About the HSI 1200W/S lamp

The MAC 2000 Profile II comes with a OSRAM HSI 1200W/S
discharge lamp installed. This highly-efficient short-arc source
provides an exceptionally stable 6000K color temperature, a
color rendering index greater than 90, and an average life of 750
hours.

The lamp is capable of hot restrike. This feature, howev er, is only
supported by the MAC 2000 Profile II with electronic ballast.

The ends of the lamp have specially-developed keys, shown in
Figure 6, to ensure proper installation. Do not use HSI 1200 W/S
lamps with the non-keyed SFc 10-4 base.

Warning! Installing any other lamp may create a safety

hazard or damage the fixture!

The lamp has an average life of 750 hours. To reduce the risk of
explosion, replace the lamp before usage exceeds 125% of the
average life, i.e., before it exceeds 940 hours. To read lamp hours
from the control panel, please refer to Readouts on page 14.

For optimum performance, avoid turning off the lamp before it
has warmed up fully.

Lamp replacement

Important! Do not touch the quartz bulb with bare fingers.

The lamp can be replaced with either an:

• OSRAM HSI 1200 W/S (Martin P/N 97010304), or a

• Philips MSI 1200 W/S (Martin P/N 97010303)
Both lamps are available from your Martin dealer.

The clear quartz bulb must be clean and free of any oils from
your fingers. Clean the lamp with an alcohol wipe and polish it
with a dry cloth, particularly if you accidentally touch the bulb.

Replacing the lamp

1 Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool. Lock

the head horizontally with the top up.

POWER

WARNING! For protection from electric shock, the fixture must be grounded (earthed). The AC mains

supply shall be fitted with a fuse or circuit breaker and ground-fault protection.

Important! Verify the power supply settings before applying power.

The chapter describes:

• Installing fuses

• Power supply adjustments for the various MAC 2000 Profile II models

• Connection to a power supply (see page 10)

• The reduced power function (see page 10)

Fuses

The MAC 2000 Profile II comes with two:

• 20 AT (time delay) main fuses for use with AC supplies of 100 - 120 volts.

• 15 A main fuses for use with AC supplies of 200 - 250 volts.
Install the appropriate fuses in the holders near the power switch.

Power supply adjustments

The MAC 2000 Profile II (identified as such by the label on the base of the product) comes with an electronic or
magnetic ballast and an auto-sensing, auto-ranging switch-mode power supply. Manual adjustments are not necessary
unless you have the magnetic ballast version.

Magnetic ballast configuration

In magnetic ballast models the ballast must be tapped correctly
for the local AC voltage and frequency. The wrong setting can
cause overheating, damage, and poor performance. The factory
settings are printed on the serial number label.

HANGING THE MAGNETIC BALLAST SETTINGS

1 Disconnect th e fixture from AC power. Remove the rear

base cover as shown in Figure 8.

2 To e xpose the ballast connection block, remo v e the scre ws

from each end of the side plate and tilt it down (Figure 8).

4 Move the brown wire on the ballast connection block to

the position shown Figure 9.

5 Close the base before applying power.

Note: Magnetic ballast models only run on power supplies over 200 volts and in this operating

range the 15 amp main fuses must be installed.

Power connection

Important! Connect the MAC 2000 Profile II directly to AC power. Do not connect it to a dimmer

system; doing so may damage the fixture.

You may need to install a cord cap that fits your supply on the power cable. A 3-prong grounding-type plug must be
installed following the manufacturer’s instructions. The table shows some possible pin identification schemes; if the
pins are not clearly identified, or if you have any doubts about proper installation, consult a qualified electrician.

To apply power, set the power switch on the base to the “I” position.

Reduced power function

The MAC 2000 Profile II has an automatic power reduction function, which reduces the consumption to 700W if the
shutter/dimmer is closed for more than 10 seconds. This not only increases the lamp life, but also further decreases the
overall noise emission of the fixture.

The MAC 2000 Profile II has both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR sockets for DMX input and output. The pin-out on all sockets
is pin 1 to shield, pin 2 to cold (-), and pin 3 to hot (+). There is no connection to pins 4 and 5.

