Introduction To The Exterior 1200 Wash - Martin Exterior 1200 Wash User Manual

2.2 Introduction to the Exterior 1200
Wash
Thank you for selecting the Exterior 1200 Wash from Martin Architectural. This automated
luminaire combines dynamic architectural lighting effects with extremely bright output in an
aluminum housing designed for permanent outdoor installation. The luminaire uses a Philips
MSD 1200 metal halide discharge lamp with an average lamp life of 3000 hours. An air/air heat
exchanger system ensures effective cooling.
All models feature independently variable 0 - 100% cyan, magenta and yellow (CMY) color
mixing as well as a color wheel with red, green and blue dichroic color filters and a 5600 to
3400 K dichroic color temperature correction (CTC) filter. All models feature full-range
continuous dimming.
The beam angles of Narrow and Medium models can be controlled remotely using a motorized
zoom feature.
The Exterior 1200 Wash is available in the following optical configurations (figures are for one-
tenth peak beam angles, ranges indicate minimum and maximum zoom limits):
• Narrow:
• Medium:
• Wide:
• Very Wide:
All dynamic effects can be controlled using industry-standard DMX intelligent lighting control
technology or run independent or synchronized stand-alone light shows that do not require
external control. Stand-alone light show start and stop times can either be programmed using
the luminaire's onboard clock or triggered by ambient light level within programmed times.
Snoot and barndoors kits are available for all models. When mounted on the front of a
luminaire, snoots and barndoors allow control of both beam shape and glare. A beam shaper
lens, available as an optional accessory for Narrow and Medium models, optically modifies
output to give an elliptical beam.
A permanent CTC filter is also available as an option for all models. The permanent filter allows
precise color matching with for example the Exterior 200 from Martin Architectural.
