DISCHARGE LAMP WARNING: This fixture is fitted with a discharge

lamp, which is highly susceptible to damage if improperly handled.

Never touch the lamp with your bare hands, as the oil from your hands

will shorten lamp life. Also, never move the fixture until the lamps have

had ample time to cool. Remember, lamps are not covered under

warranty conditions.

This fixture emits intense UV radiation, which is harmful to the eyes and skin. The intense

luminance of the lamp can cause severe damage to the retina. Never operate this fixture

with the protective covers removed, these covers have been specially designed to shield

against UV radiation.

Epileptic Warning: Those suffering from epilepsy should avoid looking directly into the

lamp at all times.

Avoid switching the fixture on and off repeatedly in short intervals, as this will reduce lamp

life and intensity.

To achieve the intensity associated with discharge lamps, these lamps use a gas sealed in

a high-pressure environment to emit a brilliant output. Due to the high pressure involved

with the construction of the lamp, the lamp may explode during prolonged extensive use.

This risk is increased with age; added care is encouraged when dealing with older lamps.

Thus, lamp should always be replaced at the end of their recommended duty cycle.

©Elation Professional®

Focus Spot 250R™

Extreme caution should be used when operated this or any fixture fitted with a gas

discharge lamp.

Never open this fixture while in use!

During the initial operation of this fixture, a light smoke or smell may emit from the interior of

the fixture. This is a normal process and is caused by excess paint in the interior of the

casing burning off from the heat associated with the lamp and will decrease gradually over

time.

This device falls under protection-class I. Therefore it is essential that the device be

grounded properly.

All electrical connections must carried out by qualified person.

Be sure the available voltage matches the voltage requirements of the unit.

Be sure the power cord is never crimped or damaged. If the power cord is damaged,

replace it immediately with a new one of similar power rating.

Always disconnect from main power before performing any type of service or any cleaning

procedure.

Only handle the power cord by the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the wire portion

of the cord.

Please be aware that damages caused by manual modifications to the device are not

5. LAMP INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Installing or replacing the lamp

Only install the lamp with the device unplugged from the mains.

The lamp has to be replaced when it is damaged or deformed.

Before replacing the lamp be sure the unit has ample time to cool, to avoid injury to yourself

never touch the lamp when it is hot.

During the installation of halogen lamps do not touch the glass bulbs bare handed. Always

use a cloth to handle the lamps during insertion and removal.

Do not install lamps with a higher wattage. They generate higher temperatures than which

the device was designed for.

For the installation, you need one MSD250/2 GY9.5 lamp;

Procedure:

1. Remove the two thumbscrews labeled “A” and “B” on the rear housing of the head.

2. Gently pull the lamp/socket assembly to access the lamp.

3. Gently remove the old lamp by grasping it by the ceramic base.

4. Carefully insert the new lamp into the socket. Please remember there is only one way

to insert the lamp. Once the lamp has be inserted into the socket, gently slide the

socket assembly back into place and fasten the two thumb screws.

©Elation Professional®

Focus Spot 250R™

Lamp Optimization

The lamp orientation and optimization must be adjusted after every lamp change. This

procedure centers the lamp in the reflector. Proper optimization will increase lamp life and

ensure a bright crisp output. Improper optimization may add a yellow tint to the lamp output

and reduce intensity. The minimum deviation amount is 1.0mm. Running the fixture within a

lower deviation can cause damage to the lamp and/or lens.

The Focus Spot 250R™ lamp holder is aligned at the factory. However, due to slight

imperfections in all lamps, fine adjustments will improve light performance. Please follow

the procedure below for proper lamp optimization:

1. Using either a DMX controller or the control panel on the unit, strike the lamp and

focus the light on a flat surface (beam open, white, no gobo, no effects).

2. Center the hot-spot (the brightest part of the beam) using the 3 adjustment screws.

Turn one screw at a time to drag the hot-spot diagonally across the projected image.

If you cannot detect a hot-spot, adjust the lamp until the light is even.

3. To reduce a hot-spot, pull the lamp in by turning all three screws clockwise 1/4-turn

at a time until the light is evenly distributed.

4. If the light is brighter around the edge than it is in the center, or if light output is low,

the lamp is too far back in the reflector. "Push” the lamp out by turning each the

adjustment screws ("1, 2, 3”) counterclockwise _-turn until the light is bright and

evenly distributed.

