INTRODUCTION
Thank you for selecting the MAC 600 from Martin. This intelligent moving-head Fresnel color changer is fast, quiet, and reli­able. It delivers exceptionally bright light that instantly snaps or smoothly fades to virtually any color, at any intensity, any­where on stage.
About this manual
This manual covers the MAC 600 with magnetic ballast and the MAC 600 E with electronic ballast. “MAC 600/E” is used to refer to both models when describing common features or procedures.
This manual describes the features of software version 2.4. The latest MAC 600/E software and documentation are available from the Service and Support area of the Martin web site at http://www.martin.dk.
Safety precautions
This product is for professional use only. It is not for household use.
This product presents risks of lethal or severe injury due to fire and heat, electric shock, ultraviolet radiation, lamp explosion, and falls. Read this manual before powering or installing the fixture, follow the safety precautions listed below and observe all warnings in this manual and printed on the fixture. If you have questions about how to operate the fixture safely, please contact your Martin dealer or call the Martin 24-hour service hotline at +45 70 200 201.
To protect yourself and others from electric shock
Disconnect the fixture from AC power before removing or installing the lamp, fuses, or any part, and when not in use.
Always ground (earth) the fixture electrically.
Use only a source of AC power that complies with local building and electrical codes and has both overload and ground­fault protection.
Do not expose the fixture to rain or moisture.
Refer any service operation not described in this manual to a qualified technician.
To protect yourself and others from UV radiation and lamp explosion
Never operate the fixture with missing or damaged lenses and/or covers.
When replacing the lamp, allow the fixture to cool for at least 15 minutes before opening the fixture or removing the lamp. Protect your hands and eyes with gloves and safety glasses.
Do not stare directly into the light. Never look at an exposed lamp while it is lit.
Replace the lamp before usage exceeds the maximum service life, or if the lamp is defective or worn out.
To protect yourself and others from burns and fire
Never bypass the thermostatic switch or fuses. Always replace defective fuses with ones of the specified type and rating.
Keep all combustible materials (for example fabric, wood, paper) at least 1.0 meter (39 inches) away from the fixture. Keep flammable materials well away from the fixture.
Do not illuminate surfaces within 1.0 meter (39 inches) of the fixture.
Provide a minimum clearance of 0.1 meters (4 inches) around fans and air vents.
Never place filters or other materials over the lens.
Allow the fixture to cool for at least 5 minutes before handling.
Do not modify the fixture or install other than genuine Martin parts.
Do not operate the fixture if the ambient temperature (Ta) exceeds 40° C (104° F).
To protect yourself and others from injury due to falls
When suspending the fixture, verify that the structure can hold at least 10 times the weight of all installed devices.
Verify that all external covers and rigging hardware are securely fastened and use an approved means of secondary attachment such as a safety cable.
Block access below the work area whenever installing or removing the fixture.
Do not lift the fixture by its head.

SETUP
This section describes the simple steps required to prepare the MAC 600/E for operation.
Unpacking
The MAC 600/E package includes:
2 Fast-Lock Omega clamp brackets
5-meter XLR-XLR control cable
•Light snoot
•User manual
The packing material is carefully designed to protect the fixture during shipment - always use it or a custom MAC 500/600 flight case to transport the fixture.
Installing or changing the lamp
WARNING!
Disconnect the fixture from AC power before proceeding. Always wear safety gog-
gles to protect your eyes and allow a hot lamp to cool for at least 15 minutes
before removing it from the fixture.
The MAC 600/E works with the lamps listed on page 25. Installing any other lamp may damage the fixture. The lamp holder
is pre-adjusted at the factory; precise alignment may be necessary due to slight variations between lamps. The procedure is
described on page 17.
1. The MAC 600/E must be cool and isolated from AC power. Remove the 2 thumbscrews securing the lamp-socket assembly to the rear of the head. Pull out the lamp-socket assembly.
2. If changing the lamp, remove the old lamp from the socket.
3. Holding the new lamp by its ceramic base (do not touch the glass), insert it firmly and squarely into the
lamp socket.
4. Clean the glass bulb with the cloth supplied with the lamp, particularly if your fingers touch the glass. A clean, lint-free cloth wetted with alcohol may also be used.
5. Keep the lamp wire between the fins as you insert the lamp-socket assembly into the head. Turn the assembly counterclockwise to align the holes with the spacer nuts. Replace the thumbscrews and tighten them by hand.
6. Before striking the lamp, reset the RLAH and RLST counters under the TIME menu to track lamp hours and lamp strikes. See page 13.
Powering the fixture
Check voltage and frequency settings
The settings must match the local AC power supply. These settings are printed on the serial number label on the base. If the
settings do not match the local conditions, then the ballast and/or transformer must be rewired. See section 5 for details.

