- Page 4 • The exterior of the fixture can reach temperatures up to 65° C (150° F). Allow the fixture to cool for at least 5 minutes before handling. • Do not modify the fixture or install other than genuine Martin parts. • Do not operate the fixture if the ambient temperature (Ta) exceeds 40° C (104° F).
- Page 5 I n s t a l l i n g o r c h a n g i n g t h e l a m p The SynchroZap QX250 is designed to use the Philips MSD-200 or MSD-250/2 discharge lamp.
- Page 6 W A R N I N G ! Disconnect the fixture from AC power before proceeding. The lamp operates under high temperature and pressure and can explode when hot. Always allow a hot lamp to cool for at least 5 minutes before removing it from the fixture and wear safety goggles to protect your eyes.
- Page 7 P r e p a r e t h e p o w e r c a b l e The SynchroZap QX250 has a 3-pin IEC power inlet. To use the supplied power cable, you must install a grounding-type cord cap that fits your supply. Following the manufacturer’s instructions, connect the yellow/green wire to the ground (earth) pin, the blue wire to the neutral pin, and the brown wire to the live pin.
- Page 8 Verify that the structure can support at least 10 times the weight of all installed fixtures, clamps, cables, auxiliary equipment, etc. If hanging the fixture with a rigging clamp, verify that the clamp is undam- aged and is designed for the fixture’s weight. Bolt the clamp securely to the bracket with a grade 8.8 (minimum) M12 bolt and lock nut, or as rec- ommended by the clamp manufacturer, through the clamp hole in the mounting bracket.
- Page 9 S e l e c t D M X m o d e The SynchroZap QX250 has 2 DMX modes: a 6-channel mode that provides full control of all effects and a 1-channel mode in which the SynchroZap performs a random sequence at 3 trigger rates.
- Page 10 For independent control, each fixture must have its own address as in example 1. If inde- pendent control is not required, 2 or more SynchroZaps may share the same address: they will receive the same instructions and behave identically. In example 2, units 1 and 2 will behave the same, as will units 3 and 4.

A d j u s t i n g t h e l a m p The SynchroZap QX250 lamp assembly is adjusted at the factory. Due to differences between lamps, however, fine adjustment may be improve performance. - Page 15 Wait for the lamp to reach full brightness. Position the fixture so the light shines on a flat, white surface. If there is an off-center “hot spot,” the lamp is not centered in the reflec- tor. Pull the hot spot into the center of the field with small adjustments of one or more of the lamp-adjustment screws.
