Safety Notes

The Safety Notes include important laser system safety information. Read and understand all instructions

before powering on the laser for the first time. Knowing these safety instructions is crucial to avoiding laser

eye injury and breaking the law. Keep this User Manual in a safe place for future reference.

STOP AND READ ALL LASER SAFETY DATA

• Lasers can be hazardous and have unique safety considerations. Permanent eye injury and

blindness are possible if lasers are used incorrectly. Pay close attention to each safety

REMARK and WARNING statement in this User Manual. Read all instructions carefully

BEFORE operating this device.

• Always connect the product to a grounded circuit to avoid the risk of electrocution.

• Always disconnect the product from the power source before cleaning.

• Avoid direct eye exposure to the light source while the product is on.

• Make sure the power cord is not crimped or damaged.

• Never disconnect the product from power by pulling or tugging on the cord.

• If mounting the product overhead, always secure to a fastening device using a safety cable.

• Make sure there are no flammable materials close to the product when operating.

• Do not touch the product’s housing when operating because it may be very hot.

• This product is not intended for permanent installation.

• Always make sure that the voltage of the outlet to which you are connecting the product is

within the range stated on the decal or rear panel of the product.

• The product is for indoor use only! (IP20) To prevent risk of fire or shock, do not expose the

product to rain or moisture.

• Always install the product in a location with adequate ventilation, at least 20 in (50 cm) from

adjacent surfaces.

• Be sure that no ventilation slots on the product’s housing are blocked.

• Never connect the product to a dimmer.

• Make sure to replace the fuse with another of the same type and rating.

• Always use the mounting bracket to carry the product.

• Do not switch the product on/off in short intervals. This will reduce the laser diode life.

• Do not shake this product. Avoid brute force when mounting or operating this product.

• ALWAYS use a safety cable when mounting the product overhead.

• The ambient operating temperature for the laser is 59 °F to 95 °F (15 °C to 35 °C). Do not

operate this product outside this range.

• In the event of a serious operating problem, stop using the product immediately.

• Never try to repair the product. Repairs carried out by unskilled people can lead to damage or

malfunction. Contact the nearest authorized technical assistance center.

CAUTION! Use of controls, adjustments, or procedures other than THOSE specified IN

THIS USER MANUAL may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

• Avoid direct eye contact with laser light. Never intentionally expose your eyes or others to

direct laser light.

• This laser product can potentially cause instant eye injury or blindness if laser light directly

strikes the eyes.

• It is illegal and dangerous to shine this laser into audience areas, where the audience or other

personnel could get direct laser beams or bright reflections in

to their eyes.

• It is a U.S. federal offense to shine any laser at aircraft.

• To eliminate wear and improve its lifespan, during periods of non-use completely disconnect

from power via breaker or by unplugging it.

• DO NOT attempt any repairs. Repairs and servicing must be carried out by a certified

technician. Unauthorized modifications are forbidden for safety reasons!

Keep this User Manual for future consultation. If transferring ownership of the product to

another user, be sure this document is kept with the laser.

Non-Interlocked Housing Warning

Laser Safety Notes

Laser light is different from any other light. Laser light can cause eye injury if the product is not set up and

used properly. Laser light is a thousand times more concentrated than any other kind of light. This

concentration can cause instant eye injuries by burning the retina (the light-sensitive portion at the back of

the eye). The heat from a laser light cannot be felt, but it can still injure or blind product operators and the

audience. Even very small amounts of laser light at long distances are potentially hazardous.

DO NOT assume that exposure to an individual laser beam is safe, even a tiny beam split off from a larger

beam. This laser product uses dozens of milliwatts of laser power—Class 3B levels internally—and splits

them into multiple beams—Class 3R levels. The individual Class 3R level beams are potentially hazardous

to the eyes.

DO NOT assume that a moving laser light is safe. Laser light is never without risk. Since eye injuries can

occur instantly, it is critical to prevent the possibility of ANY direct eye exposure. According to laser safety

regulations, it is not legal to aim Class 3R lasers into areas where people can be exposed, even if the laser

is aimed below people’s faces, such as at a dance floor.

• This unit contains high power laser devices internally.

• Do not open the laser housing, due to potential exposure to unsafe levels of laser radiation.

• The laser power levels, accessible if the unit is opened, can cause instant blindness, skin

burns, and fires.

STOP AND READ ALL THE LASER SAFETY NOTES BELOW

• Do not operate the laser without first reading and understanding all the safety and technical

data in this manual.

• ALWAYS set up and install all laser effects so that any laser light is at least 3 meters (9.8 feet)

above the floor on which people are standing. See the Proper Usage

section of this manual.

