SETUP
3. SETUP
AC Power
The Intimidator Spot 260 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. Disconnect the product from power.
2. Using a flat-head screwdriver, unscrew the fuse holder cap from the housing.
3. Remove the blown fuse.
4. Replace with a fuse of the same type and rating.
5. Screw the fuse holder cap back in place and reconnect power.
Power Linking
The product provides power linking via the Edison outlet located in the back of the product. Please see the
diagram below for further explanation.
Power Linking Diagram
• 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
the rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0 to 100% switch.
Disconnect the product from the power outlet before replacing the fuse.
You can power link up to 5 Intimidator Spot 260 products on 120 VAC or up to 10
Intimidator Spot 260 products on 230 VAC.
The power linking diagram corresponds to the North American version of the
product ONLY! If using the product in other markets, you must consult with the local
Chauvet distributor as power linking connectors and requirements may differ in
your country or region.

OPERATION
Intimidator Spot 260 User Manual Rev. 1
Master/Slave Mode
The Master/Slave mode allows a single Intimidator Spot 260 product (the “master”) to control the actions of
one or more Intimidator Spot 260 products (the “slaves”) without the need of a DMX controller. The master
product will be set to operate in Stand-Alone, while the slave products will be set to operate in Slave mode.
Once set and connected, the slave products will operate in unison with the master product.
Configure the products as indicated below.
Slave products:
1. Press <MENU>.
2. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select Run Mode.
3. Press <ENTER>.
4. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select Slave.
5. Press <ENTER>.
6. Use <UP> or <DOWN> to select from Slave1, Slave2, Slave3, or Slave4.
• Select Slave1 for 100% synchronized actions.
• Select Slave2, Slave3, or Slave4 for a delayed show, creating a wave effect.
7. Connect the DMX input of the first slave product to the DMX output of the master product.
8. Connect the DMX input of the subsequent slave products to the DMX output of the previous slave
product.
9. Finish setting and connecting all the slave products.
Master product:
1. Set the master product to operate in Stand-Alone mode or with the IRC-6.
2. Make the master product the first product in the DMX daisy chain.
• Configure all the slave products before connecting the master to the daisy chain.
• Never connect a DMX controller to a DMX string configured for Master/Slave
operation because the controller may interfere with the signals from the master.
• Do not connect more than 31 slaves to the master.

MAINTENANCE
5. MAINTENANCE
Product Maintenance
Dust build-up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduction of
the light source’s life and/or mechanical wear. To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, clean
your lighting products at least twice a month. However, be aware that usage and environmental conditions
could be contributing factors to increase the cleaning frequency.
To clean the product, follow the instructions below:
1. Unplug the product from power.
2. Wait until the product is at room temperature.
3. Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust collected on the external
surface/vents.
4. Clean all transparent surfaces with a mild soap solution, ammonia-free glass cleaner, or isopropyl
alcohol.
5. Apply the solution directly to a soft, lint free cotton cloth or a lens cleaning tissue.
6. Softly drag any dirt or grime to the outside of the transparent surface.
7. Gently polish the transparent surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.
Always dry the transparent surfaces carefully after cleaning them.
