RUSH™ MH 7 Hybrid User Manual 15

Page 16

Control data link

A DMX 512 data link is required in order to control the fixture via DMX. The fixture has 3-pin and 5-pin XLR connectors for DMX data input and output.

Up to 32 devices can be linked together on a single daisy chain. The total number of fixtures in one 512-channel DMX universe is limited by the number of DMX channels required by the fixtures. Note that if independent control of a fixture is required, it must have its own DMX channels. Fixtures that are required to behave identically can share the same DMX address and channels. To add more fixtures or groups of fixtures when the above limits are reached, add a DMX universe and/or split the daisy-chained link into branches.

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. The pin-out on all connectors is pin 1 = shield, pin 2 = cold (-), and pin 3 = hot (+). Pins 4 and 5 in the 5-pin XLR connectors are not used in the fixture but are available for possible additional data signals as required by the DMX512-A standard. Standard pin-out is pin 4 = data 2 cold (-) and pin 5 = data 2 hot (+).

To split the link into branches, use an opto-isolated splitter such as the Martin™ DMX 5.3 Splitter. Terminate the link by installing a termination plug in the output socket of the last fixture. The termination plug, which is a male XLR plug with a 120 Ohm, 0.25 Watt resistor soldered between pins 2 and 3, “soaks up” the control signal so it does not reflect and cause interference. If a splitter is used, terminate each branch of the link.

Connecting the data link

To connect the fixture to data:

1. Connect the DMX data output from the controller to the closest fixture’s male XLR DMX input connector.

2. Connect the first fixture’s DMX output to the DMX input of the next fixture and continue connecting fixtures output to input.

3. Terminate the last fixture on the link with a DMX termination plug.

Maintenance

Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before servicing the fixture.

Disconnect the fixture from mains power before cleaning or

Cleaning

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.

External optical lenses must be cleaned periodically to optimize light output. Cleaning schedules for lighting fixtures vary greatly depending on the operating environment. It is therefore impossible to specify precise cleaning intervals for the fixture. 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 100 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.

failing parts, tools or other materials. The user may carry out the service operations described in

this manual. All other service operations must be carried out by an authorized Martin™ service technician. Do not try to repair the fixture yourself, as you may create a safety risk or cause damage that is not covered by the product warranty.

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 Martin™ for details.

Use gentle pressure only when cleaning, and work in a clean, well-lit area. Do not use any product that contains solvents or abrasives, as these can cause surface damage.

To clean the fixture:

1. Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for at least 10 minutes.

2. Vacuum or gently blow away dust and loose particles from the outside of the fixture and the air vents at the back and sides of the head and in the base with low-pressure compressed air.

3. Clean surfaces by wiping gently with a soft, clean lint-free cloth moistened with a weak detergent solution. Do not rub glass surfaces hard: lift particles off with a soft repeated press. Dry with a soft, clean, 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.

4. Check that the fixture is dry before reapplying power.

Replacing gobos
