Chauvet DJ Intimidator Spot 360X

Dimmer and shutter must allow output; the strobe channel also includes blackout.

1. In 14CH check dimmer on channel 11 and shutter/strobe on 12; in 08CH strobe is on 8 with no separate dimmer.
2. For steady light, the manual assigns 004–007 to open shutter. Test with open gobo and color in a safe output area.
3. If it goes dark only during movement, inspect Function in 14CH: it can request movement blackout. Save the scene before editing.

Manual zoom and motorized focus have different jobs.

1. With safe access, set manual zoom for coverage without touching hot parts.
2. Focus on the actual surface using Focus: channel 7 in 08CH or 10 in 14CH.
3. Remove prism and rotation for the test. If focus works through Run Mode > Manual but not the console, inspect profile, address and values before using Zero Adjust calibration.

Setup > DMX Loss selects Hold, Black, Auto or Sound.

1. Record the setting and select the intended event behavior. Auto and Sound can start output and movement.
2. Test disconnection in a controlled area; Hold retains the last state and Black requests blackout.
3. With RFC/RFC-XL, check Setup > RF > BIND and Run Mode > RF group separately from the patch. An RF receiver is not wireless DMX.

Define what must be visible: a texture on a surface, a moving beam or a stable scene. These are different results; room size alone does not determine fixture count.

1. Test gobo and focus at the actual throw, initially without a prism; agree on manual zoom before the show and check clear movement and limits.
2. We can assess effects separately from people lighting or another optical option for the background. Send photos, target area and planned changes; model and configuration need confirmation.
3. Include the date, venue, approximate dimensions, existing equipment, and setup and rehearsal times. Tell us whether you want continuous ambience or changes for entrances, songs, and endings. We can compare planned standalone use with prepared scenes and agreed operation. The proposal details supports, accessories, control, programming, testing, and crew so you can choose equipment only or the services you need.

If this fixture will be the presenter’s main light, check that their face stays lit across the full route and in the planned camera shots, including while the effects change.

1. Compare a steady scene across the full route using the actual camera, then check changes in color, gobo and movement.
2. We can compare fixed front light with separate effects, or the intended 360X use if the test works. Share positions, shots and programming/operator roles; a final equipment list is not required.

The Rev. 3 manual describes Totem as a restriction on pan and tilt travel. Do not treat it as an automatic guarantee that every setup or scene lights only the dance floor.

1. Share fixture position and orientation, dance area, audience, stage, and cameras. During rehearsal, check the actual limits and whether the setting has the intended effect in the selected operating mode; do not infer direction from the name UP or DOWN alone. Retain the manual’s light-exposure and mounting restrictions.
2. We can assess another position, prepared movement scenes, or fixed lighting for the area when movement is unnecessary. Tell us the effect you want and who will operate. The quote identifies configuration, rehearsal, accessories, and control, and confirms the model and availability. Test the system in its planned position before accepting the movement path.
