FCC Statement of Compliance
This device complies with Part 15 Part B of the FCC rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:
- This device may not cause harmful interference, and
- This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
RF Exposure Warning for North America and Australia
Waming! This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set
forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and
operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between the radiator and the user.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
Expected LED Lifespan
Over time, use and heat will gradually reduce LED brightness. Clustered LEDs
produce more heat than single LEDs, contributing to shorter lifespans if
always used at full intensity. The average LED lifespan is 40,000 to 50,000
hours. To extend LED lifespan, maintain proper ventilation around the product,
and limit the overall intensity.

in and out ports. If using other compatible products with this product, it is
possible to control each individually with a single controller.
Control Personalities
The Maverick Storm 1 Hybrid uses a 5-pin DMX data connection, Lumen radio
CRMX™, Art-Net™, or sac for its two control personalities: Dmx Mode 24 CH and
Dmx Mode 29 CH.
- Refer to the Operation chapter to learn how to configure the Maverick Storm 1 Hybrid to work in these personalities.
- The Control Channel Assignments and Values section provides detailed information regarding the control personalities.

DMX Linking
The Maverick Storm 1 Hybrid can link to a DMX controller using a 5-pin DMX
connection or a Lumen radio CRMX™ connection. For more information about DMX,
read the DMX primer at:
https://www.chauvetprofessional.com/wp-
ontent/uploads/2016/06/DMX_Primer.pdf.
Art-Net™ Connection
Art-Net™ is an Ethernet protocol that uses TCP/IP that transfers a large
amount of DMX512 data using an Amphenol XLRnet RJ45 connection over a large
network. An Art-Net™ protocol document is available from
www.chauvetprofessional.com.
Art-Net™ designed by and copyright Artistic Licence Holdings Ltd.
SACN Connection
