3. SETUP
AC Power
This product has an auto-ranging power supply and it can work with an input voltage
range of 100~240 VAC, 50/60 Hz.
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. A fixture’s
listed current rating indicates its average current draw under normal conditions.
Always connect this product to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse),
making sure that it has
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.
Fuse Replacement
Disconnect this product from the power outlet before replacing the fuse.
1) Disconnect the fixture 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 (F 3.15 A @ 250 V).
4) Screw the fuse holder cap back in its place and
reconnect power.
Always replace a blown fuse with a good fuse of the same type and rating.

Power Linking
This fixture provides power linking via the Edison outlet located in the bottom of the
unit. Please see the diagram below for further explanation.
Power Linking
Diagram
You can power link up to 8 Intimidator™ Scan LED 200 units on 120 VAC.
The power linking diagram shown above corresponds to the North American
version of this product ONLY! If using this 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.

Mounting
Orientation
The Intimidator™ Scan LED 200 may be mounted in any position, provided there is
adequate room for ventilation around it.
Rigging
Before deciding on a location for this product, always make sure that it will be easy to
access the unit for maintenance and programming purposes.
Make sure that the structure or surface onto which you are mounting this product can
support its weight. Please see the Technical Specifications section of this manual for
weight information.
When mounting this product overhead, always use a safety cable. Mount the fixture
securely to a rigging point, whether an elevated platform or a truss.
When rigging this product onto a truss, you should use a mounting clamp of
appropriate weight capacity. The bracket has a 13 mm hole, which is appropriate for
this purpose.
When power linking multiple fixtures, you must always consider the length of the
power linking cable and mount the fixtures close enough for the cable to reach them.
The bracket knobs allow for directional adjustment when aiming the fixture to the
desired angle. Loosen or tighten the bracket knobs using only your bare hands. Using
tools could damage the knobs.
The double bracket yoke/mounting brackets also serve as floor supports or surface
mounting. When mounting this fixture on the floor, make sure that the fixture and its
cables are away from people and vehicles.

5. TECHNICAL INFORMATION
General Maintenance
Dust build up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can
lead to reduction of the light source’s life or mechanical wear. To maintain optimum
performance and minimize wear, you should clean your lighting fixtures at least twice
a month. However, be aware that usage and environmental conditions could be
contributing factors to increase the cleaning frequency.
To clean this fixture, follow the instructions below:
•Unplug the fixture from power.
•Wait until the fixture is cold.
•Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust collected
on the external surface/vents and reachable internal components.
•Clean the mirror and lens with a mild soap solution, ammonia-free glass cleaner,
or isopropyl alcohol.
•Apply the solution directly to a soft, lint free cotton cloth or a lens cleaning tissue.
•Softly drag any dirt or grime to the outside of the mirror and lens.
•Gently polish the mirror and lens until they are free of haze and lint.
•When cleaning the movable mirror, you should keep the contact with the mirror’s
surface to a minimum to avoid scratching or damaging it.
Always dry the mirror and lens carefully after cleaning them.
Do not spin the cooling fan/fans using compressed air
because you could
damage it/them.

Returns Procedure
The user must send the merchandise prepaid, in the original box, and with its original
packing and accessories. CHAUVET® will not issue call tags.
Call CHAUVET® and request a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number
before shipping the fixture. Be prepared to provide the model number, serial number,
and a brief description of the cause for the return.
The user must clearly label the package with a Return Merchandise Authorization
(RMA) number. CHAUVET®
will refuse any product returned without an RMA
number.
DO NOT write the RMA number
directly on the box. Instead, write it on a
properly affixed label.
Once you have received the RMA number, please include the following information
on a piece of paper inside the box:
•Your name
•Your address
•Your phone number
•The RMA number
•A brief description of the problem
Be sure to pack the fixture properly. Any shipping damage resulting from inadequate
packaging will be the customer’s responsibility. As a suggestion, proper UPS packing
or double-boxing is always a safe method to use.
CHAUVET® reserves the right to use its own discretion to repair or replace
returned product(s).
Claims
The carrier is responsible for any damage incurred during shipping to this product or
any part that shipped with it. Therefore, if the received merchandise appears to have
damages caused during shipping, the customer must submit the damage report and
any related claims with the carrier, not CHAUVET®. The customer must submit the
report upon reception of the damaged merchandise. Failure to do so in a timely
manner may invalidate the customer’s claim with the carrier.
For other issues such as missing components or parts, damage not related to
shipping, or concealed damage, the customer must make claims to CHAUVET®
within seven (7) days of receiving the merchandise.
