2) Remove the blown fuse from its holder and replace it with a good fuse of the exact
same type and rating.
3) Screw the fuse holder back in its place and reconnect power.
DMX Linking
You may link any Legend™ 1200E Spot fixture to a DMX controller using a standard
DMX serial connection. If using other DMX compatible fixtures with a Legend™ 1200E
Spot, it is possible to control them individually with a single DMX controller.
If you are not familiar with the DMX standard, or if you need information about the DMX
cables needed to link the Legend™ 1200E Spot fixture to a DMX controller, you may
download the “DMX Primer” document from the CHAUVET® Web site.
DMX Modes
The Legend™ 1200E Spot can operate in 23 and 31-
channel DMX modes. You will find
information about these DMX modes in the Introduction
chapter (brief description), the
Operation Instructions chapter (configuration details), and the DMX Values section
(individual channel values).
