PROTECTION FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK

• Do not remove any cover from the fixture’s base or yoke.

• Disconnect the fixture from AC power before removing or installing any cover or part – including the lamp – from the head and when not in use.

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

• 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.

• The power input cable must be rated 20 A, hard usage type and heat-resistant to 90° C (194° F) minimum. It must have three conductors and an outer cable diameter of 5 - 15 mm (0.2 - 0.6 in.). In North

Page 5

America the cable must be 12 AWG minimum conductor size, SJT or better. In the EU the cable must be

2.5 mm², HAR compliant.

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

• Isolate the fixture from power immediately if the power cable or power plug are in any way damaged, defective or wet, or if they show signs of overheating.

• Do not expose the fixture to rain or moisture.

LAMP SAFETY

• Prolonged exposure to an unshielded discharge lamp can cause eye and skin burns. Do not stare directly into the light output. Never look at an exposed lamp while it is lit. Do not operate the fixture with missing or damaged covers, shields, lenses or ultraviolet screens.

• A hot discharge lamp is under pressure and can explode without warning. Allow the fixture to cool for at least 30 minutes and protect yourself with safety glasses and gloves before handling a lamp or servicing the fixture internals.

• Replace the lamp immediately if it becomes visually deformed, damaged or in any way defective

• Monitor hours of lamp use and lamp intensity and replace the lamp when it reaches the limit of its service life as specified in this product’s specifications or by the lamp manufacturer.

• Install only a lamp that is specifically approved by Martin™ for this product.

• If the quartz envelope of a discharge lamp is broken, the lamp releases a small quantity of mercury and other toxic gases. If a discharge lamp explodes in a confined area, evacuate the area and ventilate it thoroughly. Wear nitrite gloves when handling a broken discharge lamp. Treat broken or used discharge lamps as hazardous waste and send to a specialist for disposal.

PROTECTION FROM BURNS AND FIRE

• The exterior of the fixture becomes very hot – up to 150° C (302° F) – during use. Avoid contact by persons and materials. Allow the fixture to cool for at least 30 minutes before handling.

• Keep all combustible materials (e.g. fabric, wood, paper) at least 0.3 m (12 in.) away from the fixture. Keep flammable materials well away from the fixture.

• Provide a minimum clearance of 0.1 m (4 in.) around fans and air vents.

• Do not illuminate surfaces within 1.6 m (5.2 ft.) of the fixture.

• Position or shade the head so that the lens cannot face the sun – even for a few seconds – during daylight hours. The lens can focus the sun's rays inside the fixture, creating a potential fire hazard.

• Do not operate the fixture if the ambient temperature (Ta) exceeds 40° C (104° F).

• Do not modify the fixture in any way not described in this manual or the product’s User Guide or install other than genuine Martin™ parts. Do not stick filters, masks or other materials onto any lens or other optical component. Use only accessories approved by Martin™ to mask or modify the light beam.

PROTECTION FROM INJURY

• Do not lift or carry the fixture alone.

• The handles in the base and on the top of the yoke are for use when carrying the product only. Do not use them for hoisting, primary attachment or secondary attachment.

• Use two evenly spaced clamps to suspend the fixture from rigging structures. Do not use only one clamp.

• When clamping the fixture to a truss or other supporting structure at any other angle than with the yoke hanging vertically downwards, use two half-coupler clamps. Do not use G-clamps, quick-trigger clamps or any other type of clamp that does not completely encircle the supporting structure when fastened.

• When suspending the fixture, ensure that the supporting structure and all hardware used can hold at least 10 times the weight of all devices suspended from them.

• Install as described in this manual a secondary attachment such as a safety cable that is approved by an official body such as TÜV as a safety attachment for the weight of all the fixtures it secures. The safety cable must comply with EN 60598-2-17 Section 17.6.6 and also be capable of bearing a static suspended load ten times the weight of the fixture.

• Check that all external covers and rigging hardware are securely fastened.

• Block access below the work area and work from a stable platform whenever installing, servicing or moving the fixture.

Warning! The MAC Viper Performance has a powerful pan motor. The torque reaction when the head is panned suddenly can cause the base to move if the fixture is standing unsecured on a surface. Do not apply power to the MAC Viper Performance unless the base is securely fastened to a surface or to rigging hardware.

