3. SETUP
AC Power
This fixture is switchable and runs on either 115 VAC, 60 Hz or 230 VAC, 50 Hz power. Before
powering on the unit, make sure the line voltage to which you are connecting it matches the
current setting on the voltage selection switch.
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 the fixture to a switched circuit. Never connect the fixture to a rheostat
(variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel is used only
as a 0 to 100% switch.
Always connect the fixture to a circuit with a suitable electrical ground.
Power Linking
This fixture contains power linking via the Edison outlet located in front of the power input cable.
Please see the diagram below for further explanation.
The maximum quantity of Intimidator™ Scan LED 300 that may be linked is 4.
Additional power
link out
The power linking shown in this document is for the CHAUVET® North American version
ONLY! Therefore, it is the customer’s responsibility to check with the Dealer/Distributor
regarding power linking on the local version of the product. Connections and availability
may change, depending on the power requirements and/or regulations of each
country/region.

Mounting
Orientation
The Intimidator™ Scan LED 300may be mounted in any position provided there is adequate
room for ventilation.
Rigging
Be sure that the structure can support the weight of the fixture. Please see the “Technical
Specifications” section of this manual for a detailed weight listing. Mount the fixture securely. This
may be done with a screw, nut and bolt, or a hanging clamp. The hole in each bracket is 13 mm
in size. When rigging, consider routine maintenance and control panel access. Please see the
following notes on installation.
•
•
•
If the power link out is intended to be used with multiple fixture, take into account the
length of each power cable, and mount the fixtures close enough to one another to
accommodate for this.
When aiming the fixtures, you may use the bracket/yoke adjustment knob(s). Loosen
the knob(s), adjust to the desired angle, and then tighten the knob(s) by turning
clockwise. Do not use tools for this step, as it may cause damage.
Safety cables must always be used.

Configuring the Starting Address
The Intimidator™ Scan LED 300fixture uses up to 11 DMX channels. In this DMX configuration/personality,
the highest channel that the fixture may be set to in order to function properly is 502. Any address higher
than this will prevent access to all of the channels, while in this mode; however, if you desire to use one of
the other DMX channels configurations (personalities), please consider the total DMX channels when
selecting a DMX address.
The Intimidator™ Scan LED 300 fixture uses 8 or 11 DMX channels, depending on the selected DMX
configuration (personality).

General Maintenance
To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, fixtures should be cleaned frequently.
Usage and environment are contributing factors in determining frequency. As a general rule,
fixtures should be cleaned at least twice a month. Dust build up reduces light output performance
and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduced lamp life and increased mechanical wear.
Be sure to power off fixture before conducting maintenance.
•
•
Unplug fixture from power.
Use a vacuum or air compressor and a soft brush to remove dust collected on external
vents.
•
Clean all lenses when the fixture is cool with a mild solution of glass cleaner or
Isopropyl Alcohol and a soft lint free cotton cloth or lens tissue.
•
•
Apply solution to the cloth or tissue and drag dirt and grime to the outside of the lens.
Gently polish optical surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.
The cleaning of external optical lenses and/or mirrors must be carried out periodically to optimize
light output. Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fixture operates.
Damp, smoky or particularly dirty surroundings can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the
unit’s optics. Clean with soft cloth using normal glass cleaning fluid. Clean the external optics at
least every 20 days. Clean the fixture at least every 30/60 days.
Always dry the parts carefully after cleaning them.
Never spin a fan using compressed air.
Returns Procedure
Returned merchandise must be sent prepaid and in the original packing; call tags will not be
issued. Package must be clearly labeled with a Return Merchandize Authorization Number (RMA
#). Products returned without the RMA # will be refused. Call CHAUVET® and request an RMA #
prior to shipping the fixture. Be prepared to provide the model number, serial number and a brief
description of the cause for the return. Be sure to pack fixture properly; any shipping damage
resulting from inadequate packaging is 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 product(s).
If you are given an RMA #, please include the following information on a piece of paper
inside the box:
1)

5)
Your name
Your address
Your phone number

A brief description of the symptoms
Claims
Damage incurred in shipping is the responsibility of the shipper; therefore, the damage must be
reported to the carrier upon receipt of merchandise. It is the customer's responsibility to notify
and submit claims with the shipper in the event that a fixture is damaged due to shipping. Any
other claim for items such as missing component/part, damage not related to shipping, and
concealed damage, must be made within seven (7) days of receiving merchandise.