The sockets are wired in parallel: both inputs connect to both outputs. For reliable data transmission and to avoid

damage to the fixture, however, use one input and one output!

Connecting fixtures

• Use shielded twisted-pa ir 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.

• Never use both outputs to split the link. To split the serial link into branches use a splitter such as the Martin
4-Channel Opto-Isolated RS-485 Splitter/Amplifier.

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

• 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.

• Martin fixtures introduced before 1997 have reversed polarity data sockets (pin 2 hot and pin 3 cold). The
socket polarity is labelled. Use a phase-reversing cable between the MAC 2000 Profile II and any Martin

device with reversed polarity.

C

ONNECTING THE DATA LINK

1 Connect the DMX data input from the controller to the MAC 2000 Profile II’s 3-pin or 5-pin input (male)

socket.

2 Using the sockets that match your data cable, connect the output of the fixture closest to the controller to the

input of the next fixture.

3 Insert a male 120 Ω XLR termination plug in the 3-pin or 5-pin output of the last fixture on the link.

IGGING

The MAC 2000 Profile II can be placed on stage or clamped to a truss in any orientation. The Fast-Lock system
enables quick and easy fastening of the clamp brackets in 4 positions as shown Figure 10.

Warning! Always use 2 clamps to rig the fixture. Lock each clamp with both 1/4-turn fasteners. The

fasteners are locked only when turned fully clockwise. Attach an approved safety cable to
the attachment hole in the base. Never use the carrying handles for secondary attachment.

Clamping the fixture to a truss

1 V erify that the rigging clamps (not included) are undamaged and can bear at least 10 times the weight of the

fixture. Verify that the structure can bear at least 10 times the weight of all installed fixtures, clamps, cables,
auxiliary equipment, etc.

2 Bolt each clamp securely to a clamp bracket with an M12 bolt (grade 8.8 or better) and lock nut.
3 Align a clamp with 2 mounting points in the base. Insert the fasteners into the base and tur n both levers a

full 1/4-turn clockwise to lock. Install the second clamp.

4 If the truss can be lowered, fixtures can be clamped on directly from the double flight case. If the fixture must

be lifted, block access under the work area. Working safely from a stable platform, hang the fixture on the
truss with the arrow towards the area to be illuminated. Tighten the rigging clamps.

5 Install a safety wire that can bear at least 10 times the weight of the fixture. The attachment point is

designed to fit a caribiner clamp.

6 Verify that the pan and tilt locks are released. Verify that there are no combustible materials or surfaces to

be illuminated within 1 meter of the fixture, and that there are no flammable materials nearby.

ONTROL PANEL

The LED control panel is used to set the address and personalities, read lamp hours and other information, calibrate
effects, and run a test routine. Most of these functions may be performed remotely via the serial link with the Martin
MP-2 Uploader.

Navigation

The DMX address and any messages (see page 35) are displayed when the MAC 2000 Profile II is turned on. To enter
the menu, press [Menu]. Press [Up] and [Down] to move within the menu. To select a function or submenu, press
[Enter]. To escape a function or menu, press [Menu].

Note: [Enter] must be pressed and held for a few seconds to enter the utilities menu.
See Table 4 on page 29 for a complete list of the menu items.

DMX address and protocol setting

The DMX address, also known as the start channel, is the fi rst channel used to receive instructions from the controller.
For independent control, each fixture must be assigned its own control channels. Two MAC 2000 Profile IIs may share
the same address, however, if identical behavior is desired. Address sharing can be useful for diagnostic purposes and
symmetric control, particularly when combined with the inverse pan and tilt options.

Two DMX protocols, 8-bit and 16-bit, are available. The 8-bit mode uses 20 control channels and provides full basic
control. The 16-bit mode uses 4 additional channels to provide finer gobo and pan/tilt positioning.

Setting the DMX address and protocol

1 Press [Menu] to enter the main menu.
2Press [Up] until

AddR is displayed. Press [Enter]. To snap to channel 1, press [Enter] and [Up]. Scroll to

the desired channel and press [Enter].