Warning! Use 2 clamps to rig the fixture. Do not hang the fixture from only one clamp. Lock each clamp with both 1/4-turn fasteners. Fasteners are locked only when turned fully clockwise.

Warning! When suspending the fixture above ground level, secure it against failure of primary attachments by attaching a safety wire that is approved as a safety attachment for the weight of the fixture to the attachment point in the base. Do not use the carrying handles for secondary attachment.

Warning! When clamping the fixture to a truss or other structure at any other angle than with the yoke hanging vertically downwards, use two clamps of half-coupler type. Do not use any type of clamp that does not completely encircle the structure when fastened.

Warning! Position or shade the head so that the lens does not face the sun at any time – even for a few seconds – during daylight hours. The MAC Viper Performance’s lens can focus the sun's rays inside the fixture, creating a potential fire hazard and causing internal damage.

Important! Do not point the output from other lighting fixtures at the MAC Viper Performance from a distance of less than 3 m (10 ft.), as intense illumination can damage the display.

The MAC Viper Performance can be fastened to a surface such as a stage or clamped to a truss in any orientation. Clamps must be half-coupler type (see Figure 3) unless the fixture is installed with the yoke hanging vertically downwards, in which case other clamp types that are approved for the supported weight may be used.

The mounting points allow the clamp brackets to be fastened parallel, perpendicular or at 45° to the front, as shown in Figure 2.

AC power

Chuck BushingHousing Insert

Cable end

Termin als

Warning! For protection from electric shock, the fixture must be electrically connected to ground (earth). The AC mains power supply must be fitted with a fuse or circuit breaker and ground-fault (earth-fault) protection.

The MAC Viper Performance features an auto-sensing switch-mode power supply that automatically adapts to AC power at 120-240 V (nominal), 50/60 Hz.

Power input

Important! Connect the MAC Viper Performance directly to AC power. Do not connect it to a dimmer system; doing so may damage the fixture.

The MAC Viper Performance requires a power input cable with a Neutrik PowerCon NAC3FCA cable connector for AC mains power input. The cable must meet the requirements listed under “Protection from electric shock” on page 4.

Martin™ can supply either a suitable 3 m (9.8 ft.) power cable with PowerCon input connector installed or the PowerCon input connector without a cable (see “Accessories” on page 31).

Installing a power input connector on a power cable

To install a Neutrik PowerCon NAC3FCA input connector on a power cable, see illustrations above and right:

1. Slide the bushing over the cable.

2. Slide the white chuck over cables with a diameter (D

(0.2 - 0.4 in.), or the black chuck over cables with a diameter of 10 15 mm (0.4 - 0.6 in.).

3. Prepare the end of the cable by stripping 20 mm (0.8 in.) of the

cable’s outer jacket.

4. Strip 8 mm (1/3 in.) of insulation from the end of each wire.

5. Use a small flathead screwdriver to fasten the wires into the

connector terminals in the insert as follows:

• live wire into the terminal marked L

• neutral wire into the terminal marked N

• ground (earth) wire into terminal marked .

6. Push the insert and chuck into the housing (note the raised key and

keyway to ensure correct orientation).

7. Fasten the bushing to the housing using a wrench to a torque of

2.5 Nm (1.8 lb.-ft).

Applying power

See Figure 7. To apply power to the MAC Viper Performance, check that the tilt lock is released, that the base is held securely, and that personal safety will not be put at risk when the lamp strikes and the fixture moves, then set the power on/off switch B to I (On).

Check that the mains power on/off switch B is set to O (Off) before inserting or removing the power input connector at the input socket A, otherwise you may cause arcing at connector terminals that can damage them.

Shutting down power

For optimum lamp life, wait for at least 5 minutes after striking a discharge lamp before shutting down the lamp.

It is also good practise to shut down the lamp a few minutes before shutting down power to the fixture. This gives the fans time to cool the fixture down.

12 MAC Viper Performance Safety and Installation Guide

Page 13

DMX data link

The MAC Viper Performance has 5-pin locking XLR sockets for DMX and RDM input and output (see Figure 7 on page 12). The default pin-out on both sockets is:

• pin 1 to shield

• pin 2 to data 1 cold (-)

• pin 3 to data 1 hot (+).

