Expected LED

Lifespan

In the unlikely event that your CHAUVET® product may require service, please contact CHAUVET® Technical Support.

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 of 40,000 to 50,000 hours. If extending this lifespan is vital, lower the operational temperature by improving the product’s ventilation and reducing the external temperature. In addition, limiting the overall projection intensity may also help to extend the LEDs’ lifespan.

Setup

DMX Linking

DMX Modes

Master/Slave

Connectivity

You may link the Q-Wash 560Z-LED to a DMX controller using a standard DMX serial connection. If using other DMX compatible products with the Q-Wash 560Z-LED, you can control each individually with a single DMX controller.

The Q-Wash 560Z-LED uses the standard DMX data connection for its Basic, Advanced, and G1 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 Q-Wash 560Z-LED to work in these modes.

The DMX Values section will provide you with detailed information regarding the DMX modes.

The Master/Slave mode enables a Q-Wash 560Z-LED (the “master product”) to control one or more Q-Wash 560Z-LEDs (the “slave products”) without a DMX controller. One Q-Wash

560Z-LED becomes the master product when running an Auto or Custom program.

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.

If you are not familiar with or need more information about DMX standards, master/slave connectivity, or the DMX cables needed to link this product to a DMX controller, download the document DMX Primer from the CHAUVET® website: www.chauvetpro.com

.

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 chapter of this manual provides detailed instructions on how to configure the Master and Slave products.
