6. See illustration on right. Avoid dropping cable ties or other items into the fixture. Using scissors or cutting pliers, cut and remove the two cable ties (arrowed). 7. See illustration on right. If you unclipped the top cover safety cable, reattach it so that it will catch the top cover and prevent it from falling.
Transporting the fixture Important! If you need to transport the fixture after you have removed the temporary cable ties that new fixtures are supplied with to protect them during delivery (see point 6. in the previous section), you must open the top cover and install a temporary protection spring inside the fixture. Installing the spring locks the frost car at the back of its movement range so that components are protected from damage caused by movement during transport.

To adjust the aim of the fixture: 1. Set the fixture to a gobo with a sharply defined pattern. You can select the image remotely either via DMX or by using the MANUAL TEST menu in the fixture’s control panel. 2.
AC power Read ’Safety information’ on page 5 before connecting the fixture to AC mains power. Lock out power to the entire installation before working on cables and connections. Electrical installation must be carried out by qualified professionals only. For protection from dangerous electric shock, the fixture must be grounded (earthed). The AC power distribution system must be fitted with current overload and ground-fault (earth- fault) circuit breakers as well as a means to isolate fixtures from power and lock out power during service.

master. Every time the master changes to its next pre-programmed scene, the slave fixtures change to their next pre-programmed scene at the same time. Note the following: • Although scene changes in master and slave fixtures all occur at the same time, scenes do not have to be identical.
• BLACK OUT (default): Fixture blacks out. - If the fixture is set to MASTER and it does not receive a control signal, it will black out until it receives a control signal. - If the fixture is set to SLAVE, it will always black out if it does not receive a control signal. The three options listed above also determine the fixture’s behavior if the fixture is receiving a control signal but that signal is suddenly lost.
Effects Strobe / shutter The strobe / shutter effect provides instant open and blackout as well as variable speed regular and random strobe effects. Electronic dimming Overall intensity can be adjusted 0-100%. 16-bit dimming resolution is available using two DMX channels.
Gobos The fixture contains a rotating gobo wheel with the seven rotating glass gobos shown below installed as standard. The gobo wheel below is viewed from the front glass side (front of the fixture): Rotating gobo wheel Gobo 1: Grass Lines Gobo 5: Ripple Texture Glass Gobo 2: Organic Delight Gobo 6: Lined Effect Glass...

Gobo rings can be ordered in a set of 10 as an accessory from your Martin supplier. Ask for P/N MAR-91611851. The ring must be glued to the gobo using a silicone adhesive sealant that bonds to glass and metals and that is suitable for use in temperatures from -55° C to 200° C continuous operation. See page 38 for instructions on replacing rotating gobos.
Animation effect The gobo animation effect is designed to be combined with a rotating gobo and color filter to create a moving image of flames, grass blowing in the wind, water, etc. Animation effect Adjust the speed and direction of the gobo rotation, the speed and direction of the animation effect and fixture focus to give the most realistic animation.
Prism The fixture has one 4-facet linear rotating and one 3-facet radial rotating prism. Either prism can be deployed to obtain rotating split beam effects. Each prism can be set to an indexed position or rotated with variable speed and direction. Frost The frost filter softens the light output, giving a diffuse beam.
Operation Thermal conditions The Exterior Projection 1000 is designed for use in ambient temperatures between -30° C (-22° F) and 45° C (113° F). For instant wake-up with no warm-up mode, we recommend that you keep power applied constantly in ambient temperatures below 0° C (32° F). If the fixture’s temperature rises above its normal operating range, it regulates its light output in order to protect components from heat damage.

2. See illustration on right. If you unclipped the top cover safety cable, reattach it with its carabiner hook (arrowed) so that it will catch the top cover and prevent it from falling. 3. Place the top cover loosely over the top of the fixture so that air can enter and leave the fixture but debris cannot enter.
Replacing a rotating gobo Gobos are user-replaceable, and you can replace them with custom gobos made to your own design. Gobos 1 – 4 and gobo 7 are printed/coated glass and share the same specifications, but gobos 5 and 6 are textured glass and have different specifications to the others. See ‘Gobos’ on page35. When replacing the textured glass gobos in goboholder 5 and 6 with standard glass gobos, you must use the long spring.
Page 39
2. See illustrations below. Position the alignment mark (arrowed) in each goboholder at a reference point such as the midpoint between the end of the motor mounting plate and multi- connector. Remove and reinstall goboholders with alignment marks in the same position so that you keep gobos in the same orientation..
Page 40
5. See illustration below. Wearing clean gloves, hold the gobo with the dark side facing up. Match up the alignment marks (arrowed) in the gobo and goboholder. Lay the new gobo flat in the goboholder. Gobos 5 and 6 only Gobos 5 and 6 are textured glass and require a thrust washer.
Page 41
2. Hold the goboholder up to the rotating gobo wheel in its original position. Rotate it until the alignment mark in the goboholder lines up with the reference point as shown in Step 3. 3. See illustrations below. Push the goboholder into position, sliding the tongue that sticks out from the goboholder into position (arrowed) behind the gobo activation cog, pressing against the gobowheel.
Installing a glare shield accessory A glare shield is available from Martin as an optional accessory for the Exterior Projection 1000 (see ‘Accessories’ on page 54). The shield reduces stray light and is also recommended to help protect the fixture from damage caused by the sun shining on the front of the fixture. The glare shield can be installed in seconds.
Remote Device Management (RDM) The Exterior Projection 1000 features Remote Device Management (RDM) capability. RDM lets you get information from the fixture and change settings in the fixture remotely over the DMX data link. To communicate with the fixture via RDM, use an RDM-compatible DMX controller. Before you can communicate with fixtures, you must send a scan command (‘Disc Unique Branch’) from the RDM controller to detect the devices on the data link.