Pins 4 and 5 are not used by the fixture but are bridged between input and output sockets. These pins can therefore be used as a pass-through connection for an additional data signal if required.

Tips for reliable data transmission

• Use shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 devices: standard microphone cable cannot transmit control data reliably over long runs. 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.

• To split the data link into branches, use one of the splitter-amplifiers available from Martin (see under “Accessories” in the product specifications given at the end of this document.)

• Do not overload the link. Up to 32 devices may be connected on a serial link.

• Install a DMX termination plug on the last fixture on the link.

Connecting the data link

1. Connect the DMX data output from the controller to the MAC Viper Performance’s data input (male XLR)

socket.

2. Run the data link from the MAC Viper Performance’s data output (female XLR) socket to the data input

of the next fixture.

3. Terminate the data link by connecting a 120 Ohm, 0.25 Watt resistor between the data 1 hot (+) and cold

(-) conductors (and between data 2 hot and cold if used) at the data output of the last fixture on the link. If a splitter is used, terminate each branch of the link.

Service and maintenance

Warning! Read “Safety Information” on page 4 before servicing the MAC Viper Performance.

Warning! Disconnect the fixture from AC mains power and allow to cool for at least 30 minutes minutes before handling. Do not stare into the light output. Be prepared for the fixture to light and move suddenly when connected to power.

Warning! The MAC Viper Performance™ contains components that are accessible and live at high voltage while the fixture is connected to power and that remain under tension for 30 minutes after power is disconnected. Only technicians who are authorized by Martin™ and who have access to the Martin™ service documentation for the MAC Viper Performance are permitted to open the base and yoke of the fixture. The user may open the MAC Viper Performance’s head only to carry out the service operations described in this section, following the warnings and instructions provided. Refer any service operation not described in this manual or the product’s User Guide to a qualified service technician.

Important! Excessive dust, smoke fluid, and particle buildup degrades performance, causes overheating and will damage the fixture. Damage caused by inadequate cleaning or maintenance is not covered by the product warranty.

The user will need to clean the MAC Viper Performance periodically, The user may also replace gobos, color filters, the iris, the animation wheel and air filters in the head and update the firmware. All other service operations on the MAC Viper Performance must be carried out by Martin Professional™, its approved service agents or trained and qualified personnel using the official Martin™ service documentation for the MAC Viper Performance.

Installation, on-site service and maintenance can be provided worldwide by the Martin Professional Global Service organization and its approved agents, giving owners access to Martin’s expertise and product knowledge in a partnership that will ensure the highest level of performance throughout the product’s lifetime. Please contact your Martin supplier for details.

It is Martin policy to apply the strictest possible calibration procedures and use the best quality materials available to ensure optimum performance and the longest possible component lifetimes. However, optical components are subject to wear and tear over the life of the product, resulting in gradual changes in color over many thousands of hours of use. The extent of wear and tear depends heavily on operating conditions and environment, so it is impossible to specify precisely whether and to what extent performance will be affected. However, you may eventually need to replace optical components if their characteristics are affected by wear and tear after an extended period of use and if you require fixtures to perform within very precise optical and color parameters.

Tilt lock

The tilt position of the head can be locked at 45° for service. See Figure 1 on page 6. Push the lock in towards the yoke in one direction to lock the head and back in from the other side to unlock the head.

Important! Release the tilt lock before applying power to the fixture and before packing the fixture in its

flightcase.

Lamp

The MAC Viper Performance is designed for use with a highly efficient 1000 watt short-arc Osram HTI 1000/PS Lok-it discharge lamp. This lamp has a color temperature of 6000 K, a color rendering index greater than 85 and an average service life of 750 hours. Do not use any lamp that is not approved by Martin™ for the MAC Viper Performance.

Warning! Installing a lamp that is not approved may create a safety hazard or damage the fixture!

Lamp power is automatically reduced to approximately 800 W after 10 seconds when the dimmer/shutter is closed in order to reduce cooling fan activity and power consumption. The lamp returns to 1000 W as soon as the dimmer/shutter is opened.

