Introduction

Congratulations on the purchase of your new CHAUVET controller. We are confident you will enjoy many
trouble free hours with this unit. To assist with the care and use of the product we have prepared this short
guide. The SF-4005 is a unique 2 or 4 channel chaser / Timer. The unit features a selector switch for timed
chase, fast chase or sound activated chase.

Operation

This lighting effect has been designed to function on a mains power supply of either 120V~60Hz or
230V~50Hz and has been fitted with a suitable power plug for use with your local voltage. Check the label
and voltage selector switch (if fitted) on the unit and the power plug for the correct voltage.

Installation / Mounting

This unit has been designed to be hung on a truss in various ways. You may utilize the integral bracket or a
suitable clamp. It is recommended that, for safety purposes, products be properly mounted using a suitable
safety cable. CHAUVET offers a range of items, which are ideal for safe mounting.

Replacing Fuses

If the unit does not function at all when connected to the main power supply then it is highly likely that the
fuse has blown.

Disconnect from main power supply before attempting to replace the fuse.

Function Switch - This is a three position switch

1.

Timer - In this position (left) the speed control know allows the choice of variable chase speeds
of from 2 minutes to 15 minutes.This position is the only function suitable for effects lighting.

Chase - The center position is for fast chases of pin spots and par cans. The speed control will
allow the user to select from fast to very fast chases.

Sound - By selecting the far right position, the SF-4005 will be in sound active mode. This cas
position is suitable for pin spots and par cans only.

In order to replace the fuse, disconnect from the main power supply first, and then unscrew the fuseholder
cover to reveal the fuse. The unit has a label attached which indicates the correct fuse rating and you
will also find this listed as part of the specifications for the unit later in this guide. It is most important that
replacement fuses are of the correct rating. Failure to use the correct fuse could damage the lighting effect
beyond economic repair.

The fuse should simply be placed inside the holder and the screw cap replaced, when this is done connect
to the main power supply to check. If the unit is still not working then please contact CHAUVET.

Cleaning

The body of the unit should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. We recommend internal cleaning be carried
out by a fully qualified technician.

Maintenance & Servicing

Work on internal parts should be carried out by a qualified technician. Removal of covers other than to
replace the lamps or the fuseholder is considered a breach of warranty and will not be covered under any
such agreement unless authorized first by Chauvet.
