3. SETUP
The Intimidator™ Spot LED 150 has an auto-ranging power supply and it can work with
an input voltage range of 100~240 VAC, 50/60 Hz.
AC Power
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.
Always connect the product to a protected circuit (circuit breaker or fuse). Make
sure the product has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of
electrocution or fire.
Never connect the product to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even
if the rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0~100% switch.
Disconnect the product from power before replacing the fuse.
1. Using a flat-head screwdriver, unscrew the fuse holder from the back of the product.
Fuse
Replacement
2. Remove the blown fuse from the holder and replace with a fuse of the exact same
type and rating.
3. Insert the fuse holder back in place, re-tighten, and reconnect power.
The product provides power linking via the Edison outlet located in the back of the unit.

adequate ventilation is provided around the product.
Orientation
•
•
Before deciding on a location, always make sure there is easy access to the product
for maintenance and programming purposes.
Rigging
Make sure that the structure or surface onto which you are mounting the product
can support the product’s weight. See the Technical Specifications section of this
manual for weight information.
•
•
When mounting the product overhead, always use a safety cable. Mount the
product securely to a rigging point, whether an elevated platform or a truss.
When rigging the product onto a truss, you should use a mounting clamp of
appropriate weight capacity. The bracket has a 13 mm hole, which is appropriate for
this purpose.
•
•
When power linking multiple products, you must always consider the length of the
power linking cable and mount the products close enough for the cable to reach.
The rubber feet also serve as floor supports/allow for surface mounting. When
mounting the product on the floor, make sure that the product and cables are away