LOCKED

Figure 8: Lamp access

Figure 9: Lamp lock / unlock

Monitor lamp hours using the resettable LAMP ON TIME counter in the INFORMATION control menu. To reduce the risk of explosion, replace the lamp when it reaches the limit of its average service life, i.e. when usage reaches 750 hours. Never exceed the lamp’s average service life by more than 10%. Replace the lamp immediately if it is deformed or in any way defective.

For maximum service life:

• Avoid powering the lamp off until it has warmed up for at least 5 minutes.

• Before shutting down power completely, shut down the lamp but leave power applied for a few minutes so that cooling fans can prevent any momentary lamp temperature increase caused by heat from surrounding components.

Lamp replacement

Warning! Wear safety glasses and gloves when handling lamps. The clear lamp bulb is integral with the ceramic lamp base. Do not try to separate the bulb from the base.

Important! The lamp can be a stiff fit in its holder. Twist the lamp base a full 45° clockwise when installing to ensure that the lamp contacts are fully engaged.

Replacement lamps are available from Martin™ by ordering P/N 97010346.

The clear bulb must be perfectly clean. Do not touch it with your fingers. Clean the lamp with an alcohol wipe and polish it with a clean, dry lint-free cloth before installing, particularly if you accidentally touch the bulb.

To replace the lamp:

1. Shut down the lamp but leave power applied for at least

30 minutes so that cooling fans continue to run, then disconnect the fixture from power.

2. Tilt the head so that the text around the lamp access

cover is facing the right way up and the cover is easy to reach.

3. See Figure 8. Release the Torx 20 cover screw A and

open the cover.

4. See Figure 9. Grasp the ceramic lamp base, twist it 45°

counterclockwise to release it, then remove the lamp gently from the fixture.

5. See Figure 10. Hold the replacement lamp so that the external wire B is facing downwards, towards the

bottom of the head. Line up the key C in the lamp base with the keyway D in the lamp socket and line up the contacts E on the lamp base with the slots F in the lampholder. Slide the lamp into the fixture until the contacts are fully inserted in the slots, then twist the lamp base a full 45° clockwise until it locks into position with a noticeable click. The lamp is a stiff fit, and trying to strike a lamp that is not correctly installed can cause damage that is not covered by the product warranty, so ensure that the lamp is correctly locked into position.

7. After installing a new lamp, reset the LAMP ON TIME counter in the control menu.

Lamp adjustment

Warning! Adjust the lamp with the fixture cool. The fixture may become hot during adjustment, so wear heat-resistant safety gloves.

As well as giving uneven projection, a significant hot-spot in the beam will focus extra heat onto optical components and may cause damage that is not covered by the product warranty.

After fitting a new lamp, adjustment may be required to obtain an even beam. To adjust the lamp:

1. If the fixture has been in use, shut down the lamp but leave power applied to the fixture. Allow the fixture

to cool for at least 30 minutes. If the fixture is powered off, apply power and allow the fixture to reset.

2. Set zoom to wide so

that it is easier to see any unevenness in the projection. Strike the lamp and open the shutter.

3. Aim the fixture at an

even surface and make sure that no further commands can be sent by DMX.

4. See Figure 11. Turn

the three Torx 20 lamp adjustment screws A, B and C to obtain the most even beam.

Cleaning

Regular cleaning is very important for fixture life and performance. Buildup of dust, dirt, smoke particles, fog fluid residues, etc. degrades the fixture’s light output and cooling ability.

Cleaning schedules for lighting fixtures vary greatly depending on the operating environment. It is therefore impossible to specify precise cleaning intervals for the MAC Viper Performance. Cooling fans suck in airborne dust and smoke particles, and in extreme cases fixtures may require cleaning after surprisingly few hours of operation. Environmental factors that may result in a need for frequent cleaning include:

• Use of smoke or fog machines.

• High airflow rates (near air conditioning vents, for example).

• Presence of cigarette smoke.

• Airborne dust (from stage effects, building structures and fittings or the natural environment at outdoor events, for example).

If one or more of these factors is present, inspect fixtures within their first few hours of operation to see whether cleaning is necessary. Check again at frequent intervals. This procedure will allow you to assess cleaning requirements in your particular situation. If in doubt, consult your Martin dealer about a suitable maintenance schedule.

