3. SETUP
AC Power
To determine the power requirements for a particular fixture, see the label affixed to the back
plate of the fixture or refer to the fixture’s specifications chart. All fixtures must be powered
directly off a switched circuit and cannot be run off a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer
circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch. Before
applying power to a fixture, check that the source voltage matches the fixture’s requirement.
Warning! All fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth Ground.
Mounting
Orientation
This fixture may be mounted in any safe position.
Rigging The fixture includes a mounting yoke to which a rigging clamp can be attached. You
must supply your own clamp and make sure the clamp is capable of supporting the
weight of this fixture. It is recommended to use at least 2 mounting points per fixture.
You can order “C” and “O”-clamps from any CHAUVET dealer or distributor (CLP-15,
CLP-06 recommended).
Note: There are 2 types of applications for this fixture: floor stand for up lighting, and
overhead use for down lighting. If you are using this fixture for up lighting, then you must use
at least 1 safety cable/chain for each fixture in addition to the mounting brackets.
If hanging the fixture for over head use, then please follow the below steps.
1. Block access below the work area and use suitable and stable platform when
installing or servicing fixture.
2. Safety cables must always be used, secured through the heat sink ventilation
passageway. The safety cable must be capable of holding 10 times the weight
of the fixture.
3. Verify the structure can hold 10 times the weight of all to-be installed fixtures.
Hanging Clamp

6. APPENDIX
General Maintenance
To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear fixtures should be cleaned frequently. Usage
and environment are contributing factors in determining frequency. As a general rule, fixtures should
be cleaned at least twice a month. Dust build up reduces light output performance and can cause
overheating. This can lead to reduced lamp life and increased mechanical wear. Be sure to power off
fixture before conducting maintenance.
Unplug fixture from power. Use a vacuum or air compressor and a soft brush to remove dust collected
on external vents and internal components. Clean all glass when the fixture is cold with a mild
solution of glass cleaner or Isopropyl Alcohol and a soft lint free cotton cloth or lens tissue. Apply
solution to the cloth or tissue and drag dirt and grime to the outside of the lens. Gently polish optical
surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.
The cleaning of internal and external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to
optimize light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates:
damp, smoky or particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the unit’s
optics. Clean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid. - Always dry the parts carefully. - Clean
the external optics at least every 20 days. Clean the internal optics at least every 30/60 days.
Returns Procedure
Returned merchandise must be sent prepaid and in the original packing, call tags will not be issued.
Package must be clearly labeled with a Return Merchandise Authorization Number (RA #). Products
returned without an RMA # will be refused. Call CHAUVET and request RA # prior to shipping the
fixture. Be prepared to provide themodel number, serial number and a brief description of the cause
for the return. Be sure to properly pack fixture, any shipping damage resulting from inadequate
packaging is the customer’s responsibility. CHAUVET reserves the right to use its own discretion to
repair or replace product(s). As a suggestion, proper UPS packing or double-boxing is always a safe
method to use.

inside the box:
1) Your name
2) Your address
3) Your phone number
4) The RMA #
5) A brief description of the symptoms
Claims
Damage incurred in shipping is the responsibility of the shipper; therefore the damage must be
reported to the carrier upon receipt of merchandise. It is the customer's responsibility to notify and
submit claims with the shipper in the event that a fixture is damaged due to shipping. Any other claim
for items such as missing component/part, damage not related to shipping, and concealed damage,
must be made within seven (7) days of receiving merchandise.

Symptom(s)
Possible Solution(s)
1 or more LED’s are not
illuminating

proper cooling will be allowed to occur
An LED may have failed, resulting in an open circuit. In this event, all of the red,
green, or blue in a single module may no longer illuminate. This does not mean
that all of the LEDs have failed, but the circuit may be wired in series.
An LED may have failed, resulting in a short circuit. In this event, only the single
LED which has failed will no longer function.
-Note: In the event of LED failure, a replacement LED PCB assembly may be
purchased directly from Chauvet Part#: P222-DJBANK
Breaker/Fuse keeps blowing
Check total load placed on the electrical circuit