3 Select

PSET from the main menu and press [Enter]. Select 8bit or 16bt and press [Enter].

Tailoring performance

Movement

The MAC 2000 Profile II provides options for optimizing movement for different applications.

• The protocol setting (PSET)setting selects 8-bit or finer 16-bit control of pan, tilt, and gobo index.

• The pan and tilt invert (

PATI)menu swaps and/or inverts pan and tilt.

• The pan/tilt speed (

PTSP) menu provides 3 settings: FAST, NORM, and SLOW. NORM is best for most

applications.

FAST provides better performance in applications where speed is most important. SLOW provides the

smoothest movement and is best in long-throw applications with slow movements through narrow angles.

• The studio mode (

STUd) setting optimizes all effects besides pan and tilt for speed or quietness.

• The shortcuts (

SCUT)setting determines whether the color, gobo, and effect wheels always take the shortest path

between two static positions or oscillate between outer positions.

Tracking Response

The MAC 2000 Profile II has a filter algorithm that looks at several position updates in tracking control mode and
calculates the ideal response for smooth movement. Tracking response is adjustable to compensate for variations in
controller performance. In most cases the default settings work well.

14 MAC 2000 Profile II

If tracking mode movement is not satisfactory there are 2 parameters that can be adjusted. The first is selected under

PERS/TRAC/MOdE. The default, MOd1, is the best choice with controllers that calculate intermediate

positions at a steady rate. Begin by selecting the alternative,

MOd2, which is better if the intermediate positions stray

significantly from the line of travel.
The second parameter is the number of position updates used to calculate speed. The level is adjustable between 1 and

10 under

PERS/TRAC/CAL. Increasing the number of samples increases the distance over which speed is

calculated, making movement smoother but less responsive to sudden changes. Experiment for best results.

Display

The display intensity (dINT) setting controls display brightness. The display on/off setting (dISP) determines
whether the display remains on or extinguishes two minutes after the last key-press. To flip the display, press [Up] and
[Down] simultaneously.

Lamp

There are two settings that modify lamp control: Automatic Lamp On (ALON) and DMX Lamp Off (DLoF).
When ALON is off, the lamp remains off until a “lamp on” command is receive d from the contr oller. When ALON is

on, the lamp strikes automatically after the fixture is powered on. When

ALON is set to DMX, the lamp strikes

automatically when the fixture receives DMX data, and it e xtinguishes 15 minutes after DMX data is lost.
When

ALON is set to either ON or DMX, the automatic lamp strike timing is staggered to prevent all lamps from

striking at once. The delay is determined by the fixture address.
If striking lamps from the controller, note that striking many lamps at once may cause a voltage drop large enough to

prevent lamps from striking or trip the main circuit breaker. Avoid this by programming a “lamp on” sequence that
strikes lamps one at a time at 5 second intervals.

Power to the lamp can be turned off from the controller if DMX Lamp Off (

dLOF) is on. If dLOF is off, a DMX

lamp off command is executed only if position 7 is selected on the color wheel and gobo 5 is selected on both gobo
wheels. Be careful: with the magnetic ballast model, it is not possible to restrike the lamp until it has cooled for a few
minutes. (The electronic ballast model provides hot restrike.)

DMX reset

The fixture can be reset from the controller if DMX reset (PERS/dRES) is ON. If DMX reset is OFF, the reset
command can only be executed if position 7 is selected on the color wheel and gobo 5 is sele cted on both gobo wheels.

Custom settings

The custom configuration function allows you to save and recall three sets of fixture settings. The savable settings are
DMX mode, pan/tilt speed, pan/tilt inverse and swap, DMX lamp off and reset, display settings, shortcuts, studio
mode, automatic lamp on, effects feedback, tracking algorithm, and tracking samples.

Readouts

Note: The MP-2 Uploader provides commands to display the time, temperature, and version readouts on the fixture
control panel.

Time

INFO/TIME provides readouts of fixture hours (HRS), lamp hours (L HR), and lamp strikes (L ST). Under

each item is a resettable (

RSET) increment counter and a non-resettable counter for total accumulated hours/strikes

since fabrication (

TOTL). T o reset an increment counter , display it and then press [Up] until it reads 0. (This may also

be done remotely using the MP-2 Uploader.)