Work in a clean, well lit area. Use gentle pressure only when cleaning. Do not use any product that contains abrasives. Do not use solvents on plastic or painted surfaces. Use care when cleaning optical components: the coated surfaces are fragile and easily scratched.

To clean the head:

1. Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for 30 minutes.

2. Remove the head covers (see “Access to the head” on page 17).

3. Vacuum or gently blow away dust and loose particles inside the head with compressed air.

4. Carefully clean the optical components, but note that special precautions apply to the gobos (see “Gobo

handling and storage” on page 23). Remove smoke and other residues with cotton swabs or unscented lens tissues moistened with isopropyl alcohol. A commercial glass cleaner may be used, but residues must be removed with distilled water. Clean with a slow circular motion from center to edge. Dry with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth or low-pressure compressed air. Remove stuck particles with an unscented tissue or cotton swab moistened with glass cleaner or distilled water. Do not rub the surface: lift the particles off with a soft repeated press.

5. Remove dust from fans and air vents with a soft brush, cotton swab, vacuum, or compressed air.

6. If you have finished work on the head, reinstall the head covers as described in “Access to the head” on

page 17 and release the tilt lock before reapplying power.

Replacing the head air filters

There are two disposable air filters in the MAC Viper Performance head. They must be replaced as a pair when they become dirty.

The replacement procedure is the same for each air filter:

1. Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for 30 minutes.

2. Remove the head covers (see “Access to the head” on page 17).

3. See Figure 16. Loosen the two captive Torx 25 screws A at the front end of the filter housing until the

screws turn freely.

4. Disconnect the air filter fan connector B.

5. Slide the filter housing towards the front of the fixture to release the rear of the housing, then lift the

housing away from the head.

6. Press down on the two clips C until they release and you can open the filter housing.

7. Remove the old air filter element from the filter housing and put the new element into position with the

ribs in the element running from top to bottom (in the same direction as the louvers in the filter housing cover) as shown in Figure 17.

8. See Figure 16. Hook the side of

the cover opposite the clips C into the housing and then press the cover onto the housing, checking that the clips snap into the housing and that the cover is located correctly with no gaps where air could bypass the filter.

9. Reconnect the air filter fan

connector B.

10. Hook the rear end of the air

filter housing into position in the head by sliding it towards the rear of the fixture. Then hold the front of the housing in position against the front of the head while you fasten the two Torx 25 screws A.

11. If you have finished work on the head, reinstall the head covers as described in “Access to the head” on

page 17 and release the tilt lock before reapplying power.

Lubrication

Figure 18: Prism removal and installation

The MAC Viper Performance does not require lubrication under normal circumstances. The slides for the zoom and focus lens cars are lubricated with a long-lasting teflon-based grease that can be reapplied by a Martin service partner if necessary.

Replacing optical components

Optical components have fragile coatings and are exposed to very high temperatures. Use only genuine Martin™ parts. Handle and store components with care. Wear cotton gloves while handling them and keep them perfectly clean to reduce the risk of heat damage.

Replacing the prism

The MAC Viper Performance is supplied with a four-facet rotating prism as standard. To replace the prism:

1. Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for 30 minutes.

2. Remove the head covers, position the head with the front glass angled downwards and the top side

facing upwards, and apply the tilt lock (see “Access to the head” on page 17).

3. See Figure 18. Slide the zoom/focus car A to its forward limit.

4. Holding the prismholder B by its teeth, pull it out of its clip C.

5. When installing a prism, note that the prismholder B is marked with a hole E, and the blue prism

actuation cog D has a magnet F embedded in it. Slide the prismholder B into its clip C so that the hole E lines up with the magnet F when the teeth in the prismholder and actuation cog mesh with each other.

6. Check that the prismholder is held securely.

7. If no further service work is to be carried out, reinstall the head covers as described in “Access to the

head” on page 17 and release the tilt lock before reapplying power.

Gobos: general

abc

The MAC Viper Performance uses specially designed borosilicate 3.3 gobos with a heavy matted aluminum coating that require particularly careful handling and storage. The MAC Viper Performance User Guide available for download from www.martin.com gives names, illustrations and part numbers of the gobos installed as standard.