(neutral pan)
For protection from dangerous electric shock, the fixture must be grounded
(earthed). The AC mains supply shall be fitted with a fuse or circuit breaker and
ground-fault protection.
Install a plug on the power cord
You may need to install a cord cap that fits your supply on the power cable. A 3-prong grounding-type plug must be installed following the manufacturer’s instructions. Connect the wires to the pins as listed below. Note: The table shows some possible pin identification schemes; if the pins are not clearly identified, or if you have any doubts about proper installation, consult a qualified electrician.

Connect the MAC 600/E directly to AC power. Do not connect it to a dimmer system; doing so may damage the fixture. To apply power, set the power switch on the base to the “I” position.
Rigging the fixture in place
WARNING!
Use 2 clamps to rig the fixture. Lock each clamp with both 1/4-turn fasteners. The
fasteners are locked only when turned fully clockwise.
Attach an approved safety cable to the base.
The MAC 600/E can be placed directly on the stage floor or rigged in any orientation on a truss. The integrated Fast-Lock sys­tem enables quick and easy fastening of the clamp adapters in 4 different positions as shown below.
1. Verify that the rigging clamps (not included) are undamaged and can bear at least 10 times the weight of the fixture. Bolt the clamps securely to the clamp brackets with a grade 8.8 (minimum) M12 bolt and lock nut, or as recommended by the clamp manufacturer.
2. Tip the MAC 600/E on its side or install the clamps while the fixture is in the flight case.
3. Align a clamp with 2 mounting points. Insert the fasteners into the base and turn both levers a full 1/4-
4. Verify that the structure can bear at least 10 times the weight of all installed fixtures, clamps, cables,
5. Working from a stable platform, hang the fixture on the truss. The front is indicated by an arrow on the base.

designed to fit a caribiner clamp. Never use the carrying handles for secondary attachment.
7. Tighten the rigging clamps securely to the structure.
8. Verify that there are no combustible materials or surfaces to be illuminated within 1 meter of the fixture,
and that there are no flammable materials nearby.
Connecting the serial link
Tips for building a serial link
1. Use shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 devices. Standard microphone cable cannot
transmit control data reliably over long runs; use only cable designed for RS-485 applications. 24 AWG cable is suitable for runs up to 300 meters (1000 ft). Heavier gauge cable and/or an amplifier is recom­mended for longer runs.
2. Never use a “Y” connector to split the link. To split the serial link into branches use a splitter such as the Martin 4-Channel Opto-Isolated RS-485 Splitter/Amplifier.
3. Do not overload the link. Up to 32 devices may be connected on a serial link.
4. Terminate the link by installing a termination plug in the output socket of the last fixture on the link.
The termination plug, which is simply a male XLR connector with a 120 ohm, 0.25 watt resistor sol­dered between pins 2 and 3, “soaks up” the control signal so it does not reflect back down the link and cause interference. If a splitter is used, terminate each branch of the link.
Connecting fixtures
The MAC 600/E has locking 3-pin data input and output sockets that can be configured for use with either DMX or Martin Protocol controllers. The default pin-out is configured to the DMX-512 standard, i.e., pin 1 to shield, pin 2 to signal (-) and pin 3 to signal (+).

