Fusion Scan 250™  

 

         Operating Instructions 

CAUTION IMPORTANT! When installing this projector, make sure 

that it is  mounted  in a  manner  that prevents  the  audience  from 

looking  directly  into  the  beam,  and  the  beam  from  striking  the 

audience.

For  best  results  use  fog  or  special  effects  smoke  to  enhance  the 
beams  projections.  The  Fusion  Scan  250™  comes  with  a  protective 
transportation  cover.    Be  sure  to  remove  it  before  attempting  any 
operation!

Stand Alone, Sound Active Mode:

1.   To operate as a stand alone, sound active unit, set dipswitch #10  
 

into the ‘On” position.

2.  Adjust the sensitivity knob on the bottom of the unit so the unit  
 

will react to sound.

3.  The Fusion Scan 250™ will now react to the bass sound of music  
 

via  the internal microphone.

Master-Slave Operation (Sound Active):

This function will allow you to link units together to run a master/slave  
configuration. The units will be sound activated. In Master-Slave oper-
ation one unit will act as the controlling unit and the others will react 
to the controlling units programs. Any unit can act as a Master or as a 
Slave.
1.   Daisy chain your units via the XLR connector on the bottom    
    of the units.
2.   Use standard XLR microphone cables to link your units together.   
    Remember that the Male XLR connector is the input and the    
    Female XLR connector is the output.
3.  The first unit in the chain (master) will use the female XLR connec- 
 

tor only - The last unit in the chain will use the male XLR connec 

 

tor only.

4.  Please follow chart on page 13 for dipswitch settings, or to run a 
 

 synchronized light show set all the dipswitches on the slave fix- 

 

tures to the ‘off’ position, and on the master unit set dipswitch  

 

#10 to the “on” postion. All fixtures will now run in the same exact

 

pattern. 

Note: Only one fixture may use the master units dipswitch settings.
5.  After all the units settings have been set and are plugged in,    
 

adjust the sensitivity knob on the bottom of the master unit to

make them react to sound. 

 

7.   You can also use the optional MINI/C Remote Control. If you want  
    to use the optional remote control, connect the MINI/C controller  
    to the first fixture in the line (master).  
Note:  The  remote  control  only  operates  in  Stand-Alone  and  Master/
Slave modes. If the remote is connected in DMX mode it will not func-
tion.  If  the  units  do  not  receive  an  active  DMX  signal,  the  units  will 
automatically react to sound in the Master/Slave mode. 

DMX Mode:

This  fixture  will  react  with  DMX  operation.  For  best  results  use  only 
one  motor  function  for  each  scene  (or  step),  when  programming 
scenes into a DMX controller. This will give you faster mirror and fast-
er gobo/color changes.  For Example:
 

A.  With the DMX controller move the mirror up then program the   

 

step.

 

B.  Move the mirror down then program that step.

 

C.  Change the gobo/color wheel then program that step.

 

D.  Continue this pattern to achieve best results.

1.   Operating through a DMX controller gives the user freedom to  
 

create his/her own programs tailored to their own individual    

 

needs. This function also allows you to use your fixtures as spots.

2.  This operation will allow you to control each individual fixtures  
 

traits with a standard DMX 512 controller such as the Elation

®

   

 

Show Designer™ or the Elation

®

 DMX Operator.™ 

3.  The Fusion Scan 250™ uses five DMX channels to operate;    
 

Channel 1 is Pan, channel 2 is Tilt, channel 3 is Color, channel 4  

      Gobos, and channel 5 controls the Green Laser.
4.  To run your fixture in DMX mode, plug in the fixture via the XLR  
 

connections to any standard DMX controller. Set dipswitch #1 to  

 

the on position - Follow the set-up specifications that come with  

 

the controller.
