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.

AC Power
The Q-Wash™ 419Z-LED has an auto-ranging power supply that works with an input
voltage range of 100~240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. To determine the power requirements for
each Q-Wash™ 419Z-LED, refer to the label affixed to the product. You can also refer to
the Technical Specifications section in this manual.
The listed current rating indicates the maximum current draw during normal operation.
For more information, you may download Sizing Circuit Breakers from the CHAUVET®
website: www.chauvetpro.com.
Always connect this product to a protected circuit with an appropriate electrical ground to
avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.
Never connect this product to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the
rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0 to 100% switch.
AC Plug
The Q-Wash™ 419Z-LED comes with a power input cord terminated with a Neutrik®
powerCON® A connector and an Edison power cord adapter. If the power cord adapter
that came with your product has no plug or you need to change the Edison plug, use the
table below to wire the new plug.

Power Linking
The Q-Wash™ 419Z-LED supports power linking. You can power link up to:
•5 products at 120 VAC,
•9 products at 208 VAC, or
•9 products at 230 VAC
This product comes with a power input cord. This product does not come with a power
linking cable; however, a power linking cable is available as an option.
Make sure to disconnect the product’s power cord before replacing a blown fuse. Always
replace the blown fuse with another of the same type and rating.
Fuse Replacement
The stand-alone battery charger has no external fuse. However, the
flight case/charger comes with a replaceable fuse
(T 6.3 A @ 250 V).
To change the fuse on the flight case/charger, do the following:
1. Disconnect the product from the power outlet.
2. With a Phillips #2 head screwdriver, unscrew the fuse holder
cap from its housing.
3. Remove the blown fuse and replace it with a good fuse of the
same type and rating (T 6.3 A @ 250 V).
4. Screw the fuse holder cap back in its place and reconnect
power.

Setup
Q-Wash™ 419Z-LED User Manual -7-
DMX Linking
You can link the Q-Wash™ 419Z-LED to a DMX controller using a standard DMX serial
connection. If using other DMX compatible products with the Q-Wash™ 419Z-LED, you
can control each individually with a single DMX controller.
DMX Modes
The Q-Wash™ 419Z-LED uses the standard DMX data connection for its PERSON1,
PERSON2, PERSON3, PERSON4, and PERSON5 DMX modes.
•Refer to the Introduction section for a brief description of these modes.
•Refer to the Operation section to learn how to configure the Q-Wash™ 419Z-LED to
work in these modes.
•The DMX Values section provides you with detailed information regarding the DMX
modes.
Master/Slave
Connectivity
The Master/Slave mode allows a Q-Wash™ 419Z-LED (master product) to control one
or more products (slave products) without a DMX controller.
One Q-Wash™ 419Z-LED becomes the master product either when running in static
(MANUAL > MANUAL) mode or when using the automatic (STAND ALONE > RUN >
AUTO 1~2) or customizable (STAND ALONE > RUN > CUSTOM) programs.
In addition, you must configure each of the slave products (via control panel) to operate
in Slave (STAND ALONE > RUN > SLAVE) mode. During Master/Slave operation, the
slave products will operate in unison with the master product.
For more information, see Menu Map.
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 section of this manual provides detailed instructions on how to
configure the Master and Slave products.
•If you need more information about DMX standards, Master/Slave connectivity, or the
DMX cables needed in order to link the product to a DMX controller, download the
DMX Primer from the CHAUVET® website: www.chauvetpro.com.
