DMX control 19
DMX control
Overview
DMX is a digital control system widely used in entertainment and architectural lighting. Any controller meeting the DMX-512 standard may be used to control and program the fog output of the JEM ZR series™ machines.
When a DMX signal is present, the JEM ZR series™ machine
s
stand-alone functions do not work. To fire the unit from the control panel or remote control, the DMX controller must be powered off or disconnected.
If the DMX signal is removed (controller turned off or unplugged), the machine will revert to its previously stored RUN MODE settings.
If the machine was set to OFF it will revert to this state. If the machine was set to STANDBY it will revert to this state. If the machine was set to TIMER it will revert to this state. If the machine was set to CONTINUOUS it will revert to this state.
Connection
The JEM ZR series™ machine provides 5-pin XLR connectors on the rear of the machine for DMX connection.
For best results, use cable designed for high speed digital data transmission. Suitable DMX cable is available from your Martin™ dealer.
DMX functions
The JEM ZR series™ address setting must match the DMX address allocated to it on your controller. To set the address, see “Setting the DMX base address” on page 16. The JEM ZR series™ machine requires one DMX channel.
When the machine is at running temperature and is under DMX control it displays DMX (+ the current DMX base address).
The DMX control values are shown in the table below.

20 Fog fluid types
Fog fluid types
The JEM ZR series™ machines must only be used with the JEM™ fluids listed below. Martin™ supplies high quality fog fluids that are based on ultra-pure deionized water. No other fluid is suitable for use.
Regular DJ Fluid (DJ mix)
Regular DJ fluid is an economical fluid that gives a good, medium density smoke well-suited for atmospheric effects.
Pro Smoke Super (ZR mix)
Pro Smoke Super fluid is a high-quality, general purpose fluid that produces a dense white airborne fog with medium dispersal time. Its medium to high index of refraction permits both good atmospheric effects and denser “white-outs”.
Pro Smoke High Density (SP mix)
Pro Smoke High Density fluid generates a high density, white, airborne fog with a very high index of refraction and slow evaporation rate. It is well suited for scenic obscuring, dramatic strobe effects, and “white-outs”.
Pro Steam Simulation
For ZR45 only - Pro Steam Simulation fluid is a light fluid that produces well-defined cones of vapour that disperse quickly. It is ideal for chase effects and theatrical use. Not suitable for ZR25 and ZR35.
TEMPERATURE MENU The different fluid types listed require correct selection of the relevant temperature setting in the TEMPERATURE sub-menu of the SETTINGS menu. Select the required temperature and press Enter to store.
The selected temperature setting will remain after power off and is indicated on the display whilst in standby (TEMP=NORM) and also shows during manual operation/DMX control (T=N).

Cleaning
Excessive dust, fog fluid, and dirt build-up will degrade performance and cause overheating and damage to the machine that is not covered by the product warranty. To maintain adequate cooling, dust must be cleaned from the outer casing and air vents of the machine periodically.
Isolate the machine from power and allow to cool completely before cleaning. The fog output nozzles remain hot for a period after use.
Remove dust from the air vents with a soft brush, cotton swab, vacuum,
or compressed air.
Clean fog fluid residues from the fog output of the machine using a
damp cloth.
Clean the outer casing with a damp cloth only.
Fuse replacement
The main fuse for the machine is located adjacent to the power inlet on the rear panel. There is also a T3.15A fuse located on the electronics board inside the unit which protects the supply to the pump.
DANGER! Disconnect the power supply before removing any covers or changing fuses. Live parts inside!
Rear panel fuse: ZR25 120 V = 10 AT/125V 230 V = T6.3 AT/250V ZR35 120 V = 15 AT/125V 230 V = T10 AT/250V ZR45 120 V = 20 AT/125V 230 V = T12.5 AT/250V
Replace fuse only with one of exactly the same size and rating. Contact Martin™ Service if the fuse blows repeatedly.
To replace the internal fuse, disconnect the power cord from the supply, unscrew the screws holding the top cover of the unit and remove the cover. The electronics board is located in the side compartment.
