In the unlikely event that your CHAUVET® product may require service, contact
CHAUVET® Technical Support.
Expected LED
Lifespan
LEDs gradually decline in brightness over time, mostly because of heat. Packaged in
clusters, LEDs exhibit higher operating temperatures than in ideal, single-LED conditions.
For this reason, using clustered LEDs at their fullest intensity significantly reduces the
LEDs’ lifespan. Under normal conditions, this lifespan can be 40,000 to 50,000 hours. If
extending this lifespan is vital, lower the operating temperature by improving the
ventilation around the product and reducing the ambient temperature
to an optimal
operating range. In addition, limiting the overall projection intensity may also help to
extend the LEDs’ lifespan.

DMX Linking
You can link the COLORado™ Batten 72 Tour to a DMX controller using a standard DMX
serial connection. If using other DMX compatible products with the COLORado™ Batten 72
Tour, you can control each individually with a single DMX controller.
DMX Modes
The COLORado™ Batten 72 Tour uses the standard DMX data connection for the TOUR,
BLOCK1, BLOCK2, ARC1, ARC1 +D, ARC2, ARC2 + D, ARC2 + S, and HSV DMX
modes.
Refer to the Introduction chapter for a brief description of these modes.
Refer to the Operation chapter to learn how to configure the COLORado™ Batten 72 Tour
to work in these modes.
The DMX Values section provides detailed information regarding the DMX modes.
Master/Slave
Connectivity
The Master/Slave mode allows a master OLORado™ Batten 72 Tour set to Master mode to
control one or more COLORado™ Batten 72 Tours set to Slave mode
without a DMX
controller. One COLORado™ Batten 72 Tour becomes the master product when running an
Auto or Custom program, or by being in STATIC mode.
You must configure each slave product’s control panel to operate in SLAVE mode. During
Master/Slave operation, the slave products will operate in unison with the master product.
If you are not familiar with DMX, download the DMX Primer from the CHAUVET® website:
www.chauvetpro.com.
DO NOT connect a DMX controller to products operating in Master/Slave mode. The
DMX controller signals may interfere with the signals from the master product.
The Operation chapter of this manual provides detailed instructions on how to
configure the Master and Slave products.
ID Addressing
The COLORado™ Batten 72 Tour uses the ID Addressing feature to increase the number of
addressable products in the same DMX universe when in the TOUR personality. See the
Operation chapter for details on to configuring this product when using ID Addressing.

generates the
white color based on various RGB settings.
1. Go to the SETTINGS main level.
2. Select COLOR.

OFF: When all the RGB faders are set to 255, the output is maximum, although
the resulting white color may not be balanced.
RGB TO W: When all the RGB faders are set to 255, the resulting output is defined by
the configured White color (see Whites Settings).
UC: When all the RGB faders are set to 255, the output matches that of less
efficient products (Universal Color).
Dimmer Curves
This setting determines how fast the output of the COLORado™ Batten 72 Tour changes
when you modify the values of the Red, Green, Blue, White, Amber, and Dimmer faders.
This setting provides

the internal
temperature rises above a certain level.
TOUR Notes
These notes clarify the way the TOUR DMX personality works.
Master Dimmer
•Channel 1 controls the intensity of the currently projected color.
•When the slider is at the highest position (100%), the intensity of the output is at
maximum.
Red, Green, Blue
White, and Amber
Color Selection
•Channels 2 through 6 control the intensity ratio of each of the Red, Green, Blue, White,
and Amber LEDs.
•When these channels are at the highest position (100%), the intensity of each color is at
maximum if SETTINGS > COLOR is OFF.
•
You can combine channels 2 through 6 to create over one trillion colors.
Color Macros
•Channel 7 selects the required Color Macro.
•Channel 7 has priority over channels 2 through 6.
•
Channel 1 controls the intensity of the Color Macro.
Strobe
•Channel 8 controls the strobe frequency (not the intensity) of channels 2 through 7.
•Channel 8 can strobe channels 2 through 6 when not running macros, allowing the
individual faders (R, G. B, W, and A), as well as channel 1 (D), to control the output
intensity.