• After setup, and prior to public use, test the lasers to ensure they are functioning properly. Do

not use the product if any defect is detected.

• DO NOT point lasers at people or animals.

• DO NOT look into the laser aperture or laser beams.

• DO NOT point lasers into areas where people could be exposed to them.

• DO NOT point lasers at highly reflective surfaces such as windows, mirrors, and shiny metal.

Even laser reflections can be hazardous.

• Never point a laser at aircraft; this is a U.S. federal offense.

• Never point unterminated laser beams into the sky.

• Do not expose the output optic (aperture) to harsh cleaning chemicals.

• Do not use the laser if the housing is damaged, open, or if the optics appear damaged in any

way.

• Never open the laser housing. The high laser power levels inside of the protective housing can

start fires or burn skin, and will cause instant eye injury.

• Never leave this product running unattended.

• The operation of a Class 3R laser show is allowed only if the lasers are operated by a skilled

and well-trained professional, who is familiar with the data included in this manual.

• The legal requirements for using laser entertainment products vary from country to country.

The user is responsible for the legal requirements in the location/country of use.

CAUTION! Do not operate this device in ways not specified in this User Manual. Failure to

follow the instructions will void the warranty, may damage the product, or injure the user

or the audience.

CAUTION! This product cannot be discarded with household waste. Contact your local

waste management service for electronic disposal regulations in your area.

3. Setup

AC Power

The Swarm 5 FX 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

Technical Specifications

. The listed current rating indicates the product’s average current draw under

normal conditions.

Fuse Replacement

1. Disconnect the product from power.

2. Wedge the tip of a flat-head screwdriver into the slot of the fuse holder.

3. Pry the fuse holder out of the housing.

4. Remove the blown fuse from the holder and replace with a fuse of the exact same type and rating.

5. Insert the fuse holder back in place and reconnect power.

Power Linking

The product provides power linking via the outlet located in the back of the product. See the diagram below

for further explanation.

Power Linking Diagram

• 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.

Disconnect the product from the power outlet before replacing the fuse.

Always replace a blown fuse with one of the same type and rating.

You can power link up to 15 Swarm 5 FX products on 120 VAC or up to 26 Swarm 5 FX

products on 230 VAC.

The power linking diagram shown above corresponds to the North American version of

the product ONLY! If using the product in other markets, you must consult with the local

Chauvet distributor as power linking connectors and requirements may differ in your

country or region.

Master/Slave Mode

The Master/Slave mode allows a single Swarm 5 FX product (the “master”) to control the actions of one or

more Swarm 5 FX products (the “slaves”) without the need of a DMX controller. The master product will be

set to operate in standalone mode, while the slave products will be set to operate in slave mode. Once set

and connected, the slave products will operate in unison with the master product.

Configure the products as indicated below.

Slave products:

1. Press <MENU> repeatedly until SLA blinks on the display.

2. Press <ENTER>.

3. Connect the DMX input of the first slave product to the DMX output of the master product.

4. Connect the DMX input of the subsequent slave products to the DMX output of the previous slave

product.

5. Finish setting and connecting all the slave products.

Master product:

1. Set the master product to operate in standalone mode.

2. Make the master product the first product in the DMX daisy chain.

Never connect a product that is operating in any standalone mode to a DMX string

connected to a DMX controller. Products in standalone mode may transmit DMX signals

that could interfere with the DMX signals from the controller.

• The product will only respond to low frequencies of music (bass and drums).

• The laser will black out when in Sound-Active mode after 3 seconds of silence or noise

below the sensitivity setting.

• Configure all the slave products before connecting the master to the daisy chain.

• The display on the slave products will continue to blink until a signal from the master

product is received.

• Never connect a DMX controller to a DMX string configured for Master/Slave operation

because the controller may interfere with the signals from the master.

• Do not connect more than 31 slaves to the master.

Maintenance

Swarm 5 FX User Manual Rev. 5

5. Maintenance

Product Maintenance

Dust build-up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduction of

the light source’s life and/or mechanical wear. To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, clean

your lighting products at least twice a month. However, be aware that usage and environmental conditions

could be contributing factors to increase the cleaning frequency.

To clean the product, follow the instructions below:

1. Unplug the product from power.

2. Wait until the product is at room temperature.

3. Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust collected on the external

surface/vents.

4. Clean all transparent surfaces with a mild soap solution, ammonia-free glass cleaner, or isopropyl

alcohol.

5. Apply the solution directly to a soft, lint free cotton cloth or a lens cleaning tissue.

6. Softly drag any dirt or grime to the outside of the transparent surface.

7. Gently polish the transparent surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.

Always dry the transparent surfaces carefully after cleaning them.