1. Connect the controller’s data output to the MAC 600/E’s data input. For a
DMX controller with 5-pin output: use a cable with 5-pin male and 3-pin female connectors such as P/N 11820005. Pins 4 and 5 are not used.
DMX controller with 3-pin output: use a cable with 3-pin male and female connectors such as the one supplied.
Martin RS-485 Protocol controller: use a phase-reversing cable, such as P/N 11820006, with 3-pin male and female connectors or reconfigure the XLR output.
2. Continue the link: connect the output of the fixture closest to the controller to the input of the next fix­ture. Use a phase-reversing cable when connecting a DMX-standard (pin 3 +) device to a Martin-stan­dard (pin 3 -) device.
3. Insert a male 120 XLR termination plug in the output of the last fixture on the link.

Setting control protocol and address
One of the operating modes shown below must be selected. Factors to consider when selecting a mode will depend on your controller and are discussed in the next section. Maximum flexibility is provided in mode 4.
Each fixture must be assigned its own channels to receive instructions from the controller. The address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used. Addresses are independent of the physical link: they may be set in any convenient order. Two MAC 600/E’s may share the same address; however, they will receive the same instructions and independent control will
not be possible.

4. Press [↑] or [] until the desired protocol, as shown in the above table, appears on the display. Press
[ENTER] to confirm.
5. Press [] or [↓] repeatedly until the display shows either dAdr or MAdr, depending on whether you
wish to select a DMX address or Martin address, respectively. Press [ENTER] to confirm.
6. Press [↑] or [↓] repeatedly until the desired address is displayed. Press [ENTER] to confirm.
Press [MENU] to return to the main menu. The address is displayed. Address and protocol settings are saved when the power is switched off.
Installing the snoot (optional)
1. Bend the tabs 90°.
2. Bend the ring into a circle with the tabs on the outside. Weave the end tab through the 3 slots.
3. Insert the tabs between the 3 pairs of pins between the lens and the head cover.

