Martin™ 24-hour service hotline on [phone], or in the
USA on 1-888-tech-180.

Respect all locally applicable laws, codes and regulations when
installing, operating or servicing the fixture.

Protection from electric shock

Do not expose the fixture to rain or moisture.
Disconnect the fixture from AC power before carrying out any

installation or maintenance work and when the fixture is not in
use.

Ensure that the fixture is electrically connected to ground
(earth).

Use only Neutrik PowerCon cable connectors to connect to the
fixture’s power sockets.

Use only a source of AC power that complies with local building
and electrical codes and has both overload and ground-fault
(earth-fault) protection.

Socket outlets or external power switches used to supply the
fixture with power must be located near the fixture and easily
accessible so that the fixture can easily be disconnected from
power.

Isolate the fixture from power immediately if the power plug or
any seal, cover, cable, or other component is damaged,
defective, deformed, wet or showing signs of overheating. Do
not reapply power until repairs have been completed

Before using the fixture, check that all power distribution
equipment and cables are in perfect condition and rated for the
electrical requirements of all connected devices.

Do not connect devices to power in a chain that will exceed the
electrical ratings of any cable or connector used in the chain.

The mains power input cable supplied with the fixture is rated to
supply only one fixture with mains power. Do not connect any
device to the fixture’s MAINS OUT socket when using this input
cable. If you want to connect other fixtures to the MAINS OUT
socket, see ‘Linking fixtures to power in a chain’ on page 12.

Ensure that there is free and unobstructed airflow around the
fixture. Provide a minimum clearance of 0.5 m (20 in.) around
fans and air vents.

Do not illuminate surfaces within 0.5 m (20 in.) of the fixture.
Do not attempt to bypass thermostatic switches or fuses.
Do not stick filters, masks or other materials onto any optical

component.
The fixture’s lenses can focus the sun’s rays inside the fixture,

creating a risk of fire and damage. Do not expose the front of
the fixture to sunlight or any other bright light source.

Protection from injury

Fasten the fixture securely to a fixed surface or structure when
in use. The fixture is not portable when installed.

clamps to the fixture. Do not use safety cables as the primary
means of support.

If the fixture is installed in a location where it may cause injury
or damage if it falls, install as directed in this manual a
secondary attachment such as a safety cable that will hold the
fixture if a primary attachment fails. The secondary attachment
must be approved by an official body such as TÜV as a safety
attachment for the weight that it secures, must comply with EN
60598-2-17 Section 17.6.6 and must be capable of bearing a
static suspended load that is ten times the weight of the fixture

RUSH PAR 4 UV User Manual 9

Introduction

The RUSH PAR 4 UV is a bright single-lens UV LED PAR Can using a 100
watt COB RGB LED. It offers electronic dimming and strobe and features a
bracket for floor or truss mounting. The LED source and rugged, lightweight
construction make it ideal for live shows, TV events, stage, concerts, and
nightclubs.

The RUSH PAR 4 UV can be controlled using any DMX-compliant controller
and may be remotely configured by RDM. It is supplied with this user manual,
and a 1.5 m (4.9 ft.) power cable ready for a local power plug (not included).

This user manual is for software v1.1.0.

Before using the product for the first time

1. Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 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. 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.

4. Ensure that the voltage and frequency of the power supply match the

power requirements of the fixture.

5. Check the support pages on the Martin Professional 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 4 before
installing th

e fixture.

The fixture is designed for indoor use only and must be used in
a dry location with adequate ventilation. Ensure that none of the
fixture’s ventilation slots are blocked.

Fasten the fixture to a secure structure or surface. Do not stand
it on a surface or leave it where it can be moved or fall over. If
you install the fixture in a location where it may cause injury or
damage if it falls, secure it as directed in this user manual using
a securely anchored safety cable that will hold the fixture if the
primary fastening method fails.

Do not use the fixture to illuminate surfaces within 0.5 m (20 in.)
of the fixture.

Martin™ can supply safety cables and rigging clamps that are suitable for use
with the fixture (see ‘Accessories’ on page 31).

Standing the fixture on the floor

The fixture may be used free standing on the floor by spreading the two
mounting brackets apart.

Fastening the fixture to a flat surface

The fixture can be fastened to a hard, fixed, flat surface. 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. 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. When installing the fixture
hanging vertically down, you can use an open-type clamp
such as a G-clamp. When installing in any other orientation,
you must use a closed-type rigging clamp such as half­coupler clamp (see illustration on right) that completely
encircles the truss chord.

RUSH PAR 4 UV User Manual 11

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. Fold the legs of the mounting bracket together. Check that the rigging

clamps are undamaged and approved for the fixture’s weight. Bolt a
rigging clamp securely to the bracket. The bolt used must be M12, grade

8.8 steel minimum, and fastened with a self-locking nut.

4. Working from a stable platform, hang the fixture on the truss and fasten

the rigging clamp onto the truss.

5. Secure the fixture with a safety cable as directed below.

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 a primary attachment fails.

Loop the safety cable through the eye bracket on the fixture (arrowed in
illustration below) 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.