The use of metal gobos in the MAC Viper Performance is not recommended. Do not use gobos with dark coatings on any side, as these will absorb heat – either directly from the lamp or

reflected back from other gobos and optical components – and will not be durable.

Gobo orientation

The orientations shown in Figure 19 are correct in most cases, but consult your Martin dealer or gobo supplier if you are in any doubt about the orientation of a specific gobo type.

Coated Glass Gobos

The heavy matted aluminum coated borosilicate gobos in the MAC Viper Performance are factory-installed with the more reflective sides facing towards the lamp. Replacement gobos must also be installed with more reflective sides facing the lamp in order to avoid heat damage.

More reflective side towards lamp

To minimize the risk of gobo overheating and damage, turn the more reflective side of a coated gobo towards the lamp.

Less reflective side away from lamp

The less reflective side of a coated gobo will absorb less heat if it faces away from the lamp.

Textured Glass Gobos

Textured side towards lamp Smooth side away from lamp

Textured glass gobos in the MAC Viper Performance sit most squarely in the gobo wheel with the textured side towards the lamp. If in doubt, consult your Martin dealer or gobo supplier.

Gobo handling and storage

Figure 20: Goboholder magnet

Figure 21: Gobo removal

1. Store all gobos in a dust-free environment with approx. 50% humidity.

2. Always use clean gloves when handling gobos.

3. Avoid touching the other gobos when taking out a gobo from a rack: the sharp edge of one gobo can

scratch the others.

4. Clean the coated side of gobos with dust and oil-free compressed air only.

5. Clean the uncoated side of gobos with photographic quality lens-cleaner and optics cleaning tissues.

Use a repeated dabbing action rather than a rubbing action.

6. Avoid scratching coated and uncoated sides.

7. Never place a gobo with the coated side face-down on any surface.

8. Mount the gobo with the non-reflective coating facing towards the front of the fixture, away from the

lamp.

Replacing rotating gobos

Important! A gobo can fall out of its holder if its spring is inserted the wrong way round.

Do not lubricate gobo bearings: excess grease can cause loss of step.

Correct gobo orientation is critical. Read the guidelines in Figure 19 carefully before installing a gobo.

The MAC Viper Performance has a rotating gobo wheel with rotating texture/breakup gobos. Gobos are interchangeable.

To replace a gobo:

1. Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for 30 minutes.

2. Remove the head covers, position the head with the front glass angled downwards and the top side

facing upwards, and apply the tilt lock (see “Access to the head” on page 17).

3. Remove the framing module from the head (see “Access to

the framing module” on page 18).

4. Turn the gobo wheel until the gobo you want to replace is

accessible from the side of the module.

5. See Figure 20. Rotate the goboholder until its magnet

(arrowed) lines up with a reference point that you choose on the module frame. Remove and insert any gobos you replace one by one, with the goboholder magnets lined up with your reference point, and avoid rotating the gobo wheel while a gobo is removed. This will keep gobos in the orientation they were designed for and avoid the need to reprogram the controller because a gobo orientation has changed during service.

6. See Figure 21. Grasp the goboholder by its edge

and pull it out of its clip to remove it from the wheel.

7. Note that fused glass gobos such as

Limbo/Crystal are glued into the goboholder and cannot be removed from it. If you need to replace a fused glass gobo, you must replace the entire goboholder. Other types of glass gobo are held in their holders by springs and can be removed from the holders as described below.

Service and maintenance 23

8. See Figure 22, With a small screwdriver or similar, unhook the

Figure 22: Goboholder

Figure 23: Gobo alignment marks

Figure 24: Gobo clip

end of the gobo spring furthest from the gobo and pull out the spring. Drop the gobo out of the holder onto a clean, soft surface.

9. Insert the new gobo in the holder with that must face towards

the lamp – the more reflective side – facing upwards towards the spring (see Figure 22 and Figure 19).

10. See Figure 23. Rotate the gobo in its holder if necessary to

line up the alignment marks (arrowed) in the gobo and goboholder.

11. Insert the spring with the narrow end against the gobo, as

shown in Figure 22. To identify the narrow end, press the spring flat: the narrow end is on the inside. Push the wide end of the spring in under the lip of the holder.