Do not operate this device with open cover

Please remember that a MSD-250/2 lamp is not a hot-restrike lamp therefore, you must

wait approximately 15 minutes after having turned the lamp off before you can attempt to

strike the lamp once again.

Focus Spot 250R™

6. Mounting and Installation

Mounting

The FOCUS SPOT 250R™ is fully operational in three different mounting positions,

hanging upside-down from a ceiling, side mounted, or set on a flat level surface (see

illustration below). Be sure this fixture is kept at least 0.5m away from any flammable

materials (decoration etc.). Always use and install the supplied safety cable as a safety

measure to prevent accidental damage in the event of a clamp failure (see section “b” on

the next page).

Refer to regulations BGV C1

(formerly VBG 70 ) and DIN

VDE0711-217 for proper installation in Europe

To ensure proper installation, only qualified staff should

attempt installation.

Mounting points

The FOCUS SPOT 250R™ has been designed to hold multiple clamps on the bottom of the

unit in several different orientations. Always use an appropriately rated clamp to mount this

fixture to truss. Refer to the printed instructions on the bottom of the fixture for proper clamp

©Elation Professional®

Focus Spot 250R™

installation. Never use the carrying handles for secondary attachment.

a) Cam lock System: This system allows a quick and efficient means to

secure a clamp to the unit. To secure a clamp to the unit, attach a clamp

that is rated to handle the weight of the unit to your cam lock. After a clamp

has been attached to the cam lock, attach the cam lock to the designated

position on the bottom of your unit. Lock the cam lock into position by

turning the wing nuts 90°.

90°

b) Be sure to always use two cam locks mounted to the bottom of unit to

ensure safe truss mounting.

Secure the FOCUS SPOT 250R™

Regardless of the rigging option you choose for your FOCUS SPOT 250R™ always

be sure to secure your fixture with a safety cable. The fixture provides a built-in

rigging point for a safety cable on the underside of the fixture, be sure to use this

point and never secure a safety cable to a carrying handle.

Focus Spot 250R™

7. Understanding DMX

Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX and Master/Slave Operation):

Your fixture and your DMX controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector for data

input and data output (see figure below). If you are constructing your own cables be

sure to use two conductor shielded digital cable rated at a 120 ohms (this cable can

be purchased at almost all professional sound and lighting stores). Your cables should

be made with a male and female 3-pin XLR connector on either end of the cable.

Be sure to follow the above figure when making your own cables. Do not use the ground

lug on the XLR connector. Do not connect the cable’s shield conductor to the ground lug

or allow the shield conductor to come in contact with the XLR’s outer casing. Grounding

the shield could cause a short circuit and erratic behavior.

DMX-512 control connection

Connect the provided XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of your controller and the

other side to the male 3-pin XLR input of the moving head (Please refer to the diagram

below.). You can chain multiple moving heads together through serial linking. The cable

needed should be two conductor, shielded cable with XLR input and output connectors.

Always be sure daisy chain your in and out data connections, never split or “Y” your DMX

connections unless you are using an approved DMX splitter such as the Elation Opto

Branch 4™ or DMX Branch/4™.

©Elation Professional®

Focus Spot 250R™

DMX-512 connection with DMX terminator

When longer runs of cable are used, you may need to use a terminator on the last fixture to

avoid erratic behavior. A terminator is a 90-120 ohm 1/4 watt resistor that is connected

between pins 2 and 3 of a male XLR connector (DATA + and DATA -). This fixture is

inserted in the female XLR connector of the last fixture in your daisy chain to terminate the

line. Using a cable terminator (Elation part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities

of erratic behavior.

CONTROLLER

5-Pin XLR DMX Connectors. Some manufactures use 5-pin XLR connectors for DATA

transmission in place of 3-pin. 5-pin XLR fixtures may be implemented in a 3-pin XLR DMX

line. When inserting standard 5-pin XLR connectors in to a 3-pin line a cable adaptor must

be used, these adaptors are readily available at most electric stores. The following chart

details a proper cable conversion.

©Elation Professional®

Focus Spot 250R™

Fixture DMX address;

All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX signal, so the

correct fixture responds to the correct control signal. This digital starting address is the

channel number from which the fixture starts to “listen” to the digital control information sent

out from the DMX controller. The allocation of this starting DMX address is achieved by

setting the correct DMX address on the digital display located on the base of the device.

