carton appears to be damaged, carefully inspect your xture for any
damage and be sure all accessories necessary to operate the unit
have arrived intact. In the event damage has been found or parts are
missing, please contact our toll free customer support number for further instructions. Please, do not return this unit to your dealer without

Introduction: The Warp 250™ uses 11 color/gobo combinations to
create a colorful hightech moonflower effect, that changes to the beat
of music. This unit is part of the Advanced Drive Series (ADS). Any unit
that has the ADS logo is designed to interconnect and work together.
When several ADS effects are linked together they can form an inexpensive system that creates an intelligent look. This unit is best used in
multiples of four or more. For best results mix and match several ADS
units together with a fog or haze machine to enhance the beam output.
An optional MINI/C controller may be purchased separately and will
control a blackout function.
