I get this random flashing. Not the typical flicker associated with dimming. The unit actually flashes other colors randomly. I have full dimming control, DMX is good and clean. This is happening with all 12 of my fixtures. I'm thinking the issue is in the fixture profile so this is what I'm thinking of trying.
That's great, John, but why should a user buy a piece of external hardware when Chauvet is (apparently) willing to provide the parts to make its fixtures DMX512-compliant for free?We've completely, totally solved this problem, albeit by adding a bit of external hardware. ...

I agree with Derek on this one. I got my retrofit kits last September, and have not had a single issue since then. Installation time was 20 minutes max.

I would argue that this problem has not gone away. I have 7 of them linked together and I am having the same issue. Using a smartfade and going through a splitter. Im baffled.
Hi Mike,
This was mentioned earlier, but for some reason the link doesn't appear above.
We've shipped these all over the country, much to the delight of many different customers. There's a 30 day no-questions-asked return policy if you're not thrilled. I know it's a hassle to add extra gear, but this little box will solve the problem in about 30 seconds. Just insert it at the top of the DMX run which feeds the flickering fixtures.

Hi John,
Since we occasionally have to recommend people find a suitable DMX timing altering device for their low cost fixtures, I wouldn't mind taking a look at one for a week to see how it performs. Let me know if you have an interest in sending one my way and I will warm up the 'scopes.
