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.

Product Overview

Product Dimensions

Setup

AC Power

The Rogue R1E Spot has an auto-ranging power supply, and it can work with an input voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. To determine the product’s power requirements (circuit breaker, power outlet, and wiring), use the current value listed on the label affixed to the product’s back panel, or refer to the product’s specifications chart. The listed current rating indicates the product’s average current draw under normal conditions.

• Always connect the product to a protected circuit (a circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure the product has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.
• To eliminate unnecessary wear and improve its lifespan, during periods of non-use completely disconnect the product from power via breaker or by unplugging it.

Never connect the product to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0 to 100% switch.

AC Plug

The Rogue R1E Spot comes with a power input cable terminated with a Seetronic Powerkon A connector on one end and bare wire on the other end (U.S. market). Use the table below to wire a plug.

Power Linking

This product comes with a power input cord. Power-linking cables are available from Chauvet for purchase.
It is possible to power link Rogue R1E Spot products. See the table below for the current draw at each voltage and frequency:

| 100 V, 60 Hz| 120 V, 60 Hz| 208 V, 60 Hz| 230 V, 50 Hz| 240 V, 50 Hz
---|---|---|---|---|---
Current Draw| 3.17 A| 2.63 A| 1.50 A| 1.36 A| 1.32 A

Never exceed 12 A on a single circuit. Power-linking cables can be purchased separately.

Fuse Replacement

1. Disconnect this product from the power outlet.
2. Using a flat-head screwdriver, unscrew the fuse holder cap from the housing.
3. Remove the blown fuse and replace with another fuse of the same type and rating (F 7 A, 250 V).
4. Screw the fuse holder cap back in place and reconnect power.

DMX Linking

The Rogue R1E Spot can be linked to a DMX controller using a 3-pin or 5-pin DMX connection. If using other DMX-compatible products with this product, each can be controlled individually with a single DMX controller. For more information about DMX, read the DMX primer at: https://www.chauvetprofessional.com/wp- content/uploads/2016/06/DMX_Primer.pdf.

DMX Personalities

The Rogue R1E Spot uses a 3-pin or 5-pin DMX data connection for the 17- and 20-channel DMX personalities.

• Refer to the Operation chapter to learn how to configure the Rogue R1E Spot to work in these personalities.
• The DMX Values section provides detailed information regarding the DMX personalities.

Remote Device Management

Remote Device Management (RDM) is a standard for allowing DMX-enabled devices to communicate bidirectionally along existing DMX cabling. Check the DMX controller’s User Manual or with the manufacturer as not all DMX controllers have this capability. The Rogue R1E Spot supports RDM protocol that allows feedback to make changes to menu map options.

USB Update

The Rogue R1E Spot allows for software update through USB using the built-in USB port. To update the software using a USB type C 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 “USB UPDATE” will be displayed. Select YES.
3. The next screen will show the software versions available for this fixture on the USB drive. For multiple versions of the software for the same fixture, use or to select the desired version. Press .
4. The “USB UPDATE” screen will re-appear. Select YES.
5. The updgrade will start. DO NOT turn off the power or disconnect the USB while the USB LED is still blinking during the process. The screen display will read: “USB UPDATE WAIT”. USB update can take several minutes to complete.
   • Warning: When the USB stops blinking, all the motors will power down and the display will go blank. DO NOT turn off the power. The fixture will automatically reboot when the update is done.
6. Go to the Fixture Information on the product’s menu map and confirm the firmware revision
7. When the boot-up process is finished, restart the product.
   • Place the .chl file in the root directory of the USB drive.
   • The product’s USB port supports up to 32GB capacity and only works with FAT32 file format.

Turning off the power or removing the USB while still blinking during the update will cause partial or total firmware failure in the targeted fixture(s). If this occurs, the user will need the UPLOAD 08 device to fix this. Please contact Chauvet regarding this device.

Gobo Replacement

The gobos in the Rogue R1E Spot are removable from their gobo holders.

Warning

• Make sure to disconnect the product’s power cable before replacing a gobo.
• Always replace a gobo with a gobo of the same dimensions.
• When inserting a glass gobo, always make sure that the shiny side of the gobo (glass base) faces the lamp. This provides a layer of protection against the high temperature from the lamp.
• All custom gobos in the Rogue R1E Spot gobo wheel 1 must be aluminum or glass.

Procedure

Follow the recommended procedure below to remove or replace the gobos:

1. Turn the product off and disconnect it from the power outlet.
2. Open the head cover by loosening the 4 Phillips-head ¼-turn screws on the sides of the top cover.
3. Separate the gobo holder away from the gobo wheel by pushing it toward the front of the moving head (see direction 1 in the diagram). Be careful not to push the gobo out of the gobo holder.
4. Extract the gobo holder by pulling it outward (see direction 2 in the diagram).
5. On a flat surface, remove the expansion ring that holds the gobo in place and remove the gobo from the gobo holder.
6. Insert a new gobo and hold it in lace with the expansion ring.
7. Slide the tip of the gobo holder under the pressure plate near the center of the gobo wheel.
8. Push the gobo holder inwards. DO NOT force the gobo holder into the gobo wheel slot. If correctly installed, the gobo plate should easily slide itself into the gobo wheel slot.
