Description
The CHAUVET DJ Core 5X1 ILS is a versatile COB LED effect light designed for professional live events and creative lighting installations. It can function as a pixel-mapping effect, chase effect, blinder, or wash light depending on the application. Its compact linear design allows it to be used as a floor-mounted uplight or integrated into larger lighting configurations. The fixture provides broad, saturated illumination while supporting multiple creative control options. This versatility makes the Core 5X1 ILS suitable for stages, events, clubs, productions, and touring applications.
COB RGB+WW Technology
The Core 5X1 ILS uses five 35W quad-color RGB+WW COB LEDs to produce a broad spectrum of colors and natural-looking white tones. COB technology provides smooth color output while helping create consistent and saturated illumination. The dedicated warm-white element expands the fixture's ability to produce natural color temperatures. A large reflector design contributes to the fixture's broad and visually smooth output. This combination makes the Core 5X1 ILS suitable for colorful effects and natural-looking lighting applications.
Pixel Mapping and Chase Effects
Multiple Core 5X1 ILS fixtures can be combined to create high-impact pixel-mapped looks and dynamic chase effects. The fixtures can also produce blinder bursts and broad color washes for visually powerful event effects. Built-in tool-free connecting hardware allows units to be attached together without requiring additional tools. Up to six fixtures can be connected vertically to create larger linear lighting arrangements. This modular design provides flexibility for creating custom shapes and larger visual installations.
ILS and Wireless Control
The Core 5X1 ILS is compatible with the ILS ecosystem, allowing it to participate in coordinated lighting shows with other compatible fixture types. Adding the separately available D-Fi USB enables wireless synchronization and control capabilities. The fixture also supports RF control for convenient wireless operation in compatible setups. Multiple control methods allow the Core 5X1 ILS to adapt to different production requirements. This makes it suitable for simple standalone operation and larger coordinated lighting systems.
Flexible DMX and Control Options
The Core 5X1 ILS provides 4, 8, or 22 DMX channel modes for different levels of lighting control. Three-pin and five-pin XLR connectors provide professional DMX connectivity for integration into lighting control systems. In addition to DMX, the fixture supports ILS, RF, Master/Slave, and standalone operation. This range of control options allows users to select the appropriate operating method for their setup. The fixture can therefore be used in advanced professional productions and simpler event lighting configurations.
Tour-Ready Construction
The Core 5X1 ILS features a robust housing designed to withstand the demands of frequent transportation and touring. Its 11 lb construction provides a substantial yet manageable fixture platform for professional applications. The built-in connecting hardware makes setup and reconfiguration easier when multiple units are used together. With power linking support, multiple fixtures can also be connected to simplify larger installations. Its durable construction and flexible mounting options make it well suited to repeated gig-to-gig use.
