Protection from electric shock Ensure that the fixture is electrically connected to ground (earth). Disconnect the fixture from AC power when not in use. Do not open the fixture or remove any cover. Refer any service operation not described in this manual to an authorized Martin Service partner. Shut down power to the entire installation at the main power distribution board and lock out power before carrying out any installation or maintenance work.

Protection from burns and fire Do not operate the fixture if the ambient temperature (Ta) exceeds 40° C (104° F). The surface of the fixture can reach up to 55° C (131° F) if the fixture is operated at the maximum permitted ambient temperature. Allow the fixture to cool for at least 5 minutes before handling.

If the safety cable attachment point becomes deformed, do not suspend the fixture. Have the fixture repaired by an authorized Martin service partner. Ensure that any accessories such as gel frames, gobo holders are securely fastened. Block access below the work area and work from a stable platform whenever installing, setting, adjusting, or cleaning the fixture.
The Martin ELP WW IP can be controlled using any DMX-compliant controller and can be remotely configured by RDM. It also features stand-alone operation with capacity for up to 20 scenes.
Physical installation Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 5 before installing the fixture. Warning! The safety and suitability of lifting equipment, installation location, anchoring method, mounting hardware and electrical installation are the responsibility of the installer. All local safety regulations and legal requirements must be observed when installing and connecting the fixture.
Mounting the fixture on a truss The fixture can be clamped to a truss or similar rigging structure in any orientation. Use a suitable rigging clamp such as a G-clamp or a half-coupler clamp (see illustration on right) fastened to the mounting yoke. To clamp the fixture to a truss: 1.
Changing the lens tube Four different lens tubes with fixed beam angles of 19°, 26°, 36° or 50° are available for the fixture. Two zoom lens tubes with either 15°-30° or 25°-50° zoom ranges are also available. All lens tubes are available in black or white finish.
AC power Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 5 before installing the fixture. For protection from electric shock, the fixture must be grounded (earthed). The power distribution circuit must be equipped with a fuse or circuit breaker and ground-fault (earth-fault) protection. If you want to connect fixtures to power in a daisy-chain, use correctly dimensioned cables (see ‘Linking fixtures to power in a chain’...
Page 15
If you install a power plug on a 12 AWG / 2.5 mm power input cable, install a grounding type (earthed) plug with integral cable grip that is rated minimum 16 A, 250 V. Power relay cables If you connect fixtures to power in a daisy-chain, we recommend that you use the 16 amp rated power relay cables available from Martin (see ‘Accessories’...
Control data Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 5 before installing the fixture. Keep all connectors sealed with their rubber caps when not in use. Use only IP65-rated connectors when making data connections to the fixture. A DMX 512 data link is required in order to control the fixture via DMX. The fixture has 5-pin XLR connectors for DMX data input and output.
Fixture Setup This section explains the fixture characteristics you can set that determine how it can be controlled and will behave. You choose the settings using the menus available from the control panel, and they are retained even when the fixture is powered off. Options can also be set over the DMX line using RDM from a suitable controller, see “Setting options by RDM”...
Fast focus mode If you need to focus the fixture but there is nobody to operate the lighting console, you can quickly turn the fixture on in “Fast Focus mode” using the control panel. Hold down the ENTER button for 5 seconds and the fixture will come on at full brightness in open white for 60 seconds, allowing you to set the focus.

Dimming curves Four dimming modes are available: LINEAR The increase in light intensity appears to be linear as DMX value is increased. SQUARE LAW light intensity control is finer at low levels and coarser at high levels. INV SQ LAW (Inverse square law) light intensity control is coarser at low levels and finer at high levels.
Display This option allows you to set some parameters for the display screen. Select DISPLAY from the PERSONALITY menu and press ENTER to confirm. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to select: DISPLAY SLEEP – Use the UP and DOWN buttons to select display sleep time, settings are ON (Display permanently on), 2 MINUTES, 5 MINUTES or 10 MINUTES ...

Calibration From the SERVICE menu you can select CALIBRATION. This menu allows you to adjust the overall brightness of the fixture to match with other fixtures. The fixture is calibrated in the factory but over time the brightness of the LED emitters will gradually reduce, so this function can be useful if you need to match a new fixture with older ones.
Setting options by RDM You can remotely configure the fixture over the DMX line using a suitable RDM-compatible controller that is connected to the installation via a DMX data link. A full list of the RDM functions that the ELP fixture supports is given at the end of this chapter. These functions are generally referred to using the more specific term ‘PIDs’...
Effects This section describes the effects provided by the ELP WW IP fixture. See ‘DMX protocol’ on page 28 for a full list of the DMX channels and values required to control the different effects. Dimming Overall intensity can be precisely adjusted from 0 to 100% using 16-bit coarse and fine control. In 1Ch or 2Ch mode the control is 8-bit.
Use of gobos and irises The fixture will accept an A-size or B-size goboholder or an iris (items not included with the fixture) in the gobo/accessory gate. There is a sliding cover over the gate to prevent light spill and retain the gobo holder in the fixture.
Service and maintenance Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 6 before servicing the fixture. Refer any service operation not described in this user manual to a qualified service technician. Excessive dust, smoke fluid, and particle buildup degrades performance, causes overheating and will damage the fixture. Damage caused by inadequate cleaning or maintenance is not covered by the product warranty.
