loosening the 3 Phillips screws on the cover.
Gently pull out the lamp assembly.
If changing the lamp, remove the old lamp from the soc ket. Insert the lamp to the socket.
Do not install a lamp with a higher wattage! A lamp like this generates temperatures the device is not designed
for.
Damages caused by non-observance are not subject to warranty. Please f ollow the lamp man ufacturer‘s notes!
Do not touch the glass-bulb bare hand during the installation! Make sure that the lamp is installed tightly into the
lampholder system.
Reinsert the lamp assemby and tighten 3 screws again.
Before striking the lamp, reset the "LAti" counter in the main menu of the Control Board, by pressing the "Up"
and "Down" buttons in one time and then confirming with the Enter-button.
Do not operate this fixture with opened housing-cover!
4.2 Lamp adjustment
The fixture lampholder is aligned at the factory . Due to differences
between lamps, fine adjustment may improve light performance.
Strike the lamp and focus the light on a flat surface (wall).
Center the hot-spot (the brightest part of the beam) using the 3
adjustment screws „A, B, C”.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.
T o reduce a hot-spot, pull the lamp in by turning all three screw s
„A, B, C” clockwise 1/4-turn at a time until the light is evenly
distributed.
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.

4.5 Rigging the fixture
Danger of fire !
When installing the device, make sure there is no highly inflammable
material (decoration articles, etc.) in between a distance of min. 0,5 m.
Warning ! Use 2 clamps to rig the fixture on the truss.
Follow the instructions mentioned at the bottom of the base.
Make sure that the device is fixed properly! Ensure that
the structure (truss) to which you are attaching the fixtures is secure.
The installation of the projector has to be built and constructed in a way that it can hold 10 times the weight for 1
hour without any harming deformation.
The installation must always be secured with a secondary safety attachment, e.g. an appropriate catch net. Thi s
secondary safety attachment must be constructed in a way that no part of the installation can fall down if the
main attachment fails.
When rigging, derigging or servicing the fixture staying in the area below the installation place, on bridges, under
high working places and other endangered areas is forbidden.
The moving-head can be placed directly on the stage floor or rigged in any orientation on a truss without altering
its operation characteristics (see the drawing).
You can fix the WASH 250 XT on a truss via 2 Omega holders or using the mounting plate(it is not the standard
part of delivery) or screw the clamps directly to 2 holes (5) in the base.
For overhead use , alwa ys install a saf ety-rope that can hold at least 10 times the w eight of the fixture. You must
only use safety-ropes with screw-on carabines. Pull the safety-rope through the two apertures on the bottom of
the base and over the trussing system etc. Insert the end in the carabine and tighten the fixation screw .
Fixation via Omega holders
1.Bolt each clamp (1) to the omega holder (4) with M12 bolt and lock nut through the hole in the holder .
2.Fasten the omega holders on the bottom of the base by inserting both quick-lock f asteners (3) into the holes of
the base and tighten fully clockwise.

4.6 DMX-512 connection/connection between fixtures
The wires must not come into contact with each other , otherwise
the fixtures will not work at all, or will not w ork properly .
Only use a stereo shielded cable and 3-pin XLR-plugs and connectors in order to connect the controller with the
fixture or one fixture with another.
Occupation of the XLR-connection:
DMX - output DMX-input
XLR mounting-socket: XLR mounting-plug:
If you are using the standard DMX-controllers, you can connect the DMX-output of the controller directly with the
DMX-input of the first fixture in the DMX-chain. If you wish to connect DMX-controllers with other XLR-outputs,
you need to use adapter-cables.
Building a serial DMX-chain:
Connect the DMX-output of the first fixture in the DMX-chain with the DMX-input of the next fixture. Always
connect one output with the input of the next fixture until all fixtures are connected.
Caution: At the last fixture, the DMX-cable has to be terminated with a terminator. Solder a 120 W resistor
between Signal (–) and Signal (+) into a 3-pin XLR-plug and plug it in the DMX-output of the last fixture.

