Unpacking Instructions
Immediately upon receiving a fixture, carefully unpack the carton, check the contents to ensure that
all parts are present, and have been received in good condition. Notify the shipper immediately and
retain packing material for inspection if any parts appear damaged from shipping or the carton itself
shows signs of mishandling. Save the carton and all packing materials. In the event that a fixture
must be returned to the factory, it is important that the fixture be returned in the original factory box
and packing.
AC Power
To determine the power requirements for a particular fixture, see the label affixed to the back plate of
the fixture or refer to the fixture’s specifications chart. A fixture’s listed current rating is its average
current draw under normal conditions. All fixtures must be powered directly off a switched circuit and
cannot be run off a rheostat (variable resistor) or
dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel
is used solely for a 0% to 100% switch. Before applying
power to a fixture, check that the source voltage
matches the fixture’s requirement. Check the fixture or
device carefully to make sure that if a voltage selection
switch exists that it is set to the correct line voltage you
will use.

Warning! Verify that the voltage select switch on your unit matches the line voltage applied,
and that the frequency select switch on your unit matches the frequency of the
power in your region. Also verify that you are using the correct fuse value for your
operating voltage. All fixtures must be connected to circuits with a suitable Earth
Ground. Damage to your fixture may occur if these instructions are not followed.

3. SETUP
Lamp
You will need to install a lamp prior to the initial operation of the fixture. A 250W MSD lamp is
included.
Warning! When replacing the lamp, please wait 15 minutes after powering down to allow the
unit to cool down! Always disconnect from main power prior to lamp replacement.
Do not touch the envelope (glass area) of the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp
with alcohol and wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation.
LAMP INSTALLATION
1. Remove screws labeled (S1) and pull out lamp socket
plate.
A
BC
S1
S2
2. If replacing the lamp, remove old lamp first.
3. Holding the new lamp by its base, align the pins on the
lamp with the small hole in the socket and insert the
lamp squarely until the retaining clips on the lamp s
secure the lamp tightly. ocket
4. Clean the glass/envelope of the bulb with an alcohol
wipe or equivalent.
5. Holding the lamp socket plate, insert the tip of the lamp
into the fixture with extreme care. Navigate the lamp all
the way until it reaches the reflector and the lamp base
plate touches the bottom plate of the fixture.
6. Align the screw holes and fasten the screws back onto
the lamp socket plate.
7. Turn the fixture on and adjust the lamp alignment
screws (S2) until the brightest most even area of the
beam is in the center of your spot. It may be necessary
for you to use a controller in order to command the
fixture to display a white beam on a flat surface with no
colors.
Maximizing the life of your lamp
To ensure the longest and most efficient use of the lamp always wait
between 10 and 15 minutes before re-applying power after a shutdown.
Failure to do so could result in premature aging of the lamp and failure to the
electronics that drive it.
Never turn off the power to the unit while the lamp is striking. Always wait 15
minutes after powering on the fixture before powering down. Turning off the lamp
during striking may permanently damage the lamp.
Q-Spot 200 User Manual 8 9/5/2007 2:59 PM

LAMP ALIGNMENT HOW-TO
Often, after a new installation of a lamp, you will find
that there is an uneven field of light or what is referred
to as a hot spot. This is due to the most intense point
of the lamp source not being positioned optimally
within the reflector.
Lamp Alignment Screws
A
BC
There are three lamp alignment screws provided at the
base of the projector head. Turning these screws allow
you to optimize the projection quality of the spot as
well as the overall intensity of the beam.
1. Project a white spot against any flat surface.
Preferably the surface should be white or pastel in
color.
2. Turning the lamp alignment screws, try to position
the hot spot in the center of the beam as best as
possible. This could require many attempts on your
part.
3. Once the hot spot is in the center of the spot, do
your best to turn all screws equally as to affect
movement up or down within the reflector.
4. As you move in and out of optimum lamp focus,
you will see the hot spot either gets wider or
narrower. The goal is to either totally diminish the
hot spot by having it widen and spread across the
entire spot or moving the hot spot so that it covers
as much of the beam spot area as possible.
Disconnect the power cord before replacing a fuse and always
replace with the same type fuse.
Fuse Replacement
The fuse is located
inside this
compartment.
Remove using a flat
head screwdriver.
With a flat head screwdriver wedge the fuse holder out of its housing. Remove the damaged fuse
from its holder and replace with exact same type fuse. Insert the fuse holder back in its place and
reconnect power.

Replacing Gobos
1) Remove the four screws indicated in

3) Remove the retaining spring from the
gobo (figure B).
4) Remove the existing gobo, and
replace with a new gobo.
5) Replace the retaining spring.
6) If desired, add three small dabs of
high-temperature silicone glue to the
retaining spring.
7) Repeat steps 4-6 as many times as
necessary to replace all desired
gobos.
8) Replace the bottom cover and
retighten the four screws removed in
step 1.
Fixture Linking
You will need a serial data link to run light shows of one or more fixtures using a DMX-512 controller
or to run synchronized shows on two or more fixtures set to a master/slave operating mode. The
combined number of channels required by all the fixtures on a serial data link determines the number
of fixtures the data link can support.
Important: Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy chained in one single line. To comply with the EIA-485
standard no more than 32 devices should be connected on one data link. Connecting more than 32
fixtures on one serial data link without the use of a DMX optically-isolated splitter may result in
deterioration of the digital DMX signal.
Maximum recommended serial data link distance: 500 meters (1640 ft.)
Maximum recommended number of fixtures on a serial data link: 32 fixtures
Data Cabling
To link fixtures together you must obtain data cables. You can purchase CHAUVET-certified DMX
cables directly from a dealer/distributor or construct your own cable. If you choose to create your own
cable please use data-grade cables that can carry a high quality signal and are less prone to
electromagnetic interference.
Q-Spot 200 User Manual 10 9/5/2007 2:59 PM

DMX DATA CABLE
Use a Belden© 9841 or equivalent cable which meets the specifications for EIA RS-485 applications.
Standard microphone cables cannot transmit DMX data reliably over long distances. The cable will
have the following characteristics:
2-conductor twisted pair plus a shield
Maximum capacitance between conductors – 30 pF/ft.
Maximum capacitance between conductor and shield – 55 pF/ft.
Maximum resistance of 20 ohms / 1000 ft.
Nominal impedance 100 – 140 ohms
CABLE CONNECTORS
Cabling must have a male XLR connector on one end and a female XLR connector on the other end.

Often, the setup for Master-Slave
and Standalone operation requires
that the first fixture in the chain be
initialized for this purpose via either
settings in the control panel or DIP-
switches. Secondarily, the fixtures
that follow may also require a slave
setting. Please consult the
“Operating Instructions” section in
this manual for complete instructions
for this type of setup and
configuration.

Mounting
ORIENTATION
This fixture may be mounted in any position provided there is adequate room for ventilation.
RIGGING
Hanging Clamp
It is important never to obstruct the fan or vents pathway. Mount the
fixture using, a suitable “C” or “O” type clamp. Adjust the angle of the
fixture by loosening both knobs and tilting the fixture. After finding the
desired position, retighten both knobs.
•When selecting installation location, take into consideration lamp
replacement access and routine maintenance.
•Safety cables should always be used. Note!
Clamp is sold separatel
•Never mount in places where the fixture will be exposed to rain, high
humidity, extreme temperature changes or restricted ventilation.