section 3
OPERATION
This section describes the MAC 600/E’s controllable features and the options for customizing them for your application. Option selection is described in the next section.
Martin RS-485 control
The MAC 600/E may be controlled with the Martin 3032 controller. For the fixture to respond, either the protocol setting (
PSET) must be set to Martin (MART) as described in the previous section, or automatic protocol detection (SPEC/AUTO)
must be enabled.
DMX-512 control
Tracking mode
In tracking mode the speed at which an effect moves is determined by the controller’s fade time. The effect tracks the fade from one DMX value to another and a digital filter algorithm ensures smooth movement at all fade speeds.
There are 2 selectable tracking algorithms to provide extremely smooth movement with any controller. Algorithm 1 calculates speed based on the absolute value of DMX changes; it is recommended for use with most controllers. Algorithm 2 uses the real value of DMX changes to calculate speed and may provide smoother movement if the controller-calculated DMX values are uneven.
The number of samples, that is, changes in DMX values, used by both algorithms to calculate speed is selectable between a level of 1 to 10. The ideal setting will vary from controller to controller - experiment for best results. Increasing the number of samples makes movement less responsive to sudden DMX changes and smoother as a result.
Vector mode
In vector mode, 2 speed channels provide a way to control the effects’ speed with controllers that do not have programmable fade times. This mode may result in smoother movement when using a controller with a slow or irregular refresh rate. Vector mode also provides a “blackout” speed and overrides of the pan/tilt speed (PTSP), shortcut (SCUT), and studio mode (MOdE) menu settings.
In vector mode the controller fade time should be set to 0, i.e., the position bumps from one value to the next. However, con­troller fade times can be enabled by setting the speed channel between 0 and 2.
8-bit versus 16-bit pan/tilt resolution
With 8-bit pan/tilt resolution, the pan and tilt are divided into 256 equal increments. Finer position control and smoother movement is provided in the 16-bit modes.
Lamp control
A peak of electric current that can be many times the operating current is drawn for an instant when striking the lamp. Striking many lamps at once causes a voltage drop that can prevent lamps from striking and trip the main circuit breaker. To avoid this, strike lamps at 5 second intervals.
Lamp on (lamp strike)
The MAC 600/E can be set to automatically strike within 90 seconds of being powered on by setting Automatic Lamp On (
SPEC/ALON) to ON. A delay determined by the fixture address prevents all lamps from striking at the same time. This
option is set to off by default.
Lamp power can be switched on and off remotely from the controller. (For DMX commands see page 20.) Once the lamp is on, additional lamp-on commands have no effect. If the lamp fails to strike in the MAC 600 E, repeated lamp-on com- mands will fail until a lamp-off command is executed or fixture power is cycled off and on.
Lamp off
Power to the lamp can be turned off from a DMX controller by sending a value from 248 to 255 on channel 1 for 5 seconds if:
•DMX Lamp Off (SPEC/dLOF) is set to on, or
•DMX Lamp Off (
Be careful: it is not possible to strike the lamp for 8 minutes after executing a lamp-off command. The MAC 600/E however, will store a lamp-on command and strike the lamp when the 8 minutes have elapsed.
SPEC/dLOF) is set to off (default) and the CMY values on channels 3, 4, and 5 are from 230 to 232.
User Manual 9
Reduced power (MAC 600 E)
With the MAC 600 E, lamp power falls to 400 watts for cooler operation and longer lamp life when the shutter is closed for 10 seconds. Power instantly returns to full when the shutter opens. Reduced-power mode with the shutter open can be forced by setting channel 1 to a DMX value from 116 to 122.
Mechanical effects
All mechanical effects are reset to a “home” position when the fixture is powered up. The fixture can also be reset via DMX if DMX reset ( even if this feature is disabled; see the DMX protocol for details.
An on-the-fly position correction system automatically corrects the position of the effect wheels. This feature can be disabled by setting effects feedback (
SPEC/dRES) is enabled. There is also a combination of DMX values that allows you to reset the MAC 600/E
SPEC/EFFb) to OFF.
General operation may be optimized for speed or quietness with the studio mode setting (
MOdE).
Pan and tilt
The moving head can be panned 440° and tilted 306°. The middle of the pan range is perpendicular to the front of the fixture, as indicated by the arrow on the base. Movement may be optimized for speed by setting the pan/tilt speed ( to
FAST, or for smoothness by setting it to NORM. The setting may be overridden on the speed channel in vector mode.
Movement is disabled if lamp feedback is lost - indicating a blown lamp - to prevent possible damage or injury due to glass fragments.
Setting the movement speed to “blackout” in vector mode causes the shutter to black out the light while the head is moving.
The pan and tilt DMX channels can be inverted and/or swapped for convenience using the pan/tilt (
PTSP) personality
PATI) menu.
Color wheel
The color wheel has red, green, and blue dichroic color filters plus a 5600K to 3400K color correction filter and open white. The wheel can be scrolled, allowing for split color effects, snapped to fixed positions, and continuously rotated in both direc­tions at different speeds.
The Shortcuts ( direction only. The setting may be overridden on the speed channel in vector mode.
Setting the color speed to “blackout” in vector mode causes the shutter to black out the light while the wheel moves.
SPEC/SCUT) setting determines whether the wheel takes the shortest path to the next position or turns in one
CMY subtractive color mixing
The CMY color mixing system is based on three graduated dichroic color filters: cyan, magenta, and yellow. Each color can be added from 0 to 100%. A very wide range of colors may be achieved by varying the amount of each color. Since the CMY system is subtractive, mixing 3 colors together results in a loss of light. For maximum brightness, mix 2 colors at a time. Three speed random CMY color mixing is available at the top of channel 6.
The Shortcuts ( direction only. The setting may be overridden on the speed channel in vector mode.
SPEC/SCUT) setting determines whether the wheels take the shortest path to the next position or turn in one
Beam shapers and frost
Two beam shapers allow you to widen and flatten the beam. Beam shaper 1 rotates 180° and beam shaper 2 rotates 90°. They may be combined to drag the beam horizontally and vertically to increase the beam size.
A frost filter on the same wheel as beam shaper 2 softens the beam.
Dimmer
The mechanical dimmer provides smooth, high-resolution 100 percent dimming.
Shutter
The high-speed mechanical shutter opens and closes the light instantly. Light can be flashed at up to 8 Hz and there is a DMX­callable random strobe function.
If the auto shutter function (SPEC/ASHT) is enabled, the shutter, which is faster than the dimmer, automatically closes when the dimmer receives a command to close “instantly,” to provide faster blackouts.

