Surface mounting
max
13mm
/
½"
To mount the Mania EFX500/600 on a
surface, you will need four grade 8.8
(minimum) 8mm diameter, 13mm head hex
screwbolts (or similar type fasteners of the
same grade and size) and an eyebolt for the
safety cable.
Installing the mounting plate
separately
Surface mounting is easiest if you detach
the mounting plate from the fixture, bolt the
mounting plate to the surface, and then reattach the fixture. If you choose
this method, access for reattachment and adjustment can be easier if you
remove the swivel locks and replace them with two M8 hexagonal lock
nuts, P/N 08132701. Install an eyebolt and safety attachment once the
fixture is mounted.
Installing the fixture and mounting plate as a unit
If you prefer to install the fixture and mounting plate without separating
them:
1. Using the inside back cover of this manual as a guide, drill three holes
in the positions marked A.
2. Screw three grade
8.8 (minimum)
8mm diameter,
13mm head hex
screwbolts or bolts
into the holes at A,
but do not tighten
them fully –allow
enough clearance
between the bolt
head and surface
for the 3mm thick
mounting plate.
3. Fold the mounting
plate so that it lies flat against the back of the fixture and tighten the
swivel locks. For easier access for adjustment, it is possible to remove
the swivel locks and replace them with two M8 hexagonal lock nuts,
P/N 08132701).

4. Hold the fixture up to the surface so that the screwbolt heads pass
through the centers of the keyholes A in the mounting plate, and slide
the fixture to engage the screwbolt heads in the mounting plate.
5. Using one of the remaining holes in the mounting plate as a guide,
mark a position for a fourth hole to accept a screwbolt that will lock the
fixture in place.
6. Remove the fixture from the surface, drill the fourth hole and replace
the fixture on the surface as described in point 4 above. Screw the
fourth screwbolt through the mounting plate into the surface to lock the
fixture in place, using a washer on the screwbolt if necessary.
7. Install an eyebolt and safety attachment once the fixture is mounted.
Overhead mounting
To hang the Mania EFX on an overhead structure:
1. If using a rigging clamp, ensure that the clamp is undamaged and can
bear at least 10 times the fixture’s weight. Bolt the clamp securely to
the fixture’s mounting plate with a grade 8.8 (minimum) M12 bolt and
lock nut through one of the 13 mm holes provided, or as recommended
by the clamp manufacturer. The clamp must be attached centrally in
the mounting plate to distribute the load evenly.
2. Working from a stable
platform, clamp or fasten the
fixture to the structure.
3. Install a safety cable that can
hold at least 10 times the
weight of the fixture.
4. Loosen the swivel locks, tilt
the fixture to the desired
angle, and retighten.
Important! Check to make sure that the mirror drum cable does not rub
on the mounting plate. If it does, reverse the mounting plate
(see illustration).
Creating a data link for DMX and
synchronized operation
You need a serial data link to:
• run light shows on one or more fixtures using a DMX controller, or
• run synchronized light shows on two or more fixtures (master/slave
operation).
Installation 11
Page 12
Fixtures on a serial data link must be daisy-chained in one single line,
maximum 500 meters (1640 ft.) long, with maximum 32 fixtures. If you
wish to exceed 32 fixtures or 500 meters, or to split the link into branches,
use an optically isolated amplifier-splitter such as the Martin RS-485 OptoSplitter (P/N 90758060).
Reliable data connection requires suitable cable. Standard microphone
cable cannot transmit DMX data reliably over long runs. For best results,
use cable with at least one twisted pair specifically designed for RS-485
applications. Your Martin dealer can supply suitable high quality cable in
various lengths.
Connecting the serial data link
The Mania EFX’s data connections are XLR type, wired with pin 1 to
ground, pin 2 to signal - (cold), and pin 3 to signal + (hot). This is the
standard configuration for DMX devices.
One or more adaptor cables may be required to connect the Mania EFX to
the controller and/or other types of fixture, because some devices may
have 5-pin XLR connectors, and others may have reversed signal polarity
(pin 2 hot and pin 3 cold). Connector polarity is normally specified on the
device or in the device’s user manual.

PERATION
Getting started
The Mania EFX500/600 is supplied in DMX mode with its DMX address
set to 1. If you want to operate the fixture without a DMX controller, you
need to set the fixture to music trig or auto trig mode before use (see
“Selecting DMX, music trig or auto trig operating modes” on page 15).
Powering on
Once the fixture is correctly and safely installed, power on at the fixture’s
power on/off switch. The fixture will start up and reset.
If the fixture resets successfully, the software version installed will appear
in the display. For example, if software version 1.00 is installed, the
message
100 should appear in the display.
Once the fixture has reset, the fixture will display either its DMX address,
901 (music trig mode) or 900 (auto trig mode).
If any other message is displayed, the fixture has detected an error (see
“Error messages” on page 21). If this occurs, switch off, wait a few
seconds and switch on again. If the error message appears again, consult
your Martin dealer.
Music trig, auto trig and DMX
modes
The Mania EFX has three main operating modes:
Music trig mode: In this mode, lighting effects are triggered by music
intensity. Multiple fixtures can be synchronized if one master fixture is set
to music trig mode and the other fixtures are set to DMX mode.
Auto trig mode: In this mode, the fixture runs a factory-set dynamic light
show that uses all the fixture’s effects in a random program. Multiple
fixtures can be synchronized if one master fixture is set to auto trig mode
and the other fixtures are set to DMX mode.
14 Mania EFX500 & EFX600 user manual
Page 15
DMX mode: In DMX mode, fixtures receive control instructions via the
serial data link. They will respond to control signals from a DMX controller
(or from another fixture set as master).
Selecting DMX, music trig or auto trig operating
modes
The Mania EFX is supplied set to DMX mode with DMX address set to 1.
If you intend to operate the fixture without a DMX controller, you need to
set the fixture to music trig or auto trig mode.