You can set the same starting address for all fixtures or a group of fixtures, or make

different address for each fixture individually. Be advised that setting all you fixtures to the

same DMX address will subsequently control all fixtures in the same fashion, in other

words, changing the settings of one channel will affect all the fixtures simultaneously.

If you set each fixture to a different DMX address, each unit will start to “listen” to the

channel number you have set, based on the quantity of control channels (DMX channels) of

each unit. That means changing the settings of one channel will affect only the selected

fixture.

In the case of the Focus Spot 250R™, which is a 11 channel fixture, you should set the

starting address of the first unit to 1, the second unit to 12 (11 + 1), the third to 23 (12 + 11),

and so on.

Note:

After switching on, the Focus Spot 250R™ will automatically detect whether a DMX data

signal is being received or not. If DMX data signal is being received, the display will show

"A.XXX" (XXX representing the actual DMX address). If the fixture is not receiving a DMX

©Elation Professional®

Focus Spot 250R™

signal the display will flash "A.XXX" (XXX representing the actual DMX address).

If your fixture is connected to a DMX controller and the display is flashing (not receiving a

DMX signal), please check the following:

- The 3 PIN XLR plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not connected or is

not inserted completely into the DMX input jack.

- The DMX controller is switched off or defective.

- The DMX cable or connector is defective.

10.ERROR CODES:

When power is applied, the unit will automatically enter a “reset/test” mode. This mode

brings all the internal motors to a home position. If there is an internal problem with one or

more of the motors an error code will flash in the display in the form of “XXer” were as XX

will represent a function number. For example, when the display shows “02Er,” it means

there is some type of error with the channel 2 motor. If there are multiple errors during the

start-up process they will all flash in the display. For example: if the fixtures has errors on

channel 1, channel 2, and channel 5 all at the same time, you will see the error message

“01Er”, “02Er,” and ”05Er” flash repeated 5 times.

If an error does occur during the initial start-up procedure the fixture will self-generate a

second reset signal and try to realign all the motors and correct the errors, if the error

persist after a second attempt a third attempt will be made.

If after a third attempt all the errors have not been corrected the fixture will make the

following determinations: 1) 3 or more errors - The fixture cannot function properly with

three or more errors therefore the fixture will place itself in a stand-by mode until

subsequent repairs can be made. 2) Less than 3 errors - The fixture has less than 3 errors,

therefore most other functions will work properly. The fixture will attempt to operate

normally until the errors can be correct by a technician. The errors in question will remain

flashing in the display as a reminder of internal errors.

01Er – PAN movement error:

The yoke is not located in the default position after start-up or after a reset command.

This message will appear after a fixture reset if the pan-yoke’s magnetic-indexing circuit

malfunctions (sensor failed or magnet is missing) or there is a stepper motor failure

(defective motor or a defective motor IC drive on the main PCB).

03Er – TILT movement error:

The head is not located in the default tilt position after start-up or after a reset command.

This message will appear after a fixture reset if the tilt magnetic-indexing circuit

malfunctions (sensor failed or magnet is missing) or there is a stepper motor failure

(defective motor or a defective motor IC drive on the main PCB).

Focus Spot 250R™

05Er - Color-wheel error:

The color wheel is not located in the default position after start-up or after a reset

command.

This message will appear after a fixture reset if the color wheel’s magnetic-indexing circuit

malfunctions (sensor failed or magnet is missing) or there is a stepper motor failure

(defective motor or a defective motor IC drive on the main PCB).

06Er - Rotating gobo-wheel error:

The gobo-wheel is not located in the default position after start-up or after a reset

command.

This message will appear after a fixture reset if the gobo wheel’s magnetic-indexing circuit

malfunctions (sensor failed or magnet is missing) or there is a stepper motor failure

(defective motor or a defective motor IC drive on the main PCB).

07Er - Rotating gobo indexing error:

The gobo is not located in the default position after start-up or after a reset command.

This message will appear after a fixture reset if the gobo positioning magnetic-indexing

circuit malfunctions (sensor failed or magnet is missing) or there is a stepper motor failure

(defective motor or a defective motor IC drive on the main PCB).
