*Note: Fixture shutdown allows you to remotely deactivate the fixture. When
a fixture is shut down, the lamp is extinguished, power to the motors is
disabled, and the LED display is turned off. If a fixture is in shutdown
mode, you must home the fixture to bring it back into operation.
Updating Software
Updating Studio Spot 250 or Studio Color 250 software is fast and easy. The latest
versions of software are provided on the High End Systems web site, and are also
available through High End Systems customer service (see
“Contacting High End
Systems” on page ii).
Uploading Software to the Fixture
There are three ways to upload new software to your Studio Spot 250 or Studio Color
250 fixtures:
1. Attach a High End Systems Upload Dongle to your computer and upload the
software to your Studio Spot 250 or Studio Color 250 fixture.
To use a High End Systems Upload Dongle, you will need a 386-based (or
faster) computer, MS DOS
®
version 3.3 (or later), and one MB of free disk
space. To obtain an Upload Dongle (with installation and operation
instructions), contact your High End Systems dealer/distributor (see
“Contacting High End Systems” on page ii).
2. Crossload software from one fixture that contains the new software to all other
Studio Spot 250 or Studio Color 250 fixtures on the link.
Studio Spot 250 fixtures and Studio Color 250 fixtures use the same software.
Therefore, if you have a Studio Spot 250 or Studio Color 250 fixture with
newer software, you can crossload its software to all other Studio Spot 250
