Safety Notes
Read all the following safety notes before working with this product. These notes contain important
information about the installation, usage, and maintenance of this product.
Personal Safety
• Avoid direct eye exposure to the light source while the product is on.
• Always disconnect the product from the power source before cleaning or replacing the fuse.
• Always connect the product to a grounded circuit to avoid the risk of electrocution.
• Do not touch the product’s housing when operating because it may be very hot.
Mounting and Rigging
• Do not submerge this product (IP65). Temporary outdoor operation is fine.
• When using this product in an outdoor environment, use IP65 (or higher) rated power and data
cables. Secure unused power and data ports with attached IP65 covers.
• CAUTION:Whentransferring product from extremetemperatureenvironments,(e.g.,coldtruck to warm,
humid ballroom) condensation may form on the internal electronics of the product. To avoid causing a
failure, allow product to fully acclimate to the surrounding environment before connecting it to power.
• Not for permanent outdoor installation in locations with extreme environmental conditions. This
includes, but is not limited to:
• Exposure to a marine/saline environment (within 3 miles of a saltwater body of water).
• Locations where the normal high or low temperatures exceed the temperature ranges in this
manual.
• Locations that are prone to flooding or being buried in snow.
• Areas where the product will be subjected to extreme radiation or caustic substances.
• Mount this product in a location with adequate ventilation, at least 20 in (50 cm) from adjacent
surfaces.
• Make sure there are no flammable materials close to the product when operating.
• When hanging this product, always secure to a fastening device using a safety cable.
Power and Wiring
• Always make sure you are connecting the product to the proper voltage in accordance with the
specifications in this manual or on the product’s specification label.
• Never connect the product to a dimmer pack or rheostat.
• Never disconnect this product by pulling or tugging on the power cable.
Operation
• Donot operate thisproductif thereisdamage on thehousing,lenses, or cables. Havethe damaged
parts replaced by an authorized technician at once.
• Do not cover the ventilation slots when operating to avoid internal overheating.
• The maximum ambienttemperature is 113 °F (45 °C). Do not operate the product at higher temperatures.
• In the event of a serious operation problem, stop using this product immediately!
Expected LED Lifespan
LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time, primarily because of heat. LEDs that are arranged in
clusters experience higher operating temperatures than single LEDs. For this reason, operating clustered
LEDs at their fullest intensity significantly reduces the LEDs’ lifespan. Under normal conditions, this
lifespan is 40,000 to 50,000 hours. If extending this lifespan is vital, lower the operating temperature by
improving the ventilation around the product, thus reducing the ambient temperature. In addition, limiting
the overall projection intensity may extend the LEDs’ lifespan.
This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Any reference to servicing in this
User Manual will only apply to properly trained, certified technicians. Do not open the
housing or attempt any repairs.
All applicable local codes and regulations apply to proper installation of this product.
If your Chauvet product requires service, contact Chauvet Technical Support.

AC Power
Each ÉPIX Drive 2000 IP has an auto-ranging power supply that works with an input voltage range of 100
to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz.To determine the power requirements for each ÉPIX Drive 2000 IP, refer to the label
affixed to the product. You can also refer to the Technical Specifications chart in this manual.
The listed current rating indicates the maximum current draw during normal operation. For more
information, download Sizing Circuit Breakers from the Chauvet website: www.chauvetprofessional.com.
AC Plug
The ÉPIX Drive 2000 IP comes with a power input cord terminated with a Seetronic Powerkon IP65
connector on one end and an Edison plug on the other end (U.S. market). If the power input cord that
came with your product has no plug, or if you need the change the plug, use the table below to wire the
new plug.
Power Linking
The product supports power linking. You can power link up to 3 products at 120 V; up to 5 at 208 V or 230 V.
This product comes with a power input cord. Power linking cables are available from Chauvet for purchase.
• 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.

Setup
Signal Connections
The ÉPIX Drive 2000 IP can receive DMX,Art-Net™, sACN, or Kling-Net signal. The ÉPIX Drive 2000 IP
has 2 Seetronic Etherkon IP65 through ports, and 3- and 5-pin DMX in and out ports. For more information
about DMX, read the DMX primer at: https://www.chauvetprofessional.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/
DMX_Primer.pdf.
Art-Net™ Connection
Art-Net™ is an Ethernet protocol that uses TCP/IP which transfers a large amount of DMX512 data using a
Seetronic Etherkon IP65 connection over a large network. An Art-Net™ protocol document is available
from www.chauvetprofessional.com.
Art-Net™ designed by and copyright Artistic Licence Holdings Ltd.
sACN Connection
Also known asANSI E1.31, streamingACN is an Ethernet protocol that uses the layering and formatting of
Architecture for Control Networks to transport DMX512 data over IP or any otherACN compatible network.
ACN is maintained by the Professional Lighting and Sound Association (PLASA).
Kling-Net Connection
Kling-Net is a network protocol that allows auto configuration of display devices using a Seetronic
Etherkon IP65 Ethernet connection. Refer to theArKaos software manual for detailed instructions on
programming this product.
Connection Diagram
ArKaos Kling-Net does not support the pan and tilt functions, and must be paired
with another protocol for full functionality with the ÉPIX Drive 2000 IP.
The three LED indicators in between the ethernet through ports indicate a connection
to a network and activity on that network. They do not indicate whether or not the
ÉPIX Drive 2000 IP is receiving a signal from a controller.

Connecting ÉPIX Products
The ÉPIX Drive 2000 IP uses a 4-pin XLR connection to link all ÉPIX IP and ÉPIX Tour products. Each
ÉPIX Tour product must be daisy-chained together in series. Each output of an ÉPIX Drive 2000 IP is
capable of supporting up to 1000 IP LEDs or 900 Tour LEDs in many possible configurations. For example:
• 10 ÉPIX Strip IP products
• 20 ÉPIX Strip IP 50 products

• 5 ÉPIX Strip IP products, 3 ÉPIX Strip Tour products, and 2 ÉPIX Bar Tour products
Do not combine ÉPIX Strip IP products with ÉPIX Strip Tour products or ÉPIX Bar
Tour products on the same output of the ÉPIX Drive 2000 IP if any personality other
than Pixel or 8-CH-fixture is selected.
Length of cables between ÉPIX Drive 2000 IP
and 1st product must not exceed 65 ft (20 m)
when shielded, or 200 ft (60 m) when unshielded
Length of cables between products must
not exceed 60 ft (18 m) when shielded,
