Status LEDs
The status LEDs help determine where any problems with your Studio Spot 250 or
Studio Color 250 fixture may be originating. See
Table 8-2 for a description of the five
status LEDs.
*Note: If you shut down the lamp using a remote shutdown command, the
lamp and the Lamp LED will shut off. However, if you have bad data
cables, no data cables/controller connected to the fixture, or the
controller is off, the lamp and its LED will also be off. If correcting
these problems does not turn the lamp ON, see the next section.
**Note: Neither the Transmit nor the Receive LED will be ON until you have
connected the fixture to a DMX 512-compatible controller using XLR
data-grade cabling. If these LEDs remain OFF even though you have
connected the fixture to a controller and are sending DMX 512
commands to the fixture, see the next section.
