Safety Instructions
• Please keep this User Manual for future consultation. If you sell the unit to another
user, be sure t hat they als o receive this instruction booklet.
Please read these instructions carefully. It includes important information
about the installation, usage and maintenance of this product.
• Always make sure that you are connecting to the proper voltage, and that the line
voltage you are connecting to is not higher than that stated on the decal or r ear panel
of the fixture.
• This product is intended for indoor use only! To prevent risk of fire or shoc k, do not
expose f ixture to rain or moisture.
• Make sure there are no flammable materials clos e to the unit while operating.
• The unit must be installed in a location with adequate ventilation, at least 20 in (50 c m)
from adjacent surfaces. Be sure that no ventilation slots are blocked.
• Always disconnect fr om power source before servicing or replacing fus e and be sure to
replace with s ame fuse source.
• Secure fixture to fastening device using a safety chain.
• Maximum ambient temperature (Ta) is 104° F (40° C). Do not operate fixture at
temperatures higher than this.
• In the event of a serious operating problem, stop using the unit immediately. N ever try
to repair the unit by yours elf. Repairs carried out by unskilled people can lead to
damage or malfunction. Please contact the nearest authorized technical assistance
center.
• Never connect the device to a dimmer pack.
• Make sur e the power c ord is never crimped or damaged.
• Never disc onnect the power cord by pulling or tugging on the cord.
• Never carry the fixture directly from the cord. Always use the hanging/mounting
bracket.
• Avoid direct eye exposure to the light source while it is on.

or a number of sequential channels. The user must assign a starting address on the fixture that
indicates the first channel reserved in the controller. There are many different types of DMX

To link fixtures together you must obtain data cables. You can purchase CHAUVET® certified

This DMX mode enables the use of a universal DMX controller device. Each fixture requires a
start address f rom 1~512. A fixture requiring one or more channels for control begins to r ead the
data on the channel indicated by the start address. For example, a fixture that uses six DMX
channels and was addr essed to start on DMX channel 100, would read data from c hannels: 100,
101, 102, 103, 104, and 105. Choos e start address es so that the channels used do not overlap,
and note the start address selected for future reference.
