Unpacking Instructions  
Immediately upon receiving a fixture, carefully unpack the carton, check the contents to ensure that  
all parts are present, and have been received in good condition. Notify the shipper immediately and  
retain packing material for inspection if any parts appear damaged from shipping or the carton itself  
shows signs of mishandling. Save the carton and all packing materials. In the event that a fixture  
must be returned to the factory, it is important that the fixture be returned in the original factory box  
and packing.  
AC Power  
To determine the power requirements for a particular fixture, see the label affixed to the back plate of  
the fixture or refer to the fixtures specifications chart. A fixtures listed current rating is its average  
current draw under normal conditions. All fixtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit and  
cannot be run off a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer  
Figure 1 - AC Voltage Switch  
channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch. Before applying power to a  
fixture, check that the source voltage matches the fixtures requirement.  
Check the fixture or device carefully to make sure that if a voltage selection  
switch exists that it is set to the correct line voltage you will use.  
Warning!  
Verify that the power select switch on your unit matches the  
line voltage applied. All fixtures must be connected to circuits  
with a suitable Earth Ground.

SETUP  
Lamp  
You will need to install a lamp prior to the initial operation of the fixture. An HTI150 high intensity  
discharge lamp is included.  
Warning!  
When replacing the lamp, please wait 15 minutes after powering down to allow the  
unit to cool down! Always disconnect from main power prior to lamp replacement.  
Do not touch the envelope (glass area) of the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp  
with alcohol and wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation.  
Lamp Installation  
S1  
1. Remove screws labeled (S1) and pull out lamp socket plate.  
2. If replacing the lamp, remove old lamp first.  
3. Holding the new lamp by its base, align the pins on the lamp  
with the small hole in the socket and insert the lamp squarely  
until the retaining clips on the lamp socket secure the lamp  
tightly.  
S2  
4. Clean the glass/envelope of the bulb with an alcohol wipe or  
equivalent.  
S1  
5. Holding the lamp socket plate, insert the tip of the lamp into the  
fixture with extreme care. Navigate the lamp all the way until it  
reaches the reflector and the lamp base plate touches the  
bottom plate of the fixture.  
6. Align the screw holes and fasten the screws back onto the  
lamp socket plate.  
7. If you are replacing the lamp, you may want to log the fixture  
hours in order to track the lamps use. Navigate to the H000 on  
the menu display to obtain this information. Please note that it  
is normal for the fixture to have logged a few hours of testing  
prior to your use.  
8. Turn the fixture on and adjust the lamp alignment screws (S2)  
until the brightest most even area of the beam is in the center  
of your spot. It may be necessary for you to use a controller in order to command the fixture to  
display a white beam on a flat surface with no colors.  
Maximizing the life of your lamp  
To ensure the longest and most efficient use of the lamp always wait  
between 10 and 15 minutes before re-applying power after a shutdown.  
Failure to do so could result in premature aging of the lamp and failure to  
the electronics that drive it.

Introduction  
Lamp Alignment How-To  
Often, after a new installation of a lamp, you will find that there  
is an uneven field of light or what is referred to as a hot spot.  
This is due to the most intense point of the lamp source not  
being positioned optimally within the reflector.  
S2  
There are three lamp alignment screws provided at the base of  
the projector head. Turning these screws allow you to optimize  
the projection quality of the spot as well as the overall intensity  
of the beam.  
Lamp Alignment Screws are  
accessible via the rear plate.  
1. Project a white spot against any flat surface. Preferably the  
surface should be white or pastel in color.  
2. Turning the lamp alignment screws, try to position the hot spot in the  
center of the beam as best as possible. This could require many  
attempts on your part.  
3. Once the hot spot is in the center of the spot, do your best to turn all  
screws equally as to affect movement up or down within the reflector.  
4. As you move in and out of optimum lamp focus, you will see the hot spot either gets wider or  
narrower. The goal is to either totally diminish the hot spot by having it widen and spread across  
the entire spot or moving the hot spot so that it covers as much of the beam spot area as possible.

