Chauvet DJ SlimPAR T12BT ILS — Bluetooth RGB ILS Par

Chauvet DJ SlimPAR T12BT ILS: Bluetooth RGB ILS Par for DJs, Weddings & Compact Stages

The Chauvet DJ SlimPAR T12BT ILS is a low-profile, high-output tri-color (RGB) LED Par that delivers fast, app-based control and unified show sync. Its 12 × 3.3 W RGB LEDs produce a smooth, flicker-free wash with a 25° beam / 46° field and up to 2,071 lux at 2 m—ideal for dance floors, décor uplighting, risers, and scenic color. Built-in Bluetooth (BTAir) enables instant control from a phone or tablet; ILS ties pars, movers, and effects into cohesive looks without programming. For clean load-ins, power-link up to 12 units @ 120 V (or 20 @ 230 V), and pack the fixture safely in the CHS-30 VIP gear bag.

Front-panel menus cover RGB mixing, auto/sound programs, speed, and dimming feel, while ILS side selection locks this PAR to the proper role in a GigBAR MOVE+ILS ecosystem. Need hands-on show leadership across an ILS rig? Pair with the ILS Command controller for one-button scenes and chases that span multiple fixture types.

Real-World Applications and Lighting Roles:

• Mobile DJ uplighting and dance-floor wash with zero-cable Bluetooth control
• Weddings and corporate décor where flicker-free color is critical for cameras
• Club side wash and truss toning using ILS show sync for unified color moves
• Speedy rentals: pre-addressed kits with power-linking for fast, repeatable rigs

Bluetooth (BTAir) Control Workflow for SlimPAR T12BT ILS

Skip extra hardware and drive your SlimPAR T12BT ILS straight from a phone or tablet using the BTAir app. Enable bLE on the fixture display, open the app, and it will discover and pair with T12BT units in range. From there, build scenes, call colors, set fades, and trigger chases—perfect for mobile DJ rigs and wedding lighting where speed matters.

• Pairing Path: MENU ? bLE ? ENTER to advertise; launch the app to connect.
• On-Device Overrides: Panel access to color mix, auto/sound programs, speed, and dimmer feel for quick tweaks between songs.
• Showcraft: Store repeatable looks in the app and roll them across rooms without cabling controllers.

ILS Synchronization & Role Mapping

Lock the T12BT into ILS (Integrated Lighting System) so it performs coordinated moves with pars, movers, kintas, strobes, and lasers—no console programming required. Choose iLS1–iLS4 and this unit will follow the PAR role on the selected side of a GigBAR MOVE+ILS setup, tracking color and intensity cues for unified looks.

• Side Mapping: Modes 1 & 3 align to side 1; 2 & 4 align to side 2.
• One-Button Sync: Trigger scenes across mixed fixtures for ballrooms, clubs, and corporate stages.
• System Control: For hands-on show direction, add ILS Command to drive system-wide chases and scene changes.

DMX Profiles & D-Fi USB Wireless Architecture

Run the SlimPAR T12BT ILS on traditional DMX or go cable-light with the optional D-Fi USB 2 interface. Two personalities—3-channel (R/G/B) and 7-channel—cover direct color control plus strobe, program selection, program speed/sound, and master dimmer.

• Address Ranges: 3-ch d001–510; 7-ch d001–506.
• Strobe via DMX: Up to ~10 Hz on the strobe channel (per DMX chart).
• Priority Stack: When installed, D-Fi USB ? wired DMX ? panel ensures reliable radio-first control.
• Wireless Master/Slave: Set D-Fi DIP 1–4 for channels 1–16; choose receive/transmit to mirror a lead unit.
• Connectivity: 3-pin XLR in/out; auto-ranging power 100–240 VAC for global deployments.

Handheld operation for quick hits is available with the IRC-6 remote, and padded transport is covered by the CHS-30 gear bag.

Standalone Engines: Presets, Auto, Sound & Dimmer Feel

Controller-free shows are built in. Call C001–C019 preset colors, choose P1–P5 auto programs, or engage Snd1–Snd5 for beat-reactive looks. Fine-tune pacing with S001–S100 speed and shape fades using dimmer feel L001–L255—from snappy bumps to smooth transitions.

• Custom Mix: Manual R/G/B values (000–255) for brand palettes and scenic accents without a console.
• Quick Resets: Panel workflow lets techs adjust speed/sensitivity mid-event without breaking Bluetooth or DMX control plans.
• Show Hygiene: Keep standalone units off DMX lines to prevent data conflicts in mixed rigs.

RGB Optics & Photometrics (25° / 46°)

A compact optical system with 12 × 3.3 W tri-color (RGB) LEDs delivers consistent wash fields for DJ uplighting, club wash, and stage décor. Expect smooth coverage through a 25° beam / 46° field with measured 2,071 lux @ 2 m—a practical balance of punch and spread for small to mid-sized rooms.

• Form Factor: Slim, 2.4 lb (1.1 kg) chassis designed to fit inside sticks of TRUSST® and pack efficiently.
• Power Linking: Up to 12 fixtures @ 120 V or 20 @ 230 V to streamline cabling and reduce wall runs.
• Use Cases: Perimeter uplight lines, riser wash, backdrop color, and truss toning in rental and mobile workflows.

How to Deploy the SlimPAR T12BT ILS in the Field

• Rigging & Safety: Use an appropriate clamp on truss/pipe and attach a secondary safety cable to the rear loop. When flying with a single clamp, use a captive-bolt clamp to prevent loosening.
• Ventilation & Orientation: Maintain at least 20 in (50 cm) clearance; mount in any position; keep within 104 °F (40 °C) ambient limits; indoor use only.
• Power Strategy: Auto-ranging 100–240 VAC. Daisy-chain up to 12 @ 120 V or 20 @ 230 V; separate high-draw devices on other circuits when possible.
• DMX Topology: 3-pin XLR in/out; terminate long runs; avoid mixing fixtures running standalone/Master-Slave on the same DMX universe.
• Wireless DMX: Insert D-Fi USB 2, set RX/TX DIP for the channel (1–16), and confirm the D-Fi module takes control priority before you fly fixtures.
• Bluetooth Workflow: Enable bLE, pair with BTAir, program scenes, then label/group fixtures in the app for room-by-room control.
• ILS Setup: Choose iLS1–iLS4 per side in a GigBAR MOVE+ILS rig so pars, movers, and effects track the correct cues. For show leadership, add ILS Command to drive synchronized scenes.
• Fast Uplight Lines: Use the yoke as a floor stand, pre-address groups, color-code power tails, and transport in a padded case such as CHS-30 for repeatable load-ins.
• Do Not: Connect to dimmer packs/rheostats, pinch power cords, block vents, or leave in corrosive or wet environments.
