Disconnect the power cord before replacing a fuse and always

replace with the same type fuse.

Fuse Replacement

The fuse is located

inside this

compartment.

Remove using a flat

head screwdriver.

With a flat head screwdriver wedge the fuse

holder out of its h

ousing. 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.

Fixture Linking

You will need a serial data link to run light shows of one or more fixtures using a DMX-512 controller

or to run synchronized shows on two or more fixtures set to a master/slave operating mode. The

combined number of channels required by all the fixtures on a serial data link determines the number

of fixtures the data link can support.

Important:

Fixtures 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

fixtures on one serial data link without the use of a DMX optically-isolated splitter may result in

deterioration of the digital DMX signal.

Maximum recommended serial data link distance:

500 meters (1640 ft.)

Maximum recommended number of fixtures on a serial data link: 32 fixtures

Data Cabling

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

cables directly from a dealer/distributor or construct your own cable. If you choose to create your own

cable please use data-grade cables that can carry a high quality signal and are less prone to

electromagnetic interference.

DMX DATA CABLE

Standard microphone cables cannot transmit DMX data reliably over long distances. The cable will

have the following characteristics:

2-conductor twisted pair plus a shield

Maximum capacitance between conductors – 30 pF/ft.

Maximum capacitance between conductor and shield – 55 pF/ft.

Maximum resistance of 20 ohms / 1000 ft.

Nominal impedance 100 – 140 ohms
