3. SETUP
AC Power
The Festoon/Festoon VW controller has an auto-ranging power supply and it can work with an input
voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. To determine the product’s power requirements (circuit
breaker, power outlet, and wiring), use the current value listed on the label affixed to the product’s back
panel, or refer to the product’s specifications chart. The listed current rating indicates the product’s
average current draw under normal conditions.
Fuse Replacement
1. Wedge the tip of a flat-head screwdriver into the slot of the fuse holder.
2. Pry the fuse holder out of the housing.
3. Remove the blown fuse from the holder and replace with a fuse of the exact same type and rating.
4. Insert the fuse holder back in place and reconnect power
.
• Always connect the product to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse).
Make sure the product has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of
electrocution or fire.
• To eliminate unnecessary wear and improve its lifespan, during periods of non-
use completely disconnect the product from power via breaker or by
unplugging it.
Never connect the product to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if

Mounting
Controller
Before mounting the product, read and follow the safety recommendations indicated in the Safety Notes.
Orientation
The Festoon/Festoon VW controller may be mounted in any position; however, make sure adequate
ventilation is provided around the product.
Rigging
• Before deciding on a location for the product, always make sure there is easy access to the product
for maintenance and IRC or programming purposes.
• Make sure that the structure onto which you are mounting the product can support the product’s
weight. See the Technical Specifications for weight information.
• When mounting the product overhead, always use a safety cable. Mount the product securely to a
rigging point, whether an elevated platform or a truss.
• When rigging the product onto a truss, use a mounting clamp of appropriate weight capacity.
• When power linking multiple products, mount the products close enough for power linking cables to
reach.
Mounting Diagram
The Festoon/Festoon VW Controller is IP20 rated. Keep it away from water, solvents
and chemicals. Take care to site it away from potential water hazards, for example,
avoid installing it where excessive humidity, water splatter or condensation may
occur.

Mounting
Festoon/Festoon VW String / Extension String / Additional Festoon Strings
Before mounting the product, read and follow the safety recommendations indicated in the Safety Notes.
Orientation
The Festoon/Festoon VW String may be installed using various ways to achieve stunning looks, but the
bulbs MUST hang at a 90° perpendicular angle to the ground. This will prevent rain or moisture from
collecting in the lamp holders.
Rigging
• Before deciding on a location for the product, always make sure there is adequate length/distance
to the controller and other strings. Use the extension string if necessary.
• Make sure that the structure onto which you are mounting the product can support the product’s
weight. See the Technical Specifications for weight information.
• Use the built-in eyelets to hang the Festoon/Festoon VW String. The extension string may be hung
with zip-ties or equivalent.
• To prevent line sagging, it is recommended to use every eyelet, or in open installation areas (such
as outdoors) it is recommended to use a guy line fed through the eyelets to tighten slack.
• Use support poles as necessary. Chauvet recommends a support pole every 8 m. If the support
poles are used as end or corner supports, they will need to be tied back.
• The height of the attachment point should be at least 8 feet (2.4 m), or higher when deemed
necessary.
Your Festoon/Festoon VW string may be exposed to rain and moisture and comes
with an IP rated cap meant to terminate the end of the Festoon/Festoon VW string.
Retain this cap, and ALWAYS terminate the open end of your string when being used
outdoors or near moisture.

Configuration (DMX)
The Festoon/Festoon VW works with a DMX controller. If you are not familiar with the DMX protocol,
information about DMX is in the CHAUVET DMX Primer. Download the DMX Primer from
www.chauvetdj.com.

• 3-CH Mode - 510
• 9-CH Mode - 504
• 60CH (1 string) / 120CH (2 strings) / 180CH (3 strings) Mode - 453 / 393 / 333
To select the starting address, do the following:
1. Press <MENU> repeatedly until 3CH, 9CH or 60CH* shows on the display.
2. Press <ENTER> and d 1 will show on the display.
3. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select the starting address.
