Frequently Asked Questions - Performance Scan 250 American Audio
How do I connect the Performance Scan 250 to a DMX controller?
Use a standard 3-pin XLR DMX cable to connect the DMX IN of the fixture to your controller's DMX OUT. Set the DMX address on the fixture using the menu buttons. The fixture uses 16 channels.
What is the proper way to replace the lamp?
Disconnect power and let the fixture cool for at least 30 minutes. Open the lamp cover, remove the old lamp, and insert a new MSD 250W lamp without touching the glass. Reset the lamp timer in the menu.
How do I reset the fixture to factory defaults?
Press MENU, navigate to SETTINGS, select FACTORY RESET, and confirm. The fixture will reboot with default settings.
Why is the fixture not responding to DMX?
Check the DMX cable connection and ensure the fixture's DMX address matches the controller. Verify that the controller is transmitting on the correct universe. Try a different DMX cable or a terminator at the last fixture.
Can I use this fixture without a DMX controller?
Yes, the Performance Scan 250 has standalone modes including sound-active and auto-run. Select SOUND or AUTO from the main menu to operate without DMX.
How do I clean the lens and gobo wheel?
Turn off and unplug the fixture. Use a soft lint-free cloth slightly dampened with glass cleaner to wipe the front lens. For the gobo wheel, gently blow off dust or use a soft brush. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
What fuse rating does the fixture use?
The fuse is a 5 x 20mm, T5A 250V fuse. Always replace with the same type and rating.