12. Check that the gobo is seated flush against the holder. Press

the spring as flat as possible against the back of the gobo.

13. See Figure 24. Push the goboholder back into its clip so that

the jaws A of the clip engage in the groove B around the goboholder and the magnet lines up with your reference point. Rotate the goboholder with a finger to check that it is correctly held in the clip and that the goboholder teeth mesh correctly in the teeth of the actuation cog in the center of the gobo wheel.

14. If necessary, continue replacing gobos one by one as

described above.

15. If no further service work is to be carried out, reinstall the

module and head covers as described in “Access to the framing module” on page 18 and “Access to the head” on page 17. Release the tilt lock before reapplying power.

Replacing color filters

The MAC Viper Performance has seven dichroic color filters. See the MAC Viper Performance User Guide available for download from www.martin.com for names and part numbers.

Use only genuine Martin™ color filters. Handle and store filters with care. Wear cotton gloves while handling them and keep them perfectly clean.

To replace a color filter:

1. Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for 30 minutes.

2. Remove the head covers, position the head with the front glass angled downwards and the top side

facing upwards, and apply the tilt lock (see “Access to the head” on page 17).

3. Remove the framing module from the head (see “Access to the framing module” on page 18).

4. See Figure 25. Turn the color wheel A until the filter that you want to replace B is accessible. Put on

clean cotton gloves and hold the filter near its outer edge between finger and thumb. Push the outer

24 MAC Viper Performance Safety and Installation Guide

Page 25

edge of the filter up and away from the color wheel slightly to release it, then pull the filter carefully out of

Figure 25: Color filter removal

Figure 26: Color filter installation

its clip C and remove it. Store the filter resting on a clean, soft surface or in a filter rack.

5. To insert a color filter, put on cotton gloves and turn the

filter so that its coated side will face towards the lamp (in the MAC Viper Performance this means coated side towards the wheel A and away from the clip C). To find out which side of the filter is coated, hold an object up against the glass. There will be a small gap between the object and its reflection on the non-coated side.

6. See Figure 25. Slide the filter into its clip C in the center

of the color wheel. See Figure 26. Make sure that the outer edge of the filter locates under the lip (arrowed) on the edge of the color wheel so that the filter is held securely.

7. If necessary, continue replacing filters one by one as described above.

8. If no further service work is to be carried out, reinstall the module and head covers as described in

“Access to the framing module” on page 18 and “Access to the head” on page 17. Release the tilt lock before reapplying power.

Replacing the animation wheel

The MAC Viper Performance has a motorized animation wheel that provides gobo animation effects. See the MAC Viper Performance User Guide available for download from www.martin.com for full details.

To replace the animation wheel:

1. Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for 30 minutes.

2. Remove the head covers, position the head with the front glass angled downwards and the top side

facing upwards, and apply the tilt lock (see “Access to the head” on page 17).

3. Remove the framing module from the head (see “Access to the framing module” on page 18).

Service and maintenance 25

4. See Figure 27. The gobo animation wheel has a magnetic hub with a slot A for the key B in the

Figure 27: Animation wheel key

Figure 28: Removing the animation wheel

animation wheel.

5. See Figure 28. For easiest access, rotate cog C in the animation wheel positioning system to move the

animation wheel out as close as possible to the edge of the module. Using a flat-headed screwdriver D, apply gentle pressure to the center of the animation wheel to carefully lever it off its hub and release it. The wheel is delicate. Avoid bending it during removal and storage.

6. To install an animation wheel, check first that the wheel is perfectly flat. Slight warping of the wheel can

be corrected by applying gentle pressure. Then lower the wheel into the module so that its key will line up with the slot in the hub. Place the wheel in position over the hub and apply gentle pressure from a flat-bladed screwdriver as close as possible to the center of the wheel to press the wheel into position. Check that the key in the wheel is engaged in the slot in the hub and that the wheel is held securely. Rotate the wheel with a finger to check that it is seated flat against the hub and that it has not become warped during installation. If necessary, remove, correct any warping and reinstall.

7. If no further service work is to be carried out, reinstall the module and head covers as described in

“Access to the framing module” on page 18 and “Access to the head” on page 17. Release the tilt lock before reapplying power.