section 4
CONTROL MODULE
The 4-digit LED control panel on the side of the MAC 600/E allows you to set the address and personalities, read lamp hours and other information, calibrate effects, control the fixture manually, and run a test routine. Most of these functions may be performed remotely via the serial link with a Martin MPBB1 or MP-2 uploader.
The display can be flipped for easy reading by pressing the [] and [] keys simultaneously. The intensity is adjustable and the display can be set to go out 2 minutes after the last key-press.
The DMX or Martin address, depending on the protocol setting, and any error messages are displayed when the MAC 600/E is turned on. To enter the menu, press [MENU]. Use the [] and [] keys to move within the menu. To select a function or sub­menu, press [ENTER]. To escape a function or menu, press [MENU].

MAINTENANCE AND BASIC SERVICE OPERATIONS
The MAC 600/E requires regular maintenance to keep performing at its optimum. The maintenance schedule will be depen­dent upon the operating environment. Dirty lenses and filters reduce the light’s brightness. Cooling fans covered by dust may cause overheating, thus causing the thermostat to cut out the lamp intermittently. This section takes you through the general maintenance procedures and describes some basic service operations.
WARNING!
All service procedures that require removing covers shall be performed
by a qualified technician.
Disconnect from AC power before removing any cover or part.
Removing the printed circuit board
1. Disconnect the fixture from AC power.
2. Remove the flat plate from the top of the front side of the base. Do not remove the curved side plates.
3. Unplug the white plastic wire connectors from the top of the printed circuit board. To unplug a connec-
tor, hold the plastic connector - never pull the wires - and pull it straight off the pins.
4. Grasp the black pins on either end of the circuit board and gently pull it out. You may have to guide some wires past the motor housing. Be careful not to knock the copper heat sinks.
Replacing the printed circuit board
1. Gently put the circuit board back into the base. You may have to guide
some wires past the motor housing. Push the black pins down to lock the board in place.
2. Reconnect the wire connectors. Each connector (except for the 2 fan connectors and the control module connector) is labelled. Fit the female over the male with the “rails” on the female connector over the “tongue” on the male connector. Your MAC 600/E may or may not have unused connectors PL301 and PL302. Starting from the end with the copper heat sinks, the connection order
is:

