DMX Linking

The Ovation CYC 3 FC will work with a DMX controller using a 5-pin DMX serial connection. A DMX Primer is available from www.chauvetprofessional.com.

DMX Connection

The Ovation CYC 3 FC uses a 5-pin DMX data connection for its DMX personalities: 1Ch, 3Ch, 5Ch, 7Ch, 10Ch, 12Ch, 13Ch, 16Ch, 17Ch, 33Ch, and HSV. See the User Manual for information about connecting and configuring the product for DMX operation.

Master/Slave Connection

The Ovation CYC 3 FC uses the DMX data connection for its master/slave mode. See the User Manual for information about how to connect and configure the product for master/slave operation.

RDM (Remote Device Management)

Remote Device Management, or RDM, is a standard for allowing DMX-enabled devices to communicate bi-directionally along existing DMX cabling. Check the DMX controller’s User Manual or with the manufacturer as not all DMX controllers have this capability. The Ovation CYC 3 FC supports RDM protocol that allows feedback to make changes to menu map options. Download the User Manual from www.chauvetprofessional.com for more details.

USB Software Update

The Ovation CYC 3 FC allows for software update through USB using the built-in USB port. To update the software using USB flash drive, do the following:

1. Power on the fixture and plug the flash drive into the USB port.
2. Once the flash drive has been detected, the message “Upgrade Firmware” will be displayed. Press .
3. If a different message appears on the display, search for the updated software in the Menu (Updated Firmware) and select from Only This Unit, Multiple Units, or Other Fixture Type. A list of the updated software files will be displayed.
4. Select the file that needs to be uploaded. The message “Are you sure?” will be displayed. Press .
5. If the selected file is correct, the upgrade will be completed. Restart the fixture.
6. If the selected file is incorrect, the upgrade will fail, and the display will go back to the main interface. Repeat steps 1-3 using the correct file.

The “Other Fixture Type” option can only be selected for connected products compatible with the Upload 03 (the first 2 digits of the item code must be 03).

Mounting Diagram

Virtual Color Wheel

The Ovation CYC 3 FC includes a feature called the Virtual Color Wheel (VCW). This feature is available as a standalone control mode for manual use and as a control channel in select DMX personalities. More than 30 premixed colors, custom blended by Chauvet engineers, are available to call up for easier programming.
The DMX values used to mix these colors are provided below. The overall intensity of the Ovation fixture can be adjusted to more closely replicate familiar industry-standard colors. A chart is available at www.chauvetprofessional.com to compare Chauvet’s premixed colors with popular gel colors. This chart is for comparison purposes only and is not an assertion that Chauvet’s premixed colors match any of the gel colors listed.
