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.

• 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).

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.
