INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
a) Installing or replacing the lamp  
CAUTION  
Only install the lamp with the device unplugged from the mains.  
CAUTION  
The lamp has to be replaced when it is damaged or deformed.  
Before replacing the lamp let the lamp cool down, because during operation, the lamp can  
reach very high temperature.  
During the installation of halogen lamps do not touch the glass bulbs bare handed. Always use a cloth  
to handle the lamps during insertion and removal.  
Do not install lamps with a higher wattage. They generate higher temperatures than which the device  
was designed for.  
For the installation, you need one: Philips MSD250/2 GY9.5 lamp  
Procedures:  
1) Unscrew the 2 screws (A,B)on the bottom of the housing, holding the plate where the lamp is  
underneath. Carefully remove the metal plate.

Please remember the lamp is not a hot-restrike type, you must wait for approximately 15 minutes after  
having turned off the lamp before you can turn it back on again.  
CAUTION  
Do not operate this device with open cover  
b) Mounting the device  
CAUTION  
Please consider the EN 60598-2-17 and the other respective national norms during the  
installation. The installation must only be carried out by a qualified person.  
The installation of the effect 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 safety  
cable.  
Never stand directly below the device when mounting, removing or servicing the fixture.  
The operator has to make sure the safety relating and machine technical installations are approved by  
an expert before taking the device into operation for the first time.  
These installations have to be approved by a skilled person once a year.  
5
DESIGN WASH 250 USER MANUAL V1.0 NR  
CAUTION  
Before taking into operation for the first time,  
the installation has to be approved by an expert.  
Cautions:  
The effect should be installed outside areas where persons may reach it, walk by or be seated.  
CAUTION  
When installing the device, make sure there is no highly  
inflammable material within a distance of min. 0,5m  
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience, including amongst others calculating  
working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all  
installation material and the device. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the  
installation yourself. Improper installation can result in bodily injury.  
CAUTION  
The electric connection must only be carried out by a qualified electrician.  
Before mounting make sure that the installation area can hold a minimum point load of 10 times the  
device’s weight.  
Connect the fixture to the mains with the power plug.

DESIGN WASH 250 USER MANUAL V1.0 NR  
installation via the Omega holders  
Screw one clamp each via a M12 screw and nut onto the Omega holders.  
Insert the quick-lock fasteners of the first Omega holder into the respective holes on the bottom of the device.  
Tighten the quick-lock fasteners fully clockwise. Install the second Omega holder.  
Pull the safety-rope through the holes on the bottom of the base and over the trussing system or a safe fixation  
spot. Insert the end in the carabine and tighten the safety screw.  
DMX-512 control connection  
Connect the provided XLR cable to the female 3-pin XLR output of your controller and the other side  
to the male 3-pin XLR input of the moving head. You can chain multiple  
Moving head together through serial linking. The cable needed should be two core, screened cable  
with XLR input and output connectors. Please refer to the diagram below.  
7
DESIGN WASH 250 USER MANUAL V1.0 NR  
DMX-512 connection with DMX terminator  
For installations where the DMX cable has to run a long distance or is in an electrically noisy  
environment, such as in a discotheque, it is recommended to use a DMX terminator. This helps in  
preventing corruption of the digital control signal by electrical noise. The DMX terminator is simply  
an XLR plug with a 120 resistor connected between pins 2 and 3,which is then plugged into the  
output XLR socket of the last fixture in the chain. Please see illustrations below.  
Address 33  
address 17  
address 1  
Projector DMX start address selection  
All fixtures should be given a DMX starting address when using a DMX signal, so that the correct  
fixture responds to the correct control signals. This digital starting address is the channel number from  
which the fixture starts to “listen” to the digital control information sent out from the DMX controller.  
The allocation of this starting address is achieved by setting the correct number on the display located  
on the base of the device.  
You can set the same starting address for all fixtures or a group of fixtures, or make different address  
for each fixture individually.  
If you set the same address, all the units will start to “listen” to the same control signal from the same  
channel number. In other words, changing the settings of one channel will affect all the fixtures  
simultaneously.  
8
DESIGN WASH 250 USER MANUAL V1.0 NR  
If you set a different address, each unit will start to “listen” to the channel number you have set, based  
on the quantity of control channels of the unit. That means changing the settings of one channel will  
affect only the selected fixture.  
In the case of the spot head, which is a 16 channel fixture, you should set the starting address of the first  
unit to 1, the second unit to 17 (16+ 1), the third to 33 (17 + 16), and so on.  
Note:  
The modes of DMX 512 data and lamp are shown via the display:  
. .