Changing lenses
WARNING
Attach the safety wire to the front head section.
-
3
18° and 65° field angle options are available for the MAC 600/E. (See “Accessories” on page 26.) The lens is mounted on a snap-lock “lens hood” or front section that attaches easily to the head. Simply release the snap locks and unhook the safety wire to remove the standard lens front. Hook the safety wire to the same location on the optional front and snap the locks closed.
IMPORTANT
The long front (18° option) does not fit in some flight cases.
The 18° front is longer than the standard front; the MAC 600/E fitted with this option fits only in flight cases produced after September, 1997. These can be identified by the outside measurements: 894 mm (35.2") from bottom to top, including wheels. Older flight cases measure 860 mm (34") from bottom to top, including wheels, on the outside.
Verify that the flight case is of the newer type before shipping MAC 600/Es fitted with the 18° long front.
Cleaning the optical path
Cleaning and servicing components in the head is best left to qualified Martin technicians.
To access the optical components, remove the head cover. Remember to attach the internal safety cable when reassembling the head.
Be very careful if you decide to clean the optical components. The colored surface on the dichroic filters is achieved by means of special multi-layer coatings and even small scratches in these might be visible. Residues left from cleaning fluids can bake onto and ruin the component.
Wash dirty lenses and filters with isopropyl alcohol. Rinse with distilled water: mixing the water with a small amount of wet­ting agent such as Kodak Photoflo will help prevent streaking and spotting. Dry with a clean, soft and lint-free cloth or blow dry with compressed air. A generous amount of regular window glass cleaner may also be used, but no residues may remain.
Cleaning the fans
To ensure proper cooling of the fixture it is important that the fans are free of dust. Clean the fans with a vacuum or damp cloth if they are dirty.
16 MAC 600/E
Replacing the lamp
The risk of lamp explosion increases with lamp hours as the quartz envelope gradually weakens. It is recommended that lamp usage not exceed 125 percent of the lamp’s rated average life.
The procedure for installing the lamp is described on page 5. After installing the lamp, reset the RLAH and RLST counters under the TIME menu as described page 13.
Optimizing lamp alignment
The lamp alignment is set at the factory. If, however, the distribution of light does not appear even, lamp alignment can be adjusted.
1. Switch on the MAC 600/E and allow it to reset.
2. Using either a controller or the control module, turn on the lamp and aim the light towards a flat sur-
face.
3. Center the hot-spot (the brightest part of the beam) using the 3 allen-head (3 mm) adjustment screws. 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.
4. To reduce a hot-spot, pull the lamp in by turning all three screws clockwise 1/4-turn at a time until the light is evenly distributed.
5. If the light is brighter around the edge than it is in the center, or if light output is low, the lamp is too far back in the reflector. “Push” the lamp out by turning the screws counterclockwise 1/4-turn at a time until the light is bright and evenly distributed.
Changing voltage and frequency settings
The voltage and frequency settings must match the local AC power supply! These settings are printed on the serial number label on the bottom of the base. Using the wrong setting can cause overheating, fixture damage, and/or poor performance.
MAC 600 (magnetic ballast)
1. Disconnect the MAC 600 from AC power. Remove the top covers.
2. Find the correct transformer and ballast terminals for your AC supply in the table below. Consult a
qualified electrician if you do not know the AC frequency and voltage.

3. Locate the transformer: it is on the left end, near the power switch. Move the BROWN and RED trans­former wires to the correct terminal. The terminal number is printed in front of the connection tab.
4. Locate the magnetic ballast: it is on the opposite end from the transformer, near the control panel. Move the BROWN ballast wire to the correct terminal. The terminal number is printed in front of the connection tab.
5. Replace the top covers before applying power.
User Manual 17
MAC 600 E (electronic ballast)
The electronic ballast works at any voltage between 100 and 250 volts, and at any frequency between 50 and 60 Hz.
1. Disconnect the fixture from AC power. Remove the top covers.
2. Tap the transformer for the local supply voltage as shown below.
3. Verify that the primary fuse, which is located near the power switch, is correct for the voltage setting.
Use a T 6.3 A fuse when the transformer is set at 200, 210, 220, 230, or 240 V. Use a T 10 A fuse when it is set at 100, 110, or 120 V.

Updating software
The latest MAC 600/E software is available from your Martin dealer and the Martin Professional web site. Be sure to read the upgrade notes included with the software.
Software updates are installed using a Martin MPBB1, MP-2, or a LightJockey 4064 DMX interface card. The procedure is found in the upload device’s user manual and, when using the 4064 card, the Martin Software Uploader program’s online help file.
Normal upload
The uploader is connected to the fixture just like a controller. Under normal conditions, software can be installed from a remote location - there is no need to set the MAC 600/E to boot mode. Please refer to the uploader manual for instructions.
Boot mode upload
If the data is corrupted during transmission a check-sum error (CSER) will occur and after 15 seconds the fixture will auto­matically switch over to boot mode (
If a software upload to the MAC 600/E is interrupted, the fixture must be powered off for at least 10 seconds before a new upload can be attempted. When powered on, a check-sum error will occur and it will automatically go into boot mode, ready for a second upload attempt. Select boot mode upload on the upload device.
If there is no functional software in the MAC 600/E memory, the fixture must be set to boot mode manually before starting the upload. If the control panel works, select [ENTER].
If the control panel does not work, boot mode can be engaged by mov­ing jumper PL121 on the main circuit board to pins 1 and 2 as follows.
