FAQs about CHAUVET Professional COLORdash PAR H18 XIP RGBAWUV LED Wash Light

What type of light source does the COLORdash PAR H18 XIP use?

The fixture is powered by 18 high-output hex-color (RGBAW+UV) LEDs. This configuration allows you to generate a massive palette of colors, from subtle pastels and warm whites to intensely saturated hues, as well as vibrant ultraviolet effects.

Can the COLORdash PAR H18 XIP be used outdoors?

Yes. The "XIP" designation means the fixture is fully IP65-rated for temporary outdoor and wet use. It features a rugged, die-cast aluminum housing and utilizes weatherproof Seetronic Powerkon IP65 power and IP-rated DMX connections to ensure reliable performance in the rain, dust, or humidity.

What are the beam and field angles?

The fixture's advanced optics deliver a tight 25.4° beam angle for concentrated light output, while the field angle spreads to 39° to provide smooth, even wash coverage across stages or architectural features.

Is this wash light suitable for on-camera broadcast or film?

Yes, it is highly camera-friendly. To prevent any banding or flickering on video, the fixture offers multiple, user-selectable Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) frequencies ranging from 600 Hz up to 25,000 Hz, making it easily adaptable to various camera shutter speeds for broadcast and livestreamed events.

How do the white light and color temperature controls work?

The fixture includes built-in color temperature presets that allow you to quickly dial in calibrated white light. The color temperature range is highly versatile, extending from a warm 2800 K to a cool 10,000 K, which is perfect for matching other light sources in a room without needing to manually mix the RGBWA diodes.

How smooth is the dimming on this fixture?

It boasts flawless 16-bit electronic dimming and includes four selectable dimming curves. This ensures exceptionally smooth theatrical fades, completely eliminating any choppiness or flickering at the very bottom of the dimming range.

What are my DMX control options?

The fixture supports both standard DMX and RDM (Remote Device Management). It offers versatile programming with 5 different DMX channel personalities (ranging from 6, 8, 9, 13, and 14 channels). For data connections, the chassis includes both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR ports.

How can I adjust settings without a DMX controller?

The back panel features an easy-to-read OLED display with a touchscreen interface. This allows for simple, intuitive onboard configuration, standalone color mixing, and triggering built-in automated programs. The menu can also be password-protected to prevent unauthorized tampering during events.

How many fixtures can I daisy-chain for power?

Using the secure, IP-rated Seetronic Powerkon connections, you can safely power-link up to 9 units on a standard 120V circuit, up to 16 units on a 208V circuit, or up to 18 units on a 230V circuit, which significantly cuts down on cable clutter in your rig.
