Mounting

Before mounting the product, read and follow the safety recommendations indicated in

 

the Safety Notes.

Orientation

The COLORbar™ SMD may be mounted in any position; however, make sure adequate

 

ventilation is provided around the product.

Rigging Before deciding on a location for the product, always make sure there is easy

access to the product for maintenance and programming purposes.

Make sure that the structure 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 bracket adjustment knobs allow for directional adjustment when aiming the product to the desired angle. Only loosen or tighten the bracket knobs manually. Using tools could damage the knobs.

Colorbar SMD specifications

The Chauvet Colorbar SMD is a versatile LED fixture designed for a wide range of applications, from stage performances to architectural lighting. This innovative product stands out due to its advanced features and technologies, making it a favored choice among lighting professionals and enthusiasts alike.

One of the main features of the Colorbar SMD is its high-performance SMD (Surface-Mount Device) technology. This technology allows for vibrant color mixing and smooth color transitions. The result is a wide palette of colors that can be easily manipulated to create stunning visual effects. The Colorbar SMD's ability to produce rich, saturated hues enhances any lighting design, making it ideal for concerts, theatrical productions, and corporate events.

The Colorbar SMD boasts a sleek, lightweight, and low-profile design. This makes it easy to mount and position in various settings, providing flexibility for lighting designers. The fixture is equipped with a durable aluminum housing that not only adds to its aesthetic appeal but also ensures longevity and resistance to wear and tear in various environments.

Another significant characteristic is the fixture’s extensive range of control options. The Colorbar SMD supports DMX, allowing for precise control from lighting consoles. Users can easily create customized lighting scenes, control individual LED segments, and sync effects to music. The built-in programs and master/slave capabilities further enhance its usability, making it a plug-and-play solution for live events.

Additionally, the Colorbar SMD features a special frost filter option, allowing for diffused and softer lighting. This characteristic is particularly useful when aiming for a wash effect or when creating ambient lighting for different settings. The dimming capabilities of the fixture are commendable, providing smooth transitions and reducing the risk of flickering, which is vital in live environments.

Moreover, the Chauvet Colorbar SMD is designed for energy efficiency. Utilizing LED technology not only reduces power consumption but also results in less heat output, enabling longer use without the need for extensive cooling solutions. This makes it an environmentally friendly option, aligning with the growing demand for sustainable lighting solutions.

In conclusion, the Chauvet Colorbar SMD combines advanced SMD technology, versatile control options, and a sleek design, positioning itself as an exceptional choice for any lighting project. The fixture's rich color output, durability, and energy efficiency make it a top contender for both everyday use and special events, meeting the diverse demands of today's dynamic lighting industry.
