Mounting And Operating The Barndoor Unit; Before Starting - Martin MAC 2000 WASH BARNDOORS User Manual

OUNTING AND OPERATING THE
BARNDOOR UNIT
The barndoor unit is designed to be mounted on a MAC 2000 Wash fixture.

Before starting

The electric connection socket for the barndoor accessory was reversed on some MAC 2000 Washes
before S/N 4001816001 (you can find the serial number of your MAC 2000 Wash on the serial number label
underneath the base). Although the socket is coded, the barn door plug can be forced in backwards.
Damage to the electronics will occur if power is applied with the connection reversed.
To avoid damaging the barndoor´s electronics, check the socket´s orientation before installing and operating
the barndoors. The orientation can be checked by examining the triangles in the middle of the socket. When
installed correctly, the tips of the triangles point IN towards the lens as shown here.
If the triangles point away from the lens, you can contact your Martin Dealer and have them perform the
modification, or you can do it yourself:
1 Lock the head in the horizontal position with the top-side up.
2 Remove the left-front head side cover.
3 Loosen, but do not remove, the top screw for the connection socket.
4 Remove the bottom screw.
5 Work the socket free and turn it 180 degrees.
6 Place the u-shaped bracket on the bottom of the socket.
7 Position the socket in the top u-bracket and fasten.
8 Verify that the socket is squarely aligned and the triangles point in.
9 Replace the head side cover.