Operating Instructions  
DMX Mode  
Operating in a DMX Control mode environment gives the user the greatest flexibility when it comes to  
customizing or creating a show. You can tailor your programming to suit a specific event. Whether it  
is a wedding where a spot light may be required or a lead singer requiring a color solo, the  
opportunities are endless. In this mode you will be able to control each individual trait of the fixture  
independently.  
Daisy Chain Connection  
1. Connect the (male) 3 pin connector side of the DMX cable to the output (female) 3 pin connector  
of the first fixture.  
2. Connect the end of the cable coming from the first fixture which will have a (female) 3 pin  
connector to the input connector of the next fixture consisting of a (male) 3 pin connector. Then,  
proceed to connect from the output as stated above to the input of the following fixture and so on.  
Daisy Chain Connection  
Menu Functions  
DMX-512 addressing  
This mode enables the use of a universal DMX controller device. Each fixture requires a "start  
address" from 1 to 511. A fixture requiring one or more channels for control begins to read the data  
on the channel indicated by the start address. For example, a fixture that occupies or uses 6 channels  
of DMX and was addressed to start on DMX channel 100, would read data from channels: 100, 101,  
102, 103, 104, and 105. Choose start addresses so that the channels used do not overlap and notate  
the start address selected for future reference.  
If this is your first time addressing a fixture using the DMX-512 control protocol than I suggest jumping  
to the Appendix Section and read the heading DMX Primer. It contains very useful information that  
will help you understand its use.  
Setting the starting address  
1. Press the [Choose] button until the display reads ANNNwhere N represents a number from 0 to  
9.  
2. Press the [Up] and [Down] buttons to increase or decrease values until the desired value is  
achieved.  
3. Press the [Enter] button to activate selection.

It is possible to invert the pan and tilt mirror movement from within the fixture itself. This could be  
helpful in situations where the positioning or rigging of a fixture led to a reverse orientation of the  
fixture in relation to all or most other fixtures installed. When choosing to command the pan or tilt of  
all fixtures at the same time you will notice that the fixtures whose orientation is different from the  
others will most likely move opposite of the rest. You can apply a pan and tilt Invert by following the

APPENDIX  
DMX Primer  
There are 512 channels in a DMX-512 connection. Channels may be assigned in any manner. A  
fixture capable of receiving DMX-512 will require one 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 controllable fixtures and they all may vary in the total number  
of channels required. Choosing a start address should be planned in advance. Channels should  
never overlap. If they do, this will result in erratic operation of the fixtures whose starting address is  
set incorrectly. You can however, control multiple fixtures of the same type using the same starting  
address as long as the intended result is that of unison movement or operation. In other words, the  
fixtures will be slaved together and all respond exactly the same.  
DMX fixtures are designed to receive data through a serial Daisy Chain. A Daisy Chain connection is  
where the DATA OUT of one fixture connects to the DATA IN of the next fixture. The order in which  
the fixtures are connected is not important and has no effect on how a controller communicates to  
each fixture. Use an order that provides for the easiest and most direct cabling. Connect fixtures  
using shielded two conductor twisted pair cable with three pin XLR male to female connectors. The  
shield connection is pin 1, while pin 2 is Data Negative (S-) and pin 3 is Data positive (S+). CHAUVET  
carries 3-pin XLR DMX compliant cables, DMX-10 (33), DMX-4.5 (15) and DMX-1.5 (5)

Maintenance  
To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear fixtures should be cleaned frequently. Usage  
and environment are contributing factors in determining frequency. As a general rule, fixtures 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  
fixture before conducting maintenance.  
Unplug fixture 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 fixture 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. Do not to touch the lamp glass when cleaning fixture. Oil  
and dirt can cause damage and premature aging of the lamp. In the event that the lamp is touched or  
becomes dirty, clean the lamps with an alcohol wipe.  
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 fixture operates:  
damp, smoky or particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the units  
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 (RA #). Products  
returned without an RA # will be refused. Call CHAUVET and request RA # prior to shipping the  
fixture. Be prepared to provide the model number, serial number and a brief description of the cause  
for the return. Be sure to properly pack fixture, any shipping damage resulting from inadequate  
packaging is the customers responsibility. CHAUVET reserves the right to use its own discretion to  
repair or replace product(s). As a suggestion, proper UPS packing or double-boxing is always a safe  
method to use.  
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 fixture 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.
