  • Page 4: Introduction And Safety

    S a f e t y p r e c a u t i o n s The Exterior 600 is not for domestic use. It presents potential risks due to electric shock, heat and ultraviolet radia- tion burns, lamp explosion, falls, high-intensity light, and fire. A thorough understanding of the dangers, genuine con- cern for safety, and attention to detail are required to prevent accidents.

    Tighten the Allen screws with a torque of 3 N.m (2.2 Ft-Lbs). With this torque, the seal will be compressed by about one-third. Tilt the rear section into position and replace the long bolt and lock nut. Exterior 600...
  • Page 7: Ac Power Connection

    A C P O W E R C O N N E C T I O N The Exterior 600 is available with a power supply for operation at 200/230/245 V, 50 Hz and 208/227 V, 60 Hz; and with a special transformer for operation at 277 V, 60 Hz. This section describes how to tap the power supply for the local AC voltage and frequency and how to connect the Exterior 600 to AC power.
  • Page 8 277 V see label Make sure the Exterior 600 is isolated from AC power. Remove the 10 Allen screws from the rear cover plate. Pull off the plate and seal. Locate the BROWN wire that connects the mains filter to the transformer. Move this wire to the transformer terminal labelled for the desired setting, 230 or 277 V.
  • Page 9: Wiring The Mains Lead

    Consult a qualified electrician if the Exterior 600 is to be connected directly to building wiring. There shall be a switch in the circuit to turn power off when the fixture is not in use or is being serviced.
  • Page 10: Data Connection

    This section describes how to connect fixtures to a controller and other devices, and how to terminate the data link. For data connection, the Exterior 600 has a dual 1.8 meter (5.9 ft.) 24 AWG cable with locking 3-pin XLR connectors.
  • Page 11: Terminating The Link

    Te r m i n a t i n g t h e l i n k Link termination is achieved by inserting a 120 ohm resistor across the signal + (hot) and signal - (cold) wires; it is important for trouble-free communication. If a splitter is used, terminate each branch of the link. The easiest way to terminate the link is to insert a male termination plug into the data output cable of the last fixture.
  • Page 12: Installation

    L o c a t i o n a n d o r i e n t a t i o n The Exterior 600 may be installed outdoors, in any orientation. It shall be located at least 1 meter (39 in.) away from the surface to be illuminated and any combustible materials.

    Otherwise, if you can apply power only to the fixture you want to set and you can turn off all others, use all-fixtures mode: only the Exterior 600 that is powered on will be set.
  • Page 14: Setting Address And Mode

    The fixture address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used to receive instructions from the controller. The Exterior 600 requires 8 channels in DMX mode 1 and 9 channels in DMX mode 2. It uses 2 channels in Martin mode.
  • Page 15: Setting Personalities

    Once programmed, scenes are executed using the Martin MC-X remote control. The MC-X, which sends DMX com- mands with a special start-code on channel 1, also has functions to blackout the light and to engage the Exterior 600’s stand-alone mode. Please refer to the MC-X user manual for information about executing scenes.