Temperature

INFO/TEMP provides readouts of the head, base and lamp temperature in Celsius and Fahrenheit.

Control panel 15

Firmware version

INFO/VER displays the version number of the installed f irmw are. The f irmwa re version is also displayed briefly at

startup.

DMX

The DMXL menu shows the DMX start code (STCO) and DMX values received for each effect.

Service messages

The Service LED on the control panel lights under conditions that require fixture service, and there is a message
describing the service required. To display the message, select

SMSG in the main menu. This item is available only

when the LED is lit. There are two service messages.

Replace lamp is displayed when the lamp counter exceeds 750 hours, which is the rated average life for the

HMI 1200 W/S lamp. The maximum service life is 125% of the average life, or 940 hours.

Fixture overheating is displayed when the head temperature exceeds 120° C (248° F). Overheating is

likely due to dirty air filters, fans, or air vents; incorrect power supply settings, or a defective fan.

Service utilities

Important! Enter must be held for several seconds to access the utilities menu.

Test sequences

TSEQ provides a general test of all effects that can be run without a controller. UTIL/PCBt provides routines

for circuit board testing that are for service use only.

Feedback toggles

An on-the-fly position correction system monitors the color wheel, gobo wheels, gobos, rotating effects, and effect
wheel. If a position error is detected, the shutter closes while the effect resets. This feature can be disabled by turning
effects feedback (

UTIL/EFFb) off.

The automatic pan/tilt position correction system may be temporarily turned off under UTIL/FEbA. The off
setting, however, is not saved and the system will be re-enabled the next time the fixture starts. If the system cannot
correct the pan/tilt position within 10 seconds, feedback is automatically disabled.

Adjustment

The adjustment menu (UTIL/Adj) provides manual control for making mechanical adjustments. See page 34.

Calibration

The calibration menu (UTIL/CAL) provides utilities to define offsets in software that are relative to the
mechanical reset or home positions. This allows you to fine tune optical alignment and achieve uniform performance
between fixtures. Dimmer and zoom are calibrated to defined points. The other effects are calibrated relative to an
arbitrary reference fixture.

Default offset settings may be restored by selecting default offsets (

UTIL/dFOF).

C

ALIBRATING EFFECTS

1 Apply power but do not strike the lamp until zoom has been calibrated.
2 To calibrate zoom, first remove the bottom head cover. Select

UTIL/CAL/ZOOF and press [Enter].

Adjust the offset until the face of the zoom lens plate is flush with the back edge of the focus plate (Figure

12). Press [Enter] to save the setting. Replace the bottom head cover.

16 MAC 2000 Profile II

3 Pan calibration is most useful when multiple fixtures are stacked vertically. To calibrate, set zoom, focus, iris,

and tilt position for easy one-over-the-other comparison and set each fixture to the same pan DMX value.
Select one fixture to be the reference fixture. On the other fixtures, select

UTIL/CAL/P OF and press

[Enter]. Adjust the offset as necessary to align the beam with the reference beam. Press [Enter] to save the
setting.

4 Tilt calibration i s most u seful when multiple fixtures a re arranged hor izontally. To calibrate, set zoom, focus,

iris, and pan position for easy side-by-side comparison and set each fixture to the same tilt DMX value.
Select one fixture to be the reference fixture. On the other fixtures, select

UTIL/CAL/T OF and press

[Enter]. Adjust the offset as necessary to align the beam with the reference beam. Press [Enter] to save the
setting.

5 To calibrate the dimmer, select UTIL/CAL/D OF and press [Enter]. Hold a piece of paper over the

lens. Set the offset to 0 and then increase it until light is clearly projected onto the paper. Press [Enter] to
save the setting. Remove the paper.

