What Is Included

Claims

Carefully unpack the product immediately and check the container to make sure all the parts are in the

package and are in good condition.

If the box or the contents (the product and included accessories) appear damaged from shipping, or show

signs of mishandling, notify the carrier immediately, not Chauvet. Failure to report damage to the carrier

immediately may invalidate a claim. In addition, keep the box and contents for inspection.

For other issues, such as missing components or parts, damage not related to shipping, or concealed

damage, file a claim with Chauvet within 7 days of delivery.

Text Conventions

Symbols

FCC Compliance

This device complies with Part 15 Part B of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and

2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause

undesired operation.

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void

the user's authority to operate the equipment.

Expected LED Lifespan

Over time, use and heat will gradually reduce LED brightness. Clustered LEDs produce more heat than single LEDs,

contributing to shorter lifespans if always used at full intensity. The average LED lifespan is 40,000 to 50,000

hours. To extend LED lifespan, maintain proper ventilation around the product, and limit the overall intensity.

3. Setup

AC Power

The COLORado EXPO W has an auto-ranging power supply and it can work with an input voltage range of

100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz.

To determine the product’s power requirements (circuit breaker, power outlet, and wiring), use the current

value listed on the label affixed to the product’s back panel, or refer to the product’s specifications chart.

The listed current rating indicates the product’s average current draw under normal conditions.

AC Plug

The COLORado EXPO W comes with a power input cable terminated with a Seetronic Powerkon A

connector on one end and an Edison connector on the other end (U.S. market). Use the table below to wire

a plug.

Power Linking

It is possible to power link COLORado EXPO W products. See the table below for the current draw at each

voltage and frequency:

Never exceed 12 A on a single circuit. Power-linking cables can be purchased separately.

Remote Device Management (RDM)

Remote Device Management, or RDM, is a standard for allowing DMX-enabled devices to communicate

bi-directionally along existing DMX cabling. Check the DMX controller’s User Manual or with the

manufacturer as not all DMX controllers have this capability. The COLORado EXPO W supports RDM

protocol that allows feedback to make changes to menu map options.

• Always connect the product to a protected circuit (a circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure

the product has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or

fire.

• To eliminate unnecessary wear and improve its lifespan, during periods of non-use

completely disconnect the product from power via breaker or by unplugging it.

Never connect the product to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the

rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0 to 100% switch.
