• The exterior of the fixture can get very hot. Allow the fixture to cool for at least 5 minutes before handling. • Do not modify the fixture or install other than genuine Martin parts. • Do not operate the fixture if the ambient temperature (T ) exceeds 40°...
RANSPORTATION Important! Release the transport locks before operating the fixture. Included items The MAC 2000 Wash is shipped in a cardboard box or in a 1 or 2 unit flight case that contains the following items. • User manual • 2 x 20 A main fuses (for use with 100-130 V local power supply) •...
Double flight case Unpacking 1 Open the flight case and pull the drawer all the way out. 2 Release the head (tilt) transport lock. 3 Install rigging hardware as described on page 11. 4 With one person on each side, lift the fixture out of the flight case.
Power supply The MAC 2000 Wash is shipped configured for 200 - 250 V at 50/60 Hz, but can be manually switched to accept either 100 - 130 V or 200 - 250 V power supplies.
Install the appropriate fuses in the holders near the power switch. Power connection Important! Connect the MAC 2000 Wash 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.
Important! Never connect more than 1 data input and 1 data output. The MAC 2000 Wash 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.
IGGING The MAC 2000 Wash 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 6. Figure 6: Clamp bracket positions Warning! Always use 2 clamps to rig the fixture.
Navigation The DMX address and any messages (see page 41) 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].
If tracking mode movement is not satisfactory there are 2 parameters that can be adjusted. The first is selected under P E R S / T R A C / M O d E . The default, M O d 1 , is the best choice with controllers that calculate intermediate positions at a steady rate.
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 ( UT I L/ d FO F Calibrating effects 1 Apply power and strike the lamp. MAC 2000 Wash...

FFECTS The MAC 2000 Wash is compatible with USITT DMX512 controllers. The fixture has two DMX operating modes, 8-bit and 16-bit.16-bit mode requires two more DMX channels than 8-bit mode but provides more precise pan/tilt positioning. All other functions are identical. See “DMX protocol” on page 29.
We have done this to cover the possibility that you rig and begin programming your MAC 2000 Wash and add barndoors to it later. If the DMX channels were not already assigned, you would have to re-patch your console and therefore would lose any programming already completed.

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 movement regardless of the cross-fade time or the controller’s processing power.

PTICS This chapter describes the elements of the optical path and changes that can be made to them. It covers the: • Color wheel and filters, below • Front lenses, on page 21 • Aperture rings, on page 22 • Optional dimmer wheel, on page 22 Color wheels The following is a view of the color wheels as seen from the lamp.

8 Replace the fixture cover and apply power. Changing the front lens The MAC 2000 Wash has a Fresnel lens fitted as standard, and is also supplied with a PC lens, and a super-wide-angle lens. Note that when using the Fresnel lens the 50 mm (2 in) aperture ring provides the highest light output.
Changing the aperture ring The MAC 2000 Wash comes factory fitted with a 50 mm (2 in) aperture ring (identified by 5 small holes), and 3 optional rings: • 30 mm (1.2 in) - identified by 3 small holes • 40 mm (1.6 in) - identified by 4 small holes •...

The dimmer wheel will be automatically detected by the MAC 2000 Wash when the fixture is powered on/reset. When the dimmer wheel is installed, the DMX channel 2 (Intensity) must be maintained at 100%.
Disconnect the fixture from power before removing any cover. The lamp The MAC 2000 Wash comes with a double-ended lamp installed. This is one of two models: • Up to the middle of 2004 the lamp will be an OSRAM HMI 1200 W/S discharge lamp.
Replacing the lamp Important! Do not touch the quartz bulb with bare fingers. Replacement lamps are available from your Martin dealer. Please order: • OSRAM HMI 1200 W/S • Philips MSI 1200 The clear quartz bulb must be clean and free of any oils from your fingers.
4 Repeat step 2. Cleaning The MAC 2000 Wash requires routine cleaning. The schedule depends heavily on the operating environment; please consult a Martin service technician for recommendations. Important! Excessive dust, smoke fluid, and particle buildup degrades performance, leads to overheating and causes damage to the fixture that is not covered by the warranty.
