CLP-15, CLP-06 recommended).
Note: There are 2 types of applications for this fixture: floor stand for up lighting, and
overhead use for down lighting. If you are using this fixture for up lighting, then you must
use 2 safety cables/chains for each fixture in addition to the mounting brackets.
If hanging the fixture for over head use, then please follow the below steps.
1. Block access below the work area and use suitable and stable platform
when installing or servicing fixture.
2. Safety cables must always be used. The safety cable must be capable of
holding 10 times the weight of the fixture.
3. Verify the structure can hold 10 times the weight of all to-be installed
fixtures.
4. This fixture may be mounting with clamps attached to the mounting bracket,
or attached directly to the fixture, as shown below.
Caution! After prolonged periods of operation, the fixture chassis may reach high
temperatures. This fixture must be mounted in a ventilated location, as it is
fan/convection cooled.

Lens Assembly Installation/Replacement
The COLORado™Batten 80i comes with 15° lens assembly pre-installed from the factory. However, there are 3
other optional lens kits [CL18X10, CL18X15 (installed), CL18X30].available as accessories which will alter the beam
angle. Please follow the below instructions for proper replacement/installation.
1.
2.
2. Plastic LED cover
1. Remove 1 of the side, plastic covers (black), by removing the screws that hold it in place.
2. After removing the side plastic cover, slide out the plastic LED cover (clear).
3. Remove the screws that hold each of the 2 lens assemblies in place.
4. There are screws which hold the assembly together and which prevent the individual lenses
from moving. Remove these to gain access to them.
5. Arrange the new lens kit in the lens assembly (holder) and follow reverse steps to close the
fixture.
Warning! When replacing the lens assembly, please make sure that the power is
disconnected from the fixture beforehand.

Fixture Linking
You will need a serial data link to run light shows of one or more fixtures using a DMX-512 controller
or to run synchronized shows on two or more fixtures set to a master/slave operating mode. The
combined number of channels required by all the fixtures on a serial data link determines the number
of fixtures the data link can support.
Important: Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line. To comply with the EIA-
Maximum recommended serial data link distance: 500 meters (1640 ft.)
Maximum recommended number of fixtures on a serial data link: 32 fixtures
Data Cabling
To link fixtures together you must obtain data cables. You can purchase CHAUVET-certified DMX
cables directly from a dealer/distributor or construct your own cable. If you choose to create your own
cable please use data-grade cables that can carry a high quality signal and are less prone to
electromagnetic interference.
485 standard no more than 32 devices should be connected on one data link. Connecting more
than 32 fixtures on one serial data link without the use of a DMX optically-isolated spl itter may
result in deterioration of the digital DMX signal.
DMX DATA CABLE
Use a Belden© 9841 or equivalent cable which meets the specifications for EIA RS-485 applications.
Standard microphone cables cannot transmit DMX data reliably over long distances. The cable will
have the following characteristics:
2-conductor twisted pair plus a shield
Maximum capacitance between conductors – 30 pF/ft.
Maximum capacitance between conductor and shield – 55 pF/ft.
Maximum resistance of 20 ohms / 1000 ft.
Nominal impedance 100 – 140 ohms
CABLE CONNECTORS
Cabling must have a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR connector on the other end.