Setting DMX addresses
If you intend to use a DMX controller, you will need to set the DMX
address for each fixture. The DMX address, also known as the start
channel, is the first channel used to receive instructions from the
controller. It is set using the three addressing buttons on the Mania EFX’s
control panel.
For individual control, each fixture must be assigned its own DMX address
and control channels. Control channels must not overlap with those of
other fixtures. Fixtures of the same type with the same DMX address will
receive the same instructions and behave identically.
If a Mania EFX500 is set to DMX mode 2, it will use 9 channels. If you
give it DMX address 100, for example, it will use channels 100, 101, 102,
103, 104, 105, 106, 107 and 108. Channel 109 is available for the next
fixture.
The default factory-set DMX address is ‘1’.
To set a fixture’s DMX address:
1. Decide on suitable DMX addresses for all
the fixtures on the data link. 512 channels
are available in one DMX universe.

Macros: On the first extra channel, you can select one of twelve factoryset macros. Macros are pre-programmed dynamic shows that use all the
fixture’s effects.
Effect speed: On the second extra channel, you can either select the
speed at which effects change or select tracking. Selecting a speed allows
you to adjust fade times when using DMX controllers that do not feature
fade time programming (a fade time is the time taken for effects to change
18 Mania EFX500 & EFX600 user manual
Page 19
from one scene to the next). If you select tracking, the DMX controller
defines fade times.
Unsure about speed and tracking?
Set the fixture to tracking if you are using programmed fade times or
macros on your DMX controller. Select an effects speed if you are not
using programmed fade times or macros on your DMX controller.
However, if you are using fade times on your controller and have set the
fixture to tracking, but effects movement is rough and irregular, setting
fade times on your controller to zero and selecting an effects speed may
give smoother movement.
Effects movement is set to ‘tracking’ if the fixture is in DMX mode 1 and by
default.

Inverting pan and tilt for symmetrical action
You can create symmetrical action across multiple fixtures in
synchronized and DMX operation by inverting pan and/or tilt on some
fixtures so that they ‘mirror’ the action of others. When one fixture pans
left, for example, a fixture on the other side of the dance floor can bet set
to pan right.

ERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
The Mania EFX requires simple routine maintenance. The maintenance
schedule depends heavily on the operating environment. Please consult a
Martin service technician for recommendations.
Refer any service procedure not described here to a qualified technician.
Warning! Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for at
least 10 minutes before removing any cover.
Cleaning
Important! Excessive dust, grease, and smoke fluid buildup degrades
performance and causes overheating and damage to the
fixture that is not covered by the warranty. Check and, if
necessary, clean fixtures at regular intervals.
Cleaning the fan and air vents
To maintain adequate cooling, dust must be cleaned from the fan and air
vents periodically.
1. Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for at least 10
minutes.
2. Loosen the lamp cover release thumbscrew and slide and lift the lamp
cover out of the fixture housing. Let the cover hang on its safety strap.
3. Remove the four torx
screws holding the main
cover (see illustration on
right) and slide and lift
the cover out of the
housing. Let the cover
hang on its safety strap.
4. Remove dust and dirt
from the fan blades and
vent grills using a soft
brush, cotton swab,
vacuum, or compressed air.
5. Reinstall the main cover and lamp cover securely before reapplying
power.

careful not to strain any
wires, gently pull the lamp off its ceramic socket.
4. Hold the new lamp by its base (do not touch any other part of the lamp).
Push the lamp pins squarely into the ceramic socket.
5. If you touched the bulb, the reflector or any optical components, clean
them with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth wetted with isopropyl alcohol and
dry with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth or compressed air.
6. Replace the lamp and socket in the lampholder clip, ensuring that the
reflector sits flat against its plate and is held securely in place. When
installed correctly, the rim of the reflector locates under the heads of
two stop screws so that the reflector is held firmly between these
screws and the lampholder clip.
7. Close the lamp cover, checking that no wires are trapped, and retighten
the thumbscrew.

Replacing the main fuse
The Mania EFX500/600 uses a slow-blow fuse for protection against
current overload. An indication that the fuse may have blown is that when
power is applied and the lamp is switched on, no light is produced.
If the fuse blows repeatedly, there is probably a fault. Disconnect the
fixture from power and data and contact a Martin service technician.
Never bypass the fuse or replace it with one of another type or rating.
To replace the main fuse:
1. Disconnect the power cable.
2. Pry open the fuse holder next to the
power cable inlet with a flat-head
screwdriver and remove the fuse.
3. Replace the fuse with one of the
same type and rating. Fuse ratings
are listed on serial number labels and
under “Electrical” on page 37.
4. Replace the fuse holder before
reapplying power.
Firmware and hard boot uploads
It is possible to upload new firmware to the Mania EFX via the data IN
connector using, for example, an uploader such as the Martin MP-2
Uploader, or a PC using a Martin DABS interface device and suitable
software. The latest version of the Mania EFX firmware is available in the
Support area of the Martin website at http://www.martin.com
26 Mania EFX500 & EFX600 user manual
Page 27
If the Mania EFX will not accept normal firmware uploads, it can be forced
to accept an upload by starting it in hard boot mode. To start in hard boot
mode, hold both the [Mode] button and the [X100] button pressed in while
powering on the fixture. When the Mania EFX is in hard boot mode, the
data LED blinks.
If you are not sure how to carry out uploads, your Martin dealer will be
able to give advice or carry out the upload for you.
