Fuse Replacement 

With a flat head screwdriver wedge the fuse 

holder out of its housing. Remove the damaged 

fuse from its holder and replace with exact 

same type fuse. Insert the fuse holder back in 

its place and reconnect power.  

 

Fixture Linking 

You will need a serial data link to run light shows of one or more fixtures using a DMX-512 controller 

or to run synchronized shows on two or more fixtures set to a master/slave operating mode. The 

combined number of channels required by all the fixtures on a serial data link determines the number 

of fixtures the data link can support.  

Important:  

Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line. To comply with the 

EIA-485 standard no more than 32 fixtures should be connected on one data link. 

Connecting more than 32 fixtures on one serial data link without the use of a DMX 

optically-isolated splitter may result in deterioration of the digital DMX signal.  

Maximum recommended serial data link distance: 500 m (1640 ft)  

Maximum recommended number of fixtures on a serial data link: 32 

Data Cabling 

To link fixtures together you must obtain data cables. You can purchase CHAUVET certified DMX 

cables directly from a dealer/distributor or construct your own cable. If you choose to create your own 

cable please use data-grade cables that can carry a high quality signal and are less prone to 

electromagnetic interference. 

DMX Data Cable 

Use a Belden© 9841 or equivalent cable which meets the specifications for EIA RS-485 applications. 

Standard microphone cables cannot transmit DMX data reliably over long distances. The cable must 

have the following characteristics: 

2-conductor twisted pair plus a shield 
Maximum capacitance between conductors 

– 30 pF/ft. 

Maximum capacitance between conductor and shield 

– 55 pF/ft. 

Maximum resistance of 20 ohms / 1000 ft. 
Nominal impedance 100 

– 140 ohms 

 

 

Disconnect the power cord before replacing a fuse and always 
replace with the same type fuse.
