Introduction
The ELP CL from Martin® is an ellipsoidal/profile lighting fixture with a 260W red, green, blue,
amber & lime LED engine that produces a sharp gobo projection with a flat field
The fixture provides a calibrated color mixing system that offers 2 modes of operation:
• high quality mode with a CRI of 90 and CCT of 5500 K at 5900 lumens output
• high performance mode with a CRI of 85 and CCT of 6000 K at 6900 lumens output.
The fixture has 16-bit dimming with 4 selectable curves. It includes innovative features including a
gear-based fine focus system which is still compatible with industry standard accessories. The
fixture is ideal for theatre, gobo projection, art lighting, architectural lighting and key lighting
applications.
The Martin® ELP CL can be controlled using any DMX-compliant controller and can be remotely
configured by RDM. It also features stand-alone operation with capacity for up to 20 scenes.
The fixture is supplied with this user manual, a 1.5 m (4.9 ft.) power cable ready for a local power
plug (not included) and a yoke for attachment of suitable user-supplied rigging clamps.
Before using the product for the first time
1. Read ‘Safety information’ on page 5 before installing, operating or servicing the fixture.
2. Unpack and ensure that there is no transportation damage before using the fixture. Do not
attempt to operate a damaged fixture.
3. Before operating, ensure that the voltage and frequency of the power supply match the power
requirements of the fixture.
4. If the fixture is not going to be hard-wired to a mains supply, install a local power plug (not
supplied) on the end of the supplied power cable.
5. If fixtures are exposed to a sudden temperature change, give them time to warm or cool to the
ambient temperature before applying power. This will help avoid damage due to condensation.
6. Check the support pages on the Martin® website at www.martin.com for the most recent user
documentation and technical information about the fixture. Martin® user manual revisions are
identified by the revision letter at the bottom of the inside cover.

Physical installation
Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 5 before installing the fixture.
Warning! The safety and suitability of lifting equipment, installation location,
anchoring method, mounting hardware and electrical installation are the
responsibility of the installer. All local safety regulations and legal requirements
must be observed when installing and connecting the ELP Profile fixture.
Installation must be carried out by qualified professionals only.
Contact your Martin supplier for assistance if you have any questions about how to install this
product safely.
Fixture location
The ELP Profile fixture is intended for interior use only. Do not install outside or in damp or humid
locations. The fixture requires free and unobstructed airflow around it to ensure adequate cooling.
Observe the following limitations in selecting a location:
• Respect the limitations listed under Safety information’ on page 5.
• Do not locate the fixture in an unventilated space.
Mounting the fixture
Warning! All fasteners used to mount ELP Profile fixtures must be strong enough
to hold the fixture safely. Install a washer directly under the head of each fastener
when anchoring the mounting bracket to the installation surface.
Fastening the fixture to a flat surface
The fixture can be fastened to a hard, fixed, flat surface in any orientation. Ensure that the surface
and all fasteners used can support at least 10 times the weight of all fixtures and equipment they
will support.
Fasten the fixture securely. Do not free stand on a surface where it may fall over. If you install the
fixture in a location where it may cause injury or damage if it falls, secure it as directed below with
a securely anchored safety cable that will hold the fixture if the primary fastening method fails.
Mounting the fixture on a truss
The fixture can be clamped to a truss or similar rigging structure in any
orientation. Use a suitable rigging clamp such as a G-clamp or a half-coupler
clamp (see illustration on right) fastened to the mounting yoke.
To clamp the fixture to a truss:
1. Check that the rigging structure can support at least 10 times the weight
of all fixtures and equipment to be installed on it.
2. Block access under the work area.
3. Bolt a rigging clamp securely to the mounting yoke. The bolts used must be M12, grade 8.8
steel minimum, and fastened with a self-locking nut.
4. Working from a stable platform, mount the fixture on the truss and fasten the rigging clamp
onto the truss.
5. Secure the fixture with a safety cable through the rear safety eye as shown below.
Martin ELP CL Profile user guide 11
Securing with a safety cable
Secure the fixture with a safety cable (or other secondary attachment) that is approved for the
weight of the fixture so that the safety cable will hold the fixture if the primary attachment fails.
Loop the safety cable through the attachment eye at the rear of the fixture (see illustration above)
and around a secure anchoring point.
If a safety cable attachment point becomes damaged or deformed, do not use the fixture. Return it
to a Martin Service Centre for repair.