6. Controller mode
The fixtures are individually addressed (001-497) on a data link and connected to the controller.The fixtures
respond to the DMX signal from the controller.
6.1 DMX addressing
The control panel on the front panel of the fixture allows you to assign the DMX fixture address, which is defined
as the first channel from which the W ASH 250 XT will respond to the controller .
If you set, for e xample, the address to channel 5, the WASH 250 XT will use the channel 5 to 20 f or control.
Please, be sure that you don’t hav e any overlapping channels in order to control each W ASH 250 XT correctly and
independently from any other fixture on the DMX data link.
If two, three or more WASH 250 XT are addressed similarly , the y will work similarly .
For address setting, please refer to the instructions under "Addressing"(menu "A001").
Controlling:
After having addressed all W ASH 250 XT , y ou ma y now start operating these via your lighting controller .
Note:After switching on, the WASH 250 XT will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not.If
there is no data received at the DMX-input, the display will start to flash "A001" with actually set address.
This situation can occur if:
- the 3 PIN XLR plug (cable with DMX signal from controller) is not connected with the input of the W ASH 250 XT
- the controller is switched off or defective, the cable or connector is defective or the signal wires are swap in the
input connector.
Note:It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) to the last fixture in the link in order to
ensure proper transmission on the DMX data link.
6.2 Remotely controllable functions
Lamp
The W ASH 250 XT is to be operated with a MSD/HSD 250 or MSD 250/2 GY-9,5 lamp.
A relay inside of the WASH 250 XT allows you to switch on and off the lamp via the control panel or via your DMXcontroller without affecting the rest of the lighting.
To switch On/Off the lamp, please refer to "Switching On/Off the lamp " (menu "LAMP").
Note: It is also important to note, that the discharge lamp is cold restrike types, that means, that they have to be
cold before re-striking. For this reason, you have to wait 5 minutes (max. speed of fan must be adjusted) after
having switched Off the lamp before you can switch it back On again. If you try to switch On the lamp within 5
minutes after having switched it Off, the WASH 250 XT will store this information and automatically ignite the
lamp when the 5 minutes period has expired. The message "HEAt" will appear on the control panel display of the
WASH 250 XT. If the ignition of the lamp is seven times unsuccessful, on the display will appear "LA.Er",
meaning that the lamp could be damaged or even missed, or there could be a failure on the ignitor or ballast.
Colour wheel
The W ASH 250 XT features a colour-wheel with 7 color positions - 6 of these with dichroic colors and the last one
open. It is also possible to rotate the color-wheel continuously at different speeds - the so-called "Rainbow effect“
is created.
CMY - colours mixing system
The CMY color mixing system is based on graduated cyan, magenta, and yellow color filters. A continuous range
of colors may be achieved by varying the amount of each filter from 0 to 100%.
Beam effects
The beam shaper allow you to widen and flatten beam. Beam shaper rotates 180°.
Frost filter on the same wheel as beam shaper softens the beam.
Dimmer
Smooth 0 - 100 % dimming is provided by the special dimmer unit.
Shutter/Strobe
Extremely fast shutter may also be used for strobe effect (1 - 10 flashes per second)
15
Fans
The W ASH 250 XT is cooled b y free axial fans - two in the projector head and one in the base . The speed of the
fan (and of course the noise) can be continuously reduced if very quiet performance is required.
By the Control Board using the "FAnS” function you can choose 5 types of fan speed oper ating modes.
7. Stand - alone mode
The fixtures on a data link are not connected to the controller but can execute pre-set programs which can be
different for e very fixture.To set the program to be played,see the "Stand-alone setting" ( menu "St.AL.").
"Stand-alone operation" can be applied to the single fixture (the fixture may be set to the master /slave mode or
controller mode ) or to multiple fixtures operating synchronously.
Synchronous operation of multiple fixtures requires that they must be connected on a data link and one of them
is set as a master (master mode) and the rest as the slaves (slave mode).The slaves are assigned to SLA1SLA9 and on the certain slave address can be connected only one fixture.To set the fixture as the master or
slave , see the "Addressing" (menu "A001").
If the master fixture runs a reset,switches On/Off the lamp or plays test(program) ,all slaves will execute
these acts too (e.g. if the master fixture has switched the lamp off,no slaves can switch the lamp on)!
Y ou can't play or edit any pr ograms on the slaves by their control panels if the master is switc hed on and
connected to the master/slave chain.
The master fixture starts simultaneous program start in the other s lave fixtures.All fixtures have a definite,
synchronized starting point when playing back their prog rams.The number of running program is the same in all
slaves and depends on the master's choice (menu "St.AL." ).Every fixture runs its program repeatedly ,starting
the program step No.1 when requested b y the master .
For example:
If the slave fixture has a shorter program length, it will continously repeat its program until the master fixture
finishes its own program and restarts its program running (slave 1- prog.step 3 will not be finished).
If the slave fixture has a longer program length, it will restart at prog. step 1 bef ore it completes all its prog.steps
(slave 2 - prog.step 5 will not be pla yed)- see the picture bellow.
Note:Disconect the fixtures from the DMX controller before master/slave operating ,otherwise data collisions can
occur and the fixtures will not work properly!
It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) into the input of the master fixture and into the
output of the last slave fixture in the data link in order to ensure proper transmission on the data link.
From the master's control panel is possib le to control any sla v e in a master/sla v e chain.

11. Maintenance and cleaning
It is absolutely essential that the fixture is kept clean and that dust, dirt and smoke-fluid residues must not build
up on or within the fixture. Otherwise, the fixture‘s light-output will be significantly reduced. Regular cleaning will
not only ensure the maximum light-output, but will also allow the fixture to function reliably throughout its life.
A soft lint-free cloth moistened with any good glass cleaning fluid is recommended, under no circumstances
should alcohol or solvents be used!
DANGER !
Disconnect from the mains before starting any
maintenance work
The fresnel lens will require weekly cleaning as smoke-fluid tends to building up residues, reducing the lightoutput very quickly. The cooling-f ans should be cleaned monthly.
The interior of the fixture should be cleaned at least annually using a vacuum-cleaner or an air-jet.
The dichroic colour-filters should be cleaned monthly .
Replacing the fuse
If the lamp burns out, the fine-wire fuse of the device might fuse, too . Only replace the fuse b y a fuse of same type
and rating .
Before replacing the fuse, unplug mains lead.
Procedure:
Step 1: Unscrew the fuseholder on the rear panel with a fitting screwdriver from the housing (anti-clockwise).
Step 2: Remo ve the old fuse from the fuseholder .
Step 3: Install the new fuse in the fuseholder.
Step 4: Replace the fuseholder in the housing and fix it.