1. After switching on, the device will automatically detect whether DMX 512 data is received or not. If the data is  
received, the the display will show "A.001" with the actually set address. If there is no data received at the  
DMX-input, the display will flash "A001" with the 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 device.  
- the controller is switched off or defective, if the cable or connector is defective or the signal wires are swap in the  
input connector.  
It’s necessary to insert the XLR termination plug (with 120 Ohm) in the last lighting in the link in order to ensure  
proper transmission on the DMX data link.  
2. If the lamp is on, the the display will show "A00.1" with the actually set address. If the lamp is off, the the display  
will show "A001" with the actually set address.  
Control Board  
The Control Board offers several features: you can simply set the starting address, switch on and off the lamp, run the  
pre-programmed program or make a reset.  
The main menu is accessed by pressing the Mode/esc-button until the display starts flashing. Browse through the  
menu by pressing the Up-button or Down-button. Press the Enter-button in order to select the desired menu. You can  
change the selection by pressing the Up-button or Down-button. Confirm every selection by pressing the

ERROR MESSAGE  
When you turn on the fixture, it will make a reset first. The display may show “XXer” while there are problems with  
one or more channels. “XX” stands for channel 1,5,6,8,9 who has the testing sensor for positioning .  
For example, when the display shows “01Er”, it means there is some error in channel 1. If there are some errors on  
channel 1, channel 5, channel 6 at the same time, you may see the error message “01Er”, “05Er”,”06Er” flash  
repeated for 5 times, and then the fixture will generate a reset signal, all the stepper reset. If the fixture remain error  
message after performing reset more than 3 times, it will detect whether the fixture has more than 3 errors. If the  
fixture has more than 3 errors (including 3 errors), all the channels can not work properly; but if the fixture has less  
than 3 errors, only the channels which have errors can not work properly, others can work as usual.  
01Er:  
(Color-wheel 1 error) This message will appear after the reset of the fixture if the magnetic-indexing circuit  
malfunctions (sensor failed or magnet missing) or the stepping-motor is defective (or its drive circuit on the main  
PCB). The color wheel is not located in the default position after the reset.  
05Er:  
(PAN-yoke movement error) This message will appear after the reset of the fixture if the yoke’s magnetic-indexing  
circuit malfunction (sensor failed or magnet missing) or the stepping-motor is defective ( or its driving IC on the main  
PCB). The yoke is not located in the default position after the reset.  
06Er:  
(TILT-head movement error) This message will appear after the reset of the fixture if the head’s magnetic-indexing  
circuit malfunctions (sensor failed or magnet missing) or the stepping-motor is defective (or its driving IC on the  
main PCB). The head is not located in the default position after the reset.  
08Er:  
(Effect-wheel error) This message will appear after the reset of the fixture and if the magnetic-indexing circuit  
malfunctions (sensor failed or magnet missing) or the stepping-motor is defective (or its driver circuit on the main  
PCB). The rotating gobo is not located in the default position after the reset.  
09Er:  
(Zoom error) This message will appear after the reset of the fixture and if the magnetic-indexing circuit malfunctions  
(sensor failed or magnet missing) or the stepping-motor is defective (or its driver circuit on the main PCB). The zoom  
is not located in the default position after the reset.
