    Why does the breaker or fuse keep blowing in my Chauvet Obey 3?

      Leslie ConleyAug 2, 2025
      If the breaker or fuse keeps blowing in your Chauvet Control Systems, it could be due to an excessive circuit load. Check the total load placed on the electrical circuit. Alternatively, there might be a short circuit along the power wires. Inspect the electrical wiring (internal and/or external) for any shorts.

    What causes signal loss in Chauvet Obey 3 Control Systems and how to fix it?
    • A
      Alexandra DennisAug 18, 2025
      A loss of signal in Chauvet Control Systems can occur due to several reasons: * Using non-DMX cables: Ensure you are using only DMX compatible cables. * Bouncing signals: Install a terminator. * Long cable/Low level signal: Install an amplifier right after the fixture with a strong signal. * Too many fixtures: Install an optically coupled DMX splitter after unit #32. * Interference from AC wires: Keep DMX cables separated from power cables or black lights.
