In the unlikely event that your CHAUVET® product may require service, please
contact CHAUVET® Technical Support.
LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time, mostly because of heat. Packaged in
clusters, LEDs exhibit higher operating temperatures than in ideal or singular optimum
conditions. For this reason, using all color LEDs at their fullest intensity significantly
reduces the LEDs’ lifespan. Under normal conditions, this lifespan can be of 40,000 to
50,000 hours. If extending this lifespan expectancy is vital, lower the operational
temperature by improving fixture ventilation and reducing the external temperature. In
addition, limiting the overall projection intensity may also help to extend the LEDs life.

Setup
3. Setup
This product has an auto-ranging power supply that can work with an input voltage
range of 100~240 VAC, 50/60 Hz.
AC Power
Make sure that you are connecting the Q-Spot™ 160-LED to the proper voltage, as per
the specifications in this guide, the product’s manual or on the product’s sticker.
Always connect the Q-Spot™ 160-LED to a protected circuit with an appropriate
electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.
To determine the power requirements for the Q-Spot™ 160-LED see the label affixed to
the side of the fixture. Alternatively, you may refer to the corresponding specifications
chart in the Technical Information chapter of this manual.
The listed current rating indicates the maximum current draw during normal operation.
For more information, you may download the “Sizing the Circuit Breakers” document
from the CHAUVET® Web site.
Never connect the Q-Spot™ 160-LED to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer
circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0 to 100% switch.
The Q-Spot™ 160-LED comes with a power input cord terminated with an Edison plug
(US market). If the power cord that came with your fixture has no plug or you need to
change the Edison plug, use the table below to wire the new plug.

Make sure to disconnect the fixture’s power cord before replacing a blown fuse,
and always replace it with a fuse of the same type and rating.
1) With a flat head screwdriver, wedge the fuse holder out of its housing and remove
the blown fuse from its holder.
Fuse Replacement
2) Replace the blown fuse with a fuse of the exact same type and rating.
3) Insert the fuse holder back in its place, and reconnect power.

Setup
You may link any Q-Spot™ 160-LED fixture to a DMX controller using a standard DMX
serial connection. If using other DMX compatible fixtures with a Q-Spot™ 160-LED
fixture, it is possible to control them individually with a single DMX controller.
DMX Linking
If you are not familiar with the DMX standard, or if you need information about the DMX
cables needed to link the Q-Spot™ 160-LED fixture to a DMX controller, you may
download the “DMX Primer” document from the CHAUVET® Web site.
The Q-Spot™ 160-LED uses the standard DMX data connection for its **DMX mode(s),
<list of modes>**. You will find information about these DMX modes in the Introduction
chapter (brief description), the Operation Instructions chapter (configuration details), and
the DMX Values section (individual channel values).
DMX Modes
The Master/Slave mode allows a Q-Spot™ 160-LED fixture to control one or more Q-
Spot™ 160-LED fixtures without a DMX controller. The controlling fixture becomes the
“master” when running an Auto program (AUTO 1 or 2), a sound activated program
(SOUND 1 or 2), or the custom program (CUSTOM). The controlled fixtures are the
“slaves” and you must set them to “Slave” mode from their respective control panels.
During the Master/Slave operation, the slave fixtures will operate in unison with the
master fixture.
Master/Slave
Connectivity
The master and slave fixtures link to each other using the standard DMX serial
connection. If you are not familiar with the Master/Slave connectivity, you may download
the “DMX Primer” document from the CHAUVET® Web site.
DO NOT connect a DMX controller to the fixtures operating in Master/Slave mode.
Otherwise, the signals from the DMX controller may interfere with the signals from
the master unit.
The Operation chapter of this manual provides detailed instructions on how to
configure the Master and Slave units.
The Q-Spot™ 160-LED comes equipped with a Color wheel featuring nine colors and a
white (open).

Setup
The Q-Spot™ 160-LED comes equipped with a gobo wheel featuring seven rotating and
replaceable (slot-n-lock system) gobos. The gobo wheel has an eighth position with no
gobo (open).
Gobo Wheel
Gobo Wheel Diagram
The Q-Spot™ 160-LED features a gobo wheel that holds seven interchangeable, slot-n-
lock gobos. These gobos can rotate at various speeds and in both directions.
Gobo
Replacement
Follow the procedure below to change any of the gobos on the gobo wheel
Always disconnect the fixture from the AC power before opening it.
1) Remove the gobo cover.
Procedure
2) Remove the slot-n-lock gobo from the gobo wheel.
3) Using a small tool, pry the tension ring from the gobo holder.
4) Remove the old gobo.
5) Insert the new gobo, and replace in the reverse steps of removal.
If using coated glass gobos, make sure that the more reflective side of the gobo
(glass base) faces the light source. This way, the glass base of the gobo will
provide extra isolation to its coating from the heat of the light source, thus
minimizing the risk of damaging the gobo’s coating.

Technical Information
5. Technical Information
To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, the user should clean the light
General
Maintenance
fixtures frequently. Usage and environment are contributing factors in determining the
cleaning frequency. As a rule, the user should clean the fixtures at least twice a month.
Dust build up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can
lead to reduced light source life and increased mechanical wear.
CHAUVET® recommends cleaning the fixture’s external optics with a soft cloth using
normal glass cleaning fluid.
To clean a fixture, follow the recommendations below:
•
•
•
Unplug the fixture from power.
Wait until the fixture is cold.
Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust collected
on the external vents and reachable internal components.
•
•
Clean all external optics and glass surfaces with a mild solution of glass cleaner or
isopropyl alcohol, and a soft, lint free cotton cloth or a lens cleaning tissue.
Apply the solution directly to the cloth or tissue and drag any dirt and grime to the
outside of the lens.
•
•
Gently polish the external glass surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.
When cleaning units with a movable mirror, you should keep the contact with the
mirror surface to a minimum to avoid scratching or damaging it.
Always dry the external optics and glass surfaces carefully after cleaning them.
If the fixture has one or more fans, refrain from spinning them using compressed
air.

Technical Information
The user must send the merchandise prepaid, in the original box, and with its original
packing and accessories. CHAUVET® will not issue call tags.
Returns
Procedure
Call CHAUVET® and request a Return Merchandise Authorization Number (RMA #)
before shipping the fixture. Be prepared to provide the model number, serial number,
and a brief description of the cause for the return.
The user must clearly label the package with a Return Merchandise Authorization
Number (RMA #). CHAUVET® will refuse any product returned without an RMA #.
DO NOT write the RMA # directly on the box. Instead, write it on a properly affixed
label.
Once you receive the RMA #, please include the following information on a piece of
paper inside the box:
•
•
•
•
•
Your name
Your address
Your phone number
The RMA #
A brief description of the problem
Be sure to pack the fixture properly. Any shipping damage resulting from inadequate
packaging will be the customer’s responsibility. As a suggestion, proper UPS packing or
double-boxing is always a safe method to use.
CHAUVET® reserves the right to use its own discretion to repair or replace
returned product(s).
The carrier is responsible for any damage incurred during shipping to this product or any
part that shipped with it. Therefore, if the received merchandise appears to have
damages caused during shipping, the customer must submit the damage report and any
related claims with the carrier, not CHAUVET®. The customer must submit the report
upon reception of the damaged merchandise. Failure to do so in a timely manner may
invalidate the customer’s claim with the carrier.
Claims
For other issues such as missing components or parts, damage not related to shipping,
or concealed damage, the customer must make claims to CHAUVET® within seven (7)
days of receiving the merchandise.
