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
This fixture has an auto-switching power supply that can accommodate a wide
range of input voltages. The only thing necessary to do before powering on the
unit is to make sure the line voltage you are applying is within the range of
accepted voltages. This fixture will accommodate between 100V and 240V AC
50-60 Hz. 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 channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch.

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
Use a Belden© 9841 or equivalent cable which meets the specifications for EIA
RS-485 applications. 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

Operation
Stand-Alone Mode (Sound-Active):
This mode allows a single unit to run to the beat of the music, or the unit will auto change
in Auto Mode.
1) Set all dipswitches position to the Off position.
Mode
Sound Active
Dipswitches
10 = Off
2) The unit will react to the low frequencies of music via the internal microphone in
Sound Active mode.
3) Use the audio sensitivity knob on the back of the unit to make the unit more or less
sensitive in Sound-Active mode. Turning the knob counterclockwise decreases the
sensitivity; turning the knob clockwise increases the sensitivity.
Master/Slave Mode (Master Sound):
This mode will allow you to link up to 32 units together without a controller.
1) Use standard DMX cables to daisy chain your units together via the DMX connector
on the rear of the units. For longer cable runs we suggest a terminator at the last
fixture. For more information about terminators, see page 7.
2) Choose a unit to function as the Master. Turn dipswitches to the Master position on
the unit. The unit must be the first unit in line. Then simply chain the units together
using DMX cable.

SETTING THE STARTING ADDRESS
This DMX mode enables the use of a universal DMX controller device. Each fixture requires a "start
address" from 1 to 512. 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 uses 6 DMX channels
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 note the
start address selected for future reference.
If this is your first time addressing a fixture using the DMX-512 control protocol, we suggest
jumping to the Appendix Section and reading the heading “DMX Primer”. It contains very useful
information that will help you understand its use.
Set the start address using the group of DIP switches located usually on bottom of the fixture. Each
dip switch has an associated value. Adding the value of each switch in the ON position will provide
the start address. Figuring out which switches to toggle ON given a specific start address can be
accomplished by determining which switch values will add up to the address value and turning
these switches on. Do so by doing the following:
1) Determine the largest value switch that is less than the start address. Turn this switch on.
2) Subtract the value of the switch you just turned on from the starting address number.
3) Determine the largest value switch that is less than the remainder from the previous
subtraction. Turn this switch on.
4) Subtract the value of the switch you just turned on from the remainder of the previous
subtraction.
5) Repeat steps three and four until you have a remainder of zero.

General Troubleshooting
Symptom(s)
Possible Solution(s)
Clean the fixture regularly to avoid any such failure. This fixture is
convection cooled, which means that if the surface is kept clean and free
of debris, then proper cooling will be allowed to occur
1 or more LED’s are not
illuminating
An LED may have failed, resulting in an open circuit. In this event, all of
the red, green, or blue in a single module will no longer illuminate. This
does not mean that all of the LEDs have failed, but the circuit is wired in
series.
An LED may have failed, resulting in a short circuit. In this event, only
the single LED which has failed will no longer function. This does not
mean that all of the LEDs have failed, but the circuit is wired in series.
-Note: In the event of LED failure, a replacement LED PCB assembly
may be purchased directly from CHAUVET
Part#: P222-DERBYX
Check that the lens assembly is installed properly. If the lens assembly
is not aligned properly over the LEDs, then they will not project fully
-See section on Lens Assembly Installation
1 or more LED’s are producing
very low output
-Note: In the event of LED failure, a replacement LED PCB assembly
may be purchased directly from CHAUVET
Part#: P222-DERBYX
Breaker/Fuse keeps blowing
Device has no power
Check total load placed on the electrical circuit
Check for a short in the electrical wiring: internal and/or external
Check device’s fuse (internal)
Check for power on Mains
-Note: In the event of autoswitching transformer failure, the unit can be
sent in for repair; however, a replacement part can be ordered directly
from CHAUVET
Part#: P140-DERBYX
Fixture is not responding to
DMX
Check Control Panel settings for correct addressing
Check DMX cables
Check polarity switch settings on the controller
Check cable connections
Call service technician
See page #10 for proper settings to operate in DMX mode
-Note: In the event of Master PCB failure, a replacement PCB can be
ordered directly from CHAUVET
Part#: P172-DERBYX
Loss of signal
Use only DMX cables
Install terminator
Note: Keep DMX cables separated from power cables or black lights
Stand alone operation problem
See page #8 & #10 for details on proper settings and connections

5. 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’)

General 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.
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 unit’s 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 (RMA #). Products returned without an RMA # will be refused. Call CHAUVET
and request RMA # 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
customer’s 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.
Note: If you are given an RMA #, please include the following information on a
piece of paper inside the box:
1) Your name
2) Your address
3) Your phone number
4) The RMA #
5) A brief description of the symptoms
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.
