1 or more LEDs are not illuminating
Clean the fixture regularly to avoid any such failure. This fixture is
convection cooled, which means that if the surface is kept clean and
free of debris, then proper cooling will be allowed to occur
An LED may have failed, resulting in an open circuit. In this event,
all of the red, green, or blue in a single module will no longer
illuminate. This does not mean that all of the LEDs have failed, but
the circuit is wired in series.
An LED may have failed, resulting in a short circuit. In this event,
only the single LED which has failed will no longer function.
Note: In the event of LED failure, a replacement LED PCB assembly
may be purchased directly from Chauvet Part#: P222-C1LEDPC
1 or more LEDs are producing very low
output
Check that the lens assembly is installed properly. If the lens
assembly is not aligned properly over the LEDs, then they will not
project fully
See section on Lens Assembly Installation
Note: In the event of LED failure, a replacement LED PCB assembly
may be purchased directly from Chauvet Part#: P222-C1LEDPC