6 To calibrate color mixing flags (cyan, magenta, yellow, and color temperature correction), project white

beams with no dimming and position them for easy comparison. On each fixture, including the reference,
select

UTIL/CAL/C OF and press [Enter]. (This adds a defined amount of cyan.) Select one fixture to

be the reference. Adjust the offsets on the other fixtures to match the reference color. Press [Enter] to save
the setting. Repeat for

M OF (magenta), Y OF (yellow), and CTOF (CTC).

7 Focus calibration is useful when two or more fixtures are the same distance from a projection surface. To

calibrate focus, set up all fixtures with the same focus, zoom, dimming, iris, and gobo values. Select a
focussed fixture to be the reference. On the other fixtures, select

UTIL/CAL/FOOF and press [Enter].

Adjust the offset to focus the image. Press [Enter] to sav e the setting.

The color/gobo wheel accepts 1.1 mm thick gobos and color filters. Thinner gobos must be secured with a drop or tw o
of glue. Use a high-temperature silicone adhesive such as Dow Corning’s 732 Multi-Purpose Sealant.

The rotating-gobo wheel positions hold gobos up to 3 mm thick with the gobo retention spring. Gobos thicker than 3
mm must be glued in the holder.

Orientation

Coated gobos are inserted with the coating against the rim of the holder (away from the spring). Textured gobos are
inserted with the smooth side against the spring. This provides the best results when combining rotating gobos.

Image projection size

FFECTS

The MAC 2000 Profile II is co mpatible with USITT DMX512 con trollers. The f ix ture has two DMX operating modes,
8-bit and 16-bit.16-bit mode requires four more DMX channels than 8-bit mode but provides more precise gobo
indexing and pan/tilt positioning. All other functions are identic al. The complete DMX protocol begins on page 25.

Dimming and strobe

The mechanical dimmer/shutter system provides smooth, high-resolution 100 percent dimming, instant open and
blackout, random and variable strobe effects up to 10 Hz, and random and variable pulses in which the dimmer snaps
open and slowly dims or snaps closed and slowly opens.

Color mixing

The color mixing system uses continuous dichroic cyan, magenta, and yellow (CMY) color filters. It is a subtractive
system that removes color from white light. Inserting all three filters results in loss of light: for maximum brightness,
mix 2 colors at a time.

Color temperature correction

The color temperature correction (CTC) system uses a continuous 0 - 178 mireds color filter that lowers the color
temperature from 6000 K to 2900 K.

Random color mixing

Variable speed random color mixing using the CMY filters may be selected at the top of channel 7. When selected,
channels 3 - 5 set the maximum or minimum amount of each color in the mix. Values up to 127 set a minimum
amount: the color is randomly inserted from the selected value up to 100%. Values over 127 set a maximum amount:
the color is inserted from 0% up to the selected value. To use the full range of a color in the random mix, select a
minimum value of 0% or a maximum value of 100%. To exclude a color from the random mix, sel ect a maximum
value of 0%.

Fixed colors and gobos

The color/gobo wheel provides seven slots with four dichroic color f ilt ers and thre e glass gobos. To change the color or
gobo, see Replacing color filters or gobos on page 18.

The wheel can be scrolled, allowing for split color effects, snapped to fixed p o sitions, and continuously rotated in both
directions at different speeds. When the effects speed channel is set from 252 to 255, the dimmer automatically closes
while the color wheel is moving between static positions.

Gobos

Two overlapping gobo wheels provide room for 10 glass gobos. See page 18 to change gobos.
Gobos may be rotated and shaken at varying speeds and indexed to any position. Extremely accurate positioning is

available in 16-bit mode.
For each wheel, the gobo and type of rotation (indexed or continuous, with or without shake) are selected on the

wheel’s Gobo & Function Channel, which also provide commands for continuous wheel rotation. The gobo position
index and rotation speed are selected on its Position/Velocity Channel. In 16-bit mode, the position is further adjusted
on the wheel’s Fine Position Channel.

22 MAC 2000 Profile II

Effect wheel

The effect wheel provides a variable frost f ilter and two rotating slots that house a beam shaper an d a three-fa cet prism.
The position and velocity of the rotating slots are selected on the effect wheel’s Position / Velocity Channel.

