3. SETUP

Disconnect the power cord before replacing a fuse and always replace with the same type fuse.

Fuse Replacement

With a flat-head screwdriver wedge the fuse holder out of its housing. Remove the damaged fuse from its holder and replace with exact same type fuse. Insert the fuse holder back in its place and reconnect power.

Product Linking

You will need a serial data link to run light shows of one or more products using a DMX-512 controller or to run synchronized shows on two or more products set to a master/slave operating mode. The combined number of channels required by all the products on a serial data link determines the number of products the data link can support.
Important: Products on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single
line. To comply with the EIA-485 standard no more than 32 devices should be connected on one data link. Connecting more than 32 products on one serial data link without the use of a DMX optically­isolated splitter may result in deterioration of the digital DMX signal.

Master/Slave Product Linking

inside this compartment. Remove using a flat head screwdriver.
1. Connect the (male) 3 pin connector side of the DMX cable to the output (female) 3 pin connector of the first product.
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the first product which will have a (female) 3 pin connector to the input connector of the next product consisting of a (male) 3 pin connector. Then, proceed to connect from the output as stated above to the input of the following product and so on.
and Standalone operation requires that the first product in the chain be initialized for this purpose via either settings in the control pane l or DIP­switches. Secondarily, the products that follow may also require a slave setting. Please consult the “Operating Instruct ions” sectio n in this manual for complete instructions for this type o f setup and configuration.

4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Standalone Mode (Sound-Active):
This mode allows a single product to run to the beat of the music, or the product will auto change in Auto Mode.
1) Set all dipswitches position to the Off position.
Mode Dipswitches
Sound Active 10 = Off
2) The product will react to the low frequencies of music via the internal microphone in
Sound-Active mode.
3) Use the audio sensitivity knob on the back of the product to make the product more or
less sensitive in Sound-Active mode. Turning the knob counterclockwise decreases the sensitivity; turning the knob clockwise increases the sensitivity.
Master/Slave Mode (Master Sound):
This mode will allow you to link up to 32 products together without a controller.
1) Use standard DMX cables to daisy chain your products together via the DMX
connector on the rear of the products. For longer cable runs we suggest a terminator at the last product.
2) Choose a product to function as the Master. Turn dipswitches to the Master position
on the product. The product must be the first product in line. Then simply chain the products together using DMX cable.

Set the start address using the group of DIP switches located usually on bottom of the product. Each dip switch has an associated value. Adding the value of each switch in the ON position will provide the start address. Figuring out which switches to toggle ON given a specific start address can be accomplished by determining which switch values will add up to the address value and turning these switches on. Do so by doing the following:
1) Determine the largest value switch that is less than the start address. Turn this switch on.
2) Subtract the value of the switch you just turned on from the starting address number.
3) Determine the largest value switch that is less than the remainder from the previous subtraction. Turn this switch on.
4) Subtract the value of the switch you just turned on from the remainder of the previous subtraction.
5) Repeat steps three and four until you have a remainder of zero.
Switch # 4 = 8 Switch # 2 = 2 Total = 10
Switch # 5 = 16 Switch # 4 = 8 Total = 24

5. APPENDIX

General Maintenance

To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear products should be cleaned frequently. Usage and environment are contributing factors in determining frequency. As a general rule, products should be cleaned at least twice a month. Dust build up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduced lamp life and increased mechanical wear. Be sure to power off product before conducting maintenance.
Unplug product from power. Use a vacuum or air compressor and a soft brush to remove dust collected on external vents and internal components. Clean all glass when the product is cold with a mild solution of glass cleaner or Isopropyl Alcohol and a soft lint free cotton cloth or lens tissue. Apply solution to the cloth or tissue and drag dirt and grime to the outside of the lens. Gently polish optical surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.
The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the product operates: damp, smoky or particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the product’s optics. Clean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid. - Always dry the parts carefully. - Clean the external optics at least every 20 days. Clean the internal optics at least every 30/60 days.

Returns Procedure

Returned merchandise must be sent prepaid and in the original packing, call tags will not be issued. Package must be clearly labeled with a Return Merchandise Authorization Number (RMA #). Products returned without an RMA # will be refused. Call Chauvet and request RMA # prior to shipping the product. Be prepared to provide the model number, serial number and a brief description of the cause for the return. Be sure to properly pack product, any shipping damage resulting from inadequate packaging is the customer’s responsibility. Chauvet reserves the right to use its own discretion to repair or replace product(s). As a suggestion, proper FedEx packing or double-boxing are recommended.
Note: If you are given an RMA #, please include the following information on a
piece of paper inside the box:
1) Your name
2) Your address
3) Your phone number
4) The RMA #
5) A brief description of the symptoms

Claims

Damage incurred in shipping is the responsibility of the shipper; therefore the damage must be reported to the carrier upon receipt of merchandise. It is the customer's responsibility to notify and submit claims with the shipper in the event that a product is damaged due to shipping. Any other claim for items such as missing component/part, damage not related to shipping, and concealed damage, must be made within seven (7) days of receiving merchandise.
