Introduction Thank you for selecting the MAC 101™, an intelligent lighting fixture from Martin Professional™.
AC power Warning! Read “Safety Information” starting on page 3 before connecting the MAC 101 to AC mains power. Warning! For protection from electric shock, the MAC 101 must be grounded (earthed). The power distribution circuit must be equipped with a fuse or circuit breaker and ground-fault (earth-fault) protection. Warning! The MAC 101 does not have a power on/off switch.
Installing a power input connector on a power cable Housing Insert Chuck To install a Neutrik PowerCon NAC3FCA input connector on a power cable: 1. Slide the bushing over the cable. 2. Slide the white chuck over cables with a diameter (Da) of 5 - 10 mm (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.) from the end of each of the wires. 5.
Data link A DMX 512 data link is required in order to control a MAC 101 via DMX. The MAC 101 has 5-pin XLR connectors for DMX data input and output. 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 MAC 101 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 (+).
Physical installation The MAC 101 can be placed on a horizontal surface such as a stage or clamped to a truss in any orientation using a rigging clamp. Warning! Attach an approved safety cable to one of the safety cable attachment points on the base (see “Fixture overview” on page 6). Check that all surfaces to be illuminated are minimum 200 mm (7.9 ins.) from the fixture, that combustible materials (wood, fabric, paper, etc.) are minimum 100 mm (3.9 in.
5. Secure the fixture against clamp failure with a secondary attachment such as an approved safety cable that is rated for the weight of the fixture using one of the attachment points at the edges of the base (see “Fixture overview” on page 6). Do not use any other part of the fixture as a safety cable attachment point. 6. Check that the head will not collide with other fixtures or objects.
Setup Warning! Read “Safety Information” on page 3 before installing, powering, operating or servicing the MAC 101. Control panel and menu navigation The onboard control panel and backlit graphic display are used to set the MAC 101’s DMX address, configure individual fixture settings (personality), read out data and execute service utilities. See “LEE colors and RGB equivalents” on page 23 for a complete list of menus and commands. Using the control buttons (Enter).
RAW and RGB modes include the same control options as BASIC mode, but they provide 4 extra channels to give RGB control and CTC. See “DMX protocol” on page 21 for details of the DMX commands available in the different modes. Tailoring performance Pan and tilt movement The P/T SPEED settings set the maximum speed of pan and tilt movement. FAST optimizes for speed and SLOW optimizes for smoothness of movement. NORMAL is the default setting and gives a good compromise between these two.
Restoring factory default settings The MAC 101 factory default settings can be restored by applying a FACTORY DEFAULT → LOAD command.
Operation and effects Warning! Read “Safety Information” on page 3 before installing, powering, operating or servicing the MAC 101. This section describes only DMX control features that require particular explanation. See “DMX protocol” on page 21 for a full list of the DMX channels and values required to control the different effects. Pan and tilt The MAC 101’s moving head can be panned through 540° and tilted through 240°. The speed of pan/tilt movement can be adjusted via the control panel.
Service and maintenance Warning! Read “Safety Information” on page 3 before servicing the MAC 101. Warning! Disconnect the fixture from AC mains power and allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before handling. Do not view the light output from less than 8.3 meters (27 ft. 3 inches) without shade 4-5 welding goggles. Be prepared for the fixture to light suddenly if connected to power. Warning! Refer any service operation not described in this user manual to a qualified service technician.
Warning! Disconnect from power and allow to cool before cleaning. 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.
Software upload The MAC 101 is loaded with both software (that can be installed and updated by the user) and firmware (that is internal and accessible to Martin Service and its authorized partners only). Software updates are available from the Martin website and can be installed with a PC and Martin USB Duo DMX Interface box that can upload software to one fixture at a time.
Installing optional diffuser filters A set of eight medium-angle diffuser filters can be ordered from Martin (P/N 91616018) as an optional accessory for the MAC 101. A diffuser filter softens the output from the LEDs and provides a wider beam angle. To install a diffuser filter: 1. Shut down power to the fixture and allow it to cool for at least 10 minutes. 2. Release the Torx screw in the center of the spill ring on the front of the head and lift the spill ring off.