Iris

The iris closes down to 15 percent of its full-open diameter with high, 200-step resolution. The Iris Channel also
provides random and variable speed pulsating iris ef fects.

Focus and zoom

The focus lens focusses the beam from approximately 2 meters (6.5 feet) to infinity. The zoom lens widens the beam
from approximately 10° at full spot to 28° at full flood.

Pan and tilt

The yoke pans 540° and the head tilts 267°. For maximum positioning accuracy, select 16-bit mode.
The pan/tilt speed (fast, norm, or slow) may be selected on the pan/tilt speed channel. Setting the pan/tilt spee d chan nel

to “blackout” causes the shutter to black out the light while the head is moving.

Speed control

There are two ways to control the speed at which effects move from one static position to another. These are known as
tracking control and vector control and are selected on the Pan/Tilt Speed and Effect Speed Channels. These channels
are independent so you may, for example, combine a vector control pan movement with a tracking control color fade.

In tracking mode, speed is determined by the cross-fade time. The controller continuously sends small position
changes that the fixture “tracks.” To enable tracking mode, se t the relevant speed channel to a tracking value. Note that
in addition to enabling tracking control, some tracking values also provide overrides of the menu settings.

In vector mode, speed is set directly on a speed channel. The cross-fade time must be 0. Vector control provides a way
to set speed on controllers that do not have programmable fade times and results in smooth move ment re gardless of the
cross-fade time or the controller’s processing power.

To open the iris slowly in:

• Tracking mode, for example, you program a scene with the iris fully closed and a second scene with the iris fully open.
Then you set a cross-fade time between the two scenes of, say, 10 seconds. The controller gradually changes the iris
position value from 199 (closed) to 0 (open).

• Vector mode, you program the iris closed and open as before. Then you set the cross-fade time to 0 and program a slow
speed, in the second scene, on the Effect Speed Channel.

Routine maintenance 23

R

OUTINE MAINTENANCE

The MAC 2000 Profile II requires routine cleaning. The schedule depends heavily on the operating environment;
please consult a Martin service technician for recommendations. Refer all service not described here to a qualified
Martin technician.

Important! Excessive dust, smoke fluid, and particulate buildup degrades performance and causes

overheating and damage to the fixture that is not covered by the warranty.

Warning! Disconnect the fixture from power before removing any cover.

Cleaning

Use care when cleaning optical components and work in a clean, well lit area. The coated surfaces are fragile and
easily scratched. Do not use solvents that can damage plastic or painted surfaces.

Inspect the air filters regularly and clean before they become clogged. Replace the air filters with new ones when
replacing the lamp.

To maintain adequate cooling, dust must be cleaned from the fans and air vents periodically.

Cleaning optical components

1 Disconnect the fixtur e from power and allow the components to cool completely. Remove the head cover.
2 Vacuum or gently blow away dust and loose particles with compressed air.
3 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.

4 Remove smoke and other residues with cotton swabs or unscented 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 and lint-free cloth or compressed air.

Cleaning the fan and air vents

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

Cleaning or replacing the air filters

1 Disconnect th e fixture from power. On each side of the head, remove the 2 screws that hold the side cover

using a Torx-20 screwdriver. Slide the cover forward to remove. Lift the filter off of the cover.

2 Clean the fi lters with a vacuum or compressed air, or replace them. If they are saturated with smoke fluid,

etcetera, soak them in warm soapy water and blot dry.

3 Place the filters on the covers and replace the covers.

RST (Reset) ... the fixture is indexing effects at startup. Wait for reset to complete.

SRST (Serial reset)

... the fixture has received a reset command
from the controller.

Wait for reset to complete. Set
PERS/dRES to off to prevent accidental
reset commands.

LERR (Lamp error)

... the lamp doesn’t ignite within 10 minutes of
receiving the ‘Lamp ON’ command. Likely
reasons are a missing or defective lamp, or
insufficient AC voltage.

Check the lamp. Check that the voltage

supply .

MERR (Memory error) ...the EEPROM memory cannot be read.

Contact Martin service personnel for
assistance.

ShER (Short error)

... the fixture detects the lamp is ON but no
