• Always connect the product to a grounded circuit to avoid the risk of electrocution.

• Do not touch the product’s housing when operating because it may be very hot.

Mounting and Rigging

• This product is not intended for permanent installation.

• This product is for indoor use only! To prevent risk of fire or shock, do not expose this product to

rain or moisture. (IP20)

• CAUTION: When transferring product from extreme temperature environments, (e.g. cold truck to

warm humid ballroom) condensation may form on the internal electronics of the product. To avoid causing a failure, allow product to fully acclimate to the surrounding environment before connecting it to power.

• Mount this product in a location with adequate ventilation, at least 20 in (50 cm) from adjacent

surfaces.

• Make sure there are no flammable materials close to this product while it is operating.

• When hanging this product, always secure to a fastening device using a safety cable.

• Never carry the product by the power cord.

Power and Wiring

• Make sure the power cord is not crimped or damaged.

• Always make sure you are connecting this product to the proper voltage in accordance with the

specifications in this manual or on the product’s specification label.

• To eliminate unnecessary wear and improve its lifespan, during periods of non-use completely

disconnect the product from power via breaker or by unplugging it.

• Never connect this product to a dimmer pack or rheostat.

• Make sure to replace the fuse with another of the same type and rating.

• Never disconnect this product by pulling or tugging on the power cable.

Operation

• Do not operate this product if there is damage on the housing, lenses, or cables. Have the damaged

• Do not cover the ventilation slots when operating to avoid internal overheating.

• The maximum ambient temperature is 113 °F (45 °C). Do not operate the product at higher temperatures.

• In the event of a serious operation problem, stop using this product immediately!

If your Chauvet product requires service, contact Chauvet Technical Support.

Expected LED Lifespan

LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time, primarily because of heat. LEDs that are arranged in clusters experience higher operating temperatures than single LEDs. For this reason, operating clustered LEDs at their fullest intensity significantly reduces the LEDs’ lifespan. Under normal conditions, this lifespan is 90,000 to 100,000 hours. If extending this lifespan is vital, lower the operating temperature by improving the ventilation around the product, thus reducing the ambient temperature. In addition, limiting the overall projection intensity may extend the LEDs’ lifespan.

Master/Slave Connectivity

The Master/Slave mode allows a Ovation E-930VW (the master) to control one or more Ovation E-930VW products (the slaves) without a DMX controller. One Ovation E-930VW becomes the master when running an auto program, or by being in Static mode.

You must configure each slave’s control panel to operate in Slave mode. During Master/Slave operation, the slaves will operate in unison with the master.

DO NOT connect a DMX controller to products operating in Master/Slave mode. The DMX controller signals may interfere with the signals from the master.

Operation

Configuration (Standalone)

Use standalone configuration to operate the product without a DMX controller.

Static Mode

The Static mode allows for an unchanging color without a DMX controller.

Color Temperature

1. Go to the Static main level.

2. Select Color Temperature.

3. Select the desired color temperature (see Preset Color Temperature Chart

4. Select the desired output level (<000–255>).

Manual Color Mixer

1. Go to the Static main level.

2. Select Manual Color Mixer.

3. Select the color to edit (Red, Orange, Green, Royal blue, Blue, or Lime).

4. Select the desired output level for that color (<000–255>).

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until product outputs as desired.

Master/Slave

The Master/Slave mode allows a group of Ovation E-930VW products (the slaves) to simultaneously duplicate the output of another Ovation E-930VW (the master) without a DMX controller. To set each of the slaves:

1. Go to the Master/Slave main level

2. Select Slave.

To set the master:

1. Go to the Master/Slave main level

2. Select Master.

3. Select a static setting.

• The master is the one that runs a program whether in Auto or Static mode.

• Do not connect a DMX controller to the products configured for Master/Slave operation. The DMX controller may interfere with signals from the master.

• The master should be the first product in the daisy chain.

Dimmer Profiles

This setting determines how fast the output of the Ovation E-930VW changes when you modify the output value. This setting provides four different options to simulate the dimming curve of an incandescent lighting product.

1. Go to the Dimmer Mode main level.

2. Select a dimmer curve (Off, Dimmer 1, Dimmer 2, or Dimmer 3).

Off: The output is proportional (linear) to the dimmer channel value. Dimmer 1-3: The output follows the dimmer value based on the corresponding dimmer curve, Dimmer 1 being the fastest.

White Balance

This setting determines the maximum output values for each color, which affects the appearance of a full output white.

1. Go to the White Balance main level.

2. Select Off (the product will use a default setting) or Manual.

3. For Manual mode, select the color value to edit (Red, Orange, Green, Royal Blue, Blue, or Lime).

4. Set the maximum value for the selected color (125–255).

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the product outputs as desired.

LED Frequency

This option changes the Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) frequency of the LEDs on the Ovation E-930VW.

1. Go to the LED Frequency main level.

2. Select PWM Frequency (600Hz, 1200Hz, 2000Hz, 4000Hz, 6000Hz, or 25Khz).

Operation

Fan Mode

This setting determines how the fan speed on the Ovation E-930VW is set.

1. Go to the Fan Mode main level

2. Select Auto (fan speed will increase or decrease based on product temperature), Off (fan will stay off. Product output will decrease based on product temperature), Silent (fan will maintain a

constant silent speed), or On (fan speed will always be at maximum).

WARNING: When operating in Fan Mode: Off, the fixture will become hotter to the touch than when using other fan modes. Use proper protective equipment to prevent burns. Keep a safe distance from flammable objects.

NOTICE: When operating in Fan Mode: Off, output of the fixture will be reduced and will not reach the same levels as when using other fan modes.

Back Light

This setting allows for selection of the amount of time the backlight on the Ovation E-930VW’s display stays on after the last button is pressed on the control panel.

1. Go to the Back Light main level.

2. Select On (remains on), 10S (10 seconds), 20S (20 seconds), or 30S (seconds).

System Information

This option displays the total number of hours the product has run, the installed software version, and the product’s UID.

1. Go to the Information main level.

2. Select Fixture Hours, Version, or UID.

Factory Reset

This option restores the Ovation E-930VW to factory default settings.

1. Go to the Reset Factory main level.

2. Select No or Yes.

Technical Information

5. Technical Information

Product Maintenance

To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, clean this product frequently. Usage and environment are contributing factors in determining the cleaning frequency.

Clean this product at least twice a month. Dust build-up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduced light source life and increased mechanical wear.

To clean the product:

1. Unplug the product from power.

2. Wait until the product is at room temperature.

3. Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust collected on the external vents.

4. Clean all transparent surfaces with a mild soap solution, ammonia-free glass cleaner, or isopropyl alcohol.

5. Apply the solution directly to a soft, lint-free cotton cloth or a lens-cleaning tissue.

6. Softly drag any dirt or grime to the outside of the transparent surface.

7. Gently polish the transparent surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.

Always dry the transparent surfaces carefully after cleaning them.
