•In case of a serious operating problem, stop using this product immediately!
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.

3. Setup
AC Power
Each COLORado™ 2 Zoom IP 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 COLORado™ 2 Zoom IP
, refer to the label affixed to the product. You can also
refer to the Technical Specifications 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 COLORado™ 2 Zoom IP comes with an IP66 power input cord terminated with a
proprietary IP66 connector and an IP66 to Edison power cord adapter. I
f 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.

products @ 120 VAC, 13 products @ 208 VAC, or 15 products @ 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.

Setup
COLORado™ 2 Zoom IP User Manual Rev. 1 -7-
DMX Linking
You can link the COLORado™ 2 Zoom IP to a DMX controller using a standard DMX
serial connection. If using other DMX compatible products with the
COLORado™ 2
Zoom IP, you can control each individually with a single DMX controller.
DMX Modes
The COLORado™ 2 Zoom IP uses the standard DMX data connection for the TOUR,
ARC.1, AR1.D, ARC2, AR2.D, AR2.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™ 2 Zoom IP
to work in these modes.
•The DMX Values
section will provide you with detailed information regarding the DMX
modes.
Master/Slave
Connectivity
The Master/Slave mode allows a COLORado™ 2 Zoom IP (the “master product”) to
control one or more COLORado™ 2 Zoom IPs (the “s
lave products”) without a DMX
controller. One COLORado™ 2 Zoom IP
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.
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 are not familiar with or need more information about DMX standards,
Master/Slave connectivity, or th
e DMX cables needed to link this product to a DMX
controller, download the DMX Primer from the CHAUVET® website:
www.chauvetpro.com.

•When the slider is at the highest position (100%), the intensity of the output is at
maximum.
Red, Green, Blue, and
White Color Selection
•Channels 2 through 5 control the intensity ratio of each of the Red, Green, Blue, and
White LEDs.
•When these channels are at the highest position (100%
), the intensity of each color is
at maximum if SET > COLRis OFF.
•You can combine channels 2 through 5 to create over one trillion colors.
Color Macros
•Channel 6 selects the required Color Macro.
•Channel 6 has priority over channels 2 through 5.
•
Channel 1 controls the intensity of the Color Macro.
Strobe
•Channel 7 controls the strobe frequency (not the intensity) of channels 2 through 6.
•Channel 7 can strobe channels 2 through 5 when not running macros, allowing the
individual faders (R, G, B, and W), as well as channel 1 (D), to control the output
intensity.
•Channel 7 can strobe channel 6 when running macros, allowing channel 6 to select
the macro and channel 1 to control the output intensity.
Auto/Custom
•Channel 8 selects the preset auto programs AT.01~10 or the custom programs
PR.01~10.
•When activating the custom Auto programs PR.01~10, you can control the Step Time
and Fade Time using channels 2 and 3, respectively.
•Channel 8 has priority over channels 2 through 7.
•Channel 9 controls the speed at which each auto program plays.
Dimmer Speed
•Channel 10 selects the Dimmer mode and speed. Dimmer mode provides four
different options to simulate the dimming curve of an incandescent lighting product.
•When Dimmer is set to OFF,the changes in the RGBW and Master Dimmer faders
are linear.
•When Dimmer is set to DIM1~DIM4, DIM1 is the fastest dimmer curve and DIM4 is
the slowest.
Zoom Selection
•Channel 11 controls the zoom function.
Zoom Reset
•Channel 12 resets the zoom function to the starting position.
