DMX MODE SETTING
The MiniMAC has 4 control modes for operation wi th DMX512 controllers. T he modes mix tracking and vector control with 8 and 16-bit pan/tilt resolution in different combinations to minimize channel requirements. Mode 1 provides basic control and requires the fewest channels. Modes 2 and 3 provide some addit ional control options. Mode 4 provides the full set of control options.
TRACKING VERSUS VECTOR CONTROL
With tracking control (al l mode s) the s peed at which an e ffect changes fro m one position to another (fades) is determined by programming a fade time between 2 scenes using a cross-fader.
With vector control (modes 3 and 4), speed is programmed on separate speed channels. This provides a way to program fades on controllers without cross-faders. With some controllers, vector control provides smoother movement than tracking control, particularly at slow speeds.
The speed channel must be set to “tracking speed” when using a cross-fader (tracking control) to program fades.
The speed channel s al so provide a “b lackou t spe ed” that c aus es th e sh utter t o cl ose while the effect is moving in order to make the transition invisible.
8-BIT VERSUS 16-BIT PAN/TILT RESOLUTION
8-bit pan/tilt resolution (modes 1 and 3) divides the pan and tilt ranges into 1 - 2° increments. 16-bit resolution (modes 2 and 4) divides pan into 0.013° steps and tilt into 0.007° steps for finer position control and smoother movement.

ADDRESS SELECTION
The control address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used to receive instructions from the controller. The total number of channels used depends on the control mode.
Be sure to allow adequate channels when setting the control address. If control channels for one fixture overlap control channels for another fixture, then one of the fixtures will receive the wrong commands. To find the highest usable address channel, subtract the number of channels required from the last controller channel and add 1.
Two MiniMACs of the same type, and operating in the same control mode, may share the same address if they are to respond identically. They will receive the same commands and individual control will be impossible.

1 Connect a data cable to the controller’s data output. If controller has a 5-pin
output, use a 5-pin male to 3-pin female adaptor cable (P/N 11820005). Lead the cable from the controller to the first fixture and plug it into the data input.
2 Connect the output of the fixture closest to the
controller to the input of the next fixture. If connecting to a fixture with reversed-polarity (pin 3 cold), insert a phase-reversing cable between the tw o fixtures.
3 Continue connecting fixtures output to input. Up to
32 devices may be connected on a serial link.
4 Terminate the link by inserting a male termination
plug (P/N 91613017) into the data output of the last fixture. A termination plug is simp ly an XLR connector with a 120 ohm, 0.25 W resistor soldered across pins 2 and 3.
CONTROLLABLE EFFECTS
LAMP POWER
Lamp power can be switched on and off from the controll er. When set up for contr ol ler operation, and with the automatic la mp-on p ersona lity set to of f, the la mp remains off until a lamp-on command is sent.
Note: A peak of electric current many times the operating current is drawn briefly when striking a lamp. Striking many discharge lamps at once may cause a voltage drop that prevents lamps from striking or trips circuit breakers. When striking multiple fixtures, space lamp-on commands at 5 second intervals.
The lamp must be allowed to cool for several minutes after turning it off before it can be turned back on. To prevent accidental lamp-off commands, this command can be partially disabled from th e control panel: see page 14. If a hot la mp does not strike, send the lamp off command and wait several minutes before trying again.
RESET
All effects can be reset to their index positions from the controller. To prevent accidental resets, the command can be partially disabled from the control panel: see page 14.
Controller operation 19
Page 20
SHUTTER
The mechanical shutter opens, closes, and strobes at variable and random rates up to
11.4 Hz. The shutter closes automatically after 10 seconds if the light beam is projected on the base to prevent heat damage. The shutter opens instantly when the beam is moved.
STAND-ALONE MODE
“Stand-alone” operation may be activated from the controller.
COLOR
The color wheel provides continuous-scroll for split-color effects and stepped-scroll for full-color positions. The wheel rotates continuously at variable speed and provides a random color function.
GOBOS
The MiniMAC Profile provides 7 interchangeable gobos that shake, swing, and rotate at variable speed. The wheel also provides a random gobo function.
PAN AND TILT
The head pans 540° and tilts 270°. If knocked or jarred out of position, pan and tilt are reset automatically when the head reaches one of its limits.

5 Holding the new lamp by its ceramic base (do not touch the glass), align the
small pin with the small hole and insert the lamp squarely into the soc ket. Make sure that the 4 small projections on the base contact the socket.
6 If your fingers touched the glass bulb, clean it with a clean, lint-free cloth
wetted with alcohol.
7 Insert the lamp assembly and replace the screws (A). 8 Reset the lamp hour and lam p strike counters as described on page 16.
To align the lamp
The lamp is pre-aligned at the factory. Realignment when changing the lamp may improve performance.
1 Strike the lamp and shine the light on a flat surface. 2 Center the hot-spot (the brightest part of the beam) with small turns of the
adjustment screws (B) using a Pozidriv #2 screwdriver. If there is no hot-spot, adjust the reflector until the light is even.
3 To reduce a hot-spot, turn all 3 screws clockwise (B) 1/4-turn at a time until the
light is evenly di s tr ibute d.
4 If the light is bright er ar ound t he edge than it is in th e center, or if light output is
low, the lamp is too far back in the reflector. Turn the adjustment screws (B) counterclockwise 1/4-turn at a time until the light is bright and evenly distributed.
5 If you have trouble aligning the lamp, remove the lamp and check that it is
seated squarely in the socket.
