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
withtheprotectivecoversremoved,thes e 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.
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.

2. Preparation and Installation
2.1 Mounting
The POWER SPOT 250™ is fully operational in two different mounting positions,
hanging upside from a ceiling or set on a flat level surface. To avoid internal
damage to the unit, never mount the unit on its side as illustrated below. Be sure
this fixture is kept at least 0.5m away from any flammable materials (decoration
etc.). Install a safety cable that can hold at least 10 times the weight of the fixture.
Never use the carrying handles for secondary attachment.
Refer to regulations BGV C1 (formerly VBG 70) and DIN VDE
0711-217 for proper installation in Europe
To ensure proper installation, only qualified staff should attempt
installation.
2.1.1 Clamps
The POWER SPOT 250™ has been designed to hold multiple clamps to the
bottom of the unit in several different orientations. Always use an appropriately
rated clamp to mount this unit to truss. Refer to the printed instructions on the
bottom of the fixture for proper clamp installation.

Power Spot 250™
©Elation Professionals® Los Angeles, Ca. - wwww.ElationLighting.com - Page 12
2.1.2 Mounting plate
For a permanent installation of the POWER SPOT 250™ in a non-truss
installation you may use the optional mounting plate (secured to the bottom of
the fixture) to secure the fixture to a ceiling. The plate accepts four M6x20
screws.
2.2 Secure the POWER SPOT 250™
Regardless of the rigging option you choose for your POWER SPOT 250™ 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.

2.3 Connections
2.3.1 Power supply
115v ~ 50/60Hz AC (America’s),
Connected load 500W <=> 4.4 A (blind current compensation)
or 230V ~ 50Hz AC (EU),
Connected load 500W <=> 2.2 A (blind current compensation)
Operating voltage is pre-selected at the factory and is not user selectable.
Because line voltage may vary from venue to venue, you should be sure your
fixture voltage matches that of the outlet. The voltage requirements for the
fixture are clearly printed on the side panel near the power cord.
2.3.2 DMX-512
3-Pin XLR Input/Output. [+] = Pin 3 / [-] = Pin 2 / [Ground] = Pin 1
2.4 DMX-512: DMX is short for Digital Multiplex. This is a universal protocol used by
most lighting and controller manufactures as a form of communication between
intelligent fixtures and controllers. A DMX controller sends DMX data instructions
from the controller to the fixture. DMX data is sent out as serial data that travels from
fixture to fixture via the DATA “IN” and DATA “OUT” XLR terminals located on all DMX
fixtures (most controllers only have a DATA “OUT” terminals). DMX Linking: DMX is a
language allowing all makes and models of different manufactures to be linked
together and operate from a single controller, as long as all fixtures and the
controller are DMX compliant. To ensure proper DMX data transmission, when
using several DMX fixtures try to use the shortest cable path possible. The order in
which fixtures are connected in a DMX line does not influence the DMX addressing.
For example; a fixture assigned a DMX address of 1 may be placed anywhere in a
DMX line, at the beginning, at the end, or anywhere in the middle. Therefore, the first
fixture controlled by the controller could be the last fixture in the chain. When a fixture
is assigned a DMX address of 1, the DMX controller knows to send DATA assigned
to address 1 to that fixture, no matter where it is located in the DMX chain.
2.5 Data Cable (DMX Cable) Requirements (For DMX and Master/Slave Operation):
The POWER SPOT 250™ can be controlled via DMX-512 protocol. The POWER
SPOT 250™ is a 15 channel DMX fixture. The DMX address is set electronically

Power Spot 250™
©Elation Professionals® Los Angeles, Ca. - wwww.ElationLighting.com - Page 14
using the controls on the side panel of the fixture. Your fixture and your DMX
controller require a standard 3-pin XLR connector for data input and data output
(Figure Below). If you are making your own cables, be sure to use standard two
conductor shielded cable (This cable may be purchased at almost all professional
sound and lighting stores). Your cables should be made with a male and female
XLR connector on either end of the cable. Also remember that DMX cable must be
daisychained and can not be split.
2.6 Notice: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.
2.7 Special Note: Line Termination.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 which 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 (ADJ part number Z-DMX/T) will decrease the possibilities of erratic
behavior.

2.8 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 chart below details a proper cable conversion.
2.9 Fuse Requirements
The POWER SPOT 250’s electronic system is protected by a 5x20 mm external fuse.
115V / T 6.3A (US model) or 230V / T 3.15A (EU model).
The fuse requirements are clearly printed on the side of the fixture.
WARNING:
•Always disconnect main power before changing the fuse!
•Always replace with the exact same type fuse unless otherwise specified by
an authorized Elation®service technician. Replacing with anything other than
the specified part can severely damage your fixture and will void your
manufactures warranty.
2.10 Transportation and Handling
The POWER SPOT 250™comes with two carrying handles built into the base. Always
transport the fixture by these handles. Never lift or carry the POWER SPOT 250™ by
the yoke (head assembly) this can seriously damage the unit.

3. Fixture Menu
The control panel located on the side of the fixture allows you to
access the main menu and make all necessary adjustments to the
POWER SPOT 250™. During normal operation, tapping the “MODE” key
once will access the fixture’s main menu. Once in the main menu you
