The latest software and documentation for the MAC 600 (E) NT is available from the Martin Professional web site.
Software installation requires a Martin uploader, such as the MPBB1, prepared with the latest fixture software. The
DMX interface card provided with the Club version of the Martin LightJockey controller also supports software
upload.
To install software with the MPBB1 uploader, normal method
1 Download the latest MAC 600 (E) NT CPU firmware from the Martin web site at http://www.martin.dk. Load
the software into the uploader as described in the MPBB1 manual.
2 Connect the uploader to the fixture as you would a controller.
The data link must be terminated.
Apply power
to the uploader and the fixtures.
3 After the fixture has finished resetting, select
UPLd from the MPBB1 menu and press [ENTER]. Select
dMX and press [ENTER].
4 Wait. The software has been installed when the MPBB1 displays
dONE and the fixtures reset. Turn off and
disconnect the MPBB1.

transmission. Reattempt the upload using backup method I.
