Control panel 13

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 36) are displayed when the MAC 2000 Wash 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].

See “Control menu” on page 32 for a complete list of the menu items.

Note: [Enter] must be pressed and held for a few seconds to enter the utilities menu.

DMX address and protocol setting

The DMX address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used to receive instructions from the controller.

For independent control, each fixture must be assigned its own control channels. Two MAC 2000 Washs 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 19 control channels and provides full basic

control. The 16-bit mode uses 2 additional channels to provide finer 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 Wash provides six options for optimizing movement for different applications.

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

• 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 wheels always take the shortest path between two static

positions or oscillate between outer positions.

TRACKING RESPONSE

The MAC 2000 Wash 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.

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
