3. Gently remove the old lamp by grasping the ceramic base and turning it
counter-clockwise until it is loose.
4. Insert the new lamp securely, locking the lamp by turning it clockwise until it locks in
place. Before reassembling the unit, be sure the new lamp is securely seated in the
lamp socket. Always be sure to only use specified lamp types! (MSR 300/2 FastFit).
5. Once the lamp has been inserted and secured into the socket, follow the lamp
optimization instructions outlined below, then lock the lamp cover back in to place by
turning the ¼” turn locking screws clockwise.

Lamp Optimization
The lamp orientation and optimization must be adjusted after every lamp change. This
procedure centers the lamp in the reflector. Proper optimization will increase lamp life and
ensure a bright crisp output. Improper optimization may add a yellow tint to the lamp output
and reduce intensity. The minimum deviation amount is 1.0mm. Running the fixture within a
lower deviation can cause damage to the lamp and/or lens.
The Design Spot 300E Pro™ lamp holder is aligned at the factory. However, due to slight
imperfections in all lamps, fine adjustments will improve light performance. Please follow the
procedure below for proper lamp optimization:
1. Using a DMX controller or the control panel on the unit, strike the lamp and focus the
light on a flat surface (beam open, white, no gobo, no effect).
2. Center the hot-spot (the brightest part of the beam) using the 3 adjustment screws
located under the lamp cover labeled A, B, and C as illustrated on the next page. Turn
one screw at a time to drag the hot-spot diagonally across the projected image. If you
cannot detect a hot-spot, adjust the lamp until the light is even.
