The Intimidator Free Spot 60 ILS has an auto-ranging power supply, and it can work with an input voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. To determine the product’s power requirements (circuit breaker, power outlet, and wiring), use the current value listed on the label affixed to the product’s back panel or refer to the product’s specifications chart. The listed current rating indicates the product’s average current draw under normal conditions.
Always connect the product to a protected circuit (a circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure the product has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.
To eliminate unnecessary wear and improve its lifespan, completely disconnect the product from power via breaker or by unplugging it during periods of non-use.
Never connect the product to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0 to 100% switch.

The Intimidator Free Spot 60 ILS uses up to 14 DMX channels in a 14CH DMX mode, which defines the highest configurable address to 499.
For more information about the DMX protocol, download the DMX Primer from: www.chauvetdj.com To select the starting address, do the following:
1. Press <MENU> repeatedly until DMX Address shows on the display.
2. Press <ENTER>.
3. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select the starting address, from 001–499.

Operation

ILS Mode

ILS (Integrated Lighting System) provides 4 modes that synchronize with the GigBAR MOVE+ILS: Modes 1 and 3 synchronize with side 1 of the GigBAR MOVE+ILS, whereas modes 2 and 4 synchronize with side 2 of the GigBAR MOVE+ILS. When linked, effects will sync with the most similar effect on the selected side of the GigBAR MOVE+ILS: Kinta effects will sync with one of the kintas, moving heads will sync with one of the moving heads, and wash effects will sync with one of the pars. Laser effects will sync with the laser, and strobe effects will sync with the strobe effects regardless of ILS mode.
This product will synchronize with the spot effect on the selected side of the GigBAR MOVE+ILS, as well as the laser and strobes.
To set the Intimidator Free Spot 60 ILS to respond to an ILS signal:
1. Press <MENU> repeatedly until ILS shows on the display.
2. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select from ILS1 (side 1), ILS2 (side 2), ILS3 (side 1), or ILS4 (side 2).
3. Press <ENTER>.

Master/Slave Mode

The Master/Slave mode allows a single Intimidator Free Spot 60 ILS product (the “master”) to control the actions of one or more Intimidator Free Spot 60 ILS products (the “slaves”) without the need of a DMX controller. The master product will be set to operate in Standalone, whereas the slave products will be set to operate in Slave mode. Once set and connected, the slave products will operate in unison with the master product. Configure the products as indicated below.
Slave products:
1. Press <MENU> repeatedly until Setup shows on the display. Press <ENTER>.
2. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select DFI. Press <ENTER>.
3. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select RX. Press <ENTER>.
4. Press <MENU> repeatedly until Run Mode shows on the display. Press <ENTER>.
5. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select Slave. Press <ENTER>.
6. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select the slave unit(s), from Slave1–4. Press <ENTER>.
7. Set the DMX address to 001.
8. Set the D-Fi to receive a specific channel, 1–16.
9. Finish setting and connecting all the slave products.
Master product:
1. Set the master product to operate in standalone mode.
2. Set the D-Fi to transmit on the D-Fi channel the slaves are receiving on.
For more information on how to activate the Intimidator Free Spot 60 ILS built-in D-Fi, see D-Fi Settings.
All products must be set to the same DMX personality, DMX address, and D-Fi channel.
Configure all the slave products before configuring the master to transmit.
Never connect a DMX controller to a D-Fi channel configured for Master/Slave operation because the controller may interfere with the signals from the master.

Maintenance

5. Maintenance

Product Maintenance

Dust build-up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduction of the light source’s life and/or mechanical wear. To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, clean all lighting products at least twice a month. However, be aware that usage and environmental conditions could be contributing factors to increase the cleaning frequency.
To clean the product, follow the instructions below:
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 surface/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.
