Read this manual before installing, powering or servicing the fixture. Follow the safety precautions and observe all warnings in this manual and printed on the fixture. The latest version of this manual is available for download from the Exterior Wash 100, 110 and 120 pages of the Martin®...

Protection from eye injury Do not look directly into the product’s light output. Do not look at the light output with magnifiers, telescopes, binoculars or similar optical instruments that may concentrate the light output. Ensure that persons are not looking directly into the front of the fixture when the product lights up suddenly.
Page 8
At a distance of less than 2.1m (6.9 ft.) from the fixture, the light output can potentially cause eye or skin injury before an exposed person’s natural aversion responses (blink reflex and reaction to skin discomfort) can protect them. At distances greater than 2.1 m (6.9 ft.), potential eye and skin injury hazards from the light output are normally prevented by natural aversion reflexes.
Introduction This user manual covers the following Exterior Wash 100 Series lighting fixtures from Martin®: ● Exterior Wash 100 with individual red, green, blue, and white LEDs optimized for long-throw applications, ● Exterior Wash 110 with premixed quad-color LEDs optimized for superior color mixing ●...
Physical installation Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 5 before installing the fixture. Contact your Martin supplier for assistance if you have any questions about how to install this product safely. Fixture location Exterior Wash 100 Series fixtures are intended for outdoor use. With an IP rating of 66, they are dust tight and able to withstand powerful water jets, but they are not submersible.
Referring to the illustration below, fasten the center of the yoke with a 12 mm (1/2 inch) shaft diameter bolt in the center hole A. Then use two bolts with 8 mm (5/16 inch) shaft diameter passing through the curved slots B to anchor the fixture.
Installing a diffuser Optional diffuser lenses are available from Martin to modify the beam width (see table below and ‘Accessories’ on page 35 for details). The diffuser is held in place either by the included trim ring or, if installed, by a snoot or honeycomb louver accessory. Located close to the edge of the diffuser is a marking that gives the diffuser’s nominal beam angle and indicates which side of the diffuser must face outwards (see Figure 3).
Installing a honeycomb louver Honeycomb louver accessories that reduce lateral light spill and improve visual comfort are available from Martin in two versions: one for Exterior Wash 100 and 120 fixtures, and one for Exterior Wash 110 fixtures (see ‘Accessories’ on page 35). If you install a louver over a diffuser lens, you do not need to use the trim ring shown at C in Figure 4 on page 12 because the louver will hold the diffuser securely.
Installing a snoot The optional snoot for Exterior Wash 100 Series fixtures can be installed with or without a diffuser lens (see earlier in this chapter). To install a snoot: Shut down power to the fixture and allow it to cool. If required, install a diffuser lens as described earlier in this chapter.
AC power Warning! Read “Safety Information” on page 5 before attempting to install the fixture. 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.
Check that all installation work is completed and carry out appropriate tests and safety checks before applying power. Installing a temporary power plug It is possible to install a power plug on the power cable for temporary use (such as setting up a fixture before installation, for example) only.
Control data link A DMX512 data link is required in order to control the fixture via DMX (and manage fixtures via RDM, if used). Your Martin supplier will be happy to help if you need advice or assistance in planning the link. Follow these guidelines when creating a DMX data link: ●...

Setup Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ on page 5 before operating the fixture. This section explains the fixture settings and utilities that the user has access to via the control panel. Settings are retained when the fixture is powered off. A full map of the control menu including default settings can be found on page 28.
Selecting DMX mode in the Exterior Wash 100 and 110 You can set the DMX control mode from the control panel or by RDM. To set the Exterior Wash 100 or Exterior Wash 110 DMX mode from the control panel: Press and hold the MENU button to access the control menu.
Press MENU to select the next scene to modify. When done editing scenes, press MENU again to return to the PROGRAM SHOW menu. To modify scene transitions, select FADE TIME and press ENTER. Press UP or DOWN to select a fade time from 0 to 120 seconds.
Page 22
In host/client operation, one fixture running a standalone show – the ’host’ fixture –sends ‘fade’ and ’wait’ signals to the other fixtures running standalone shows – the ’client’ fixtures – so that scene change times in client fixtures are synchronized with the scene change times in the host. Every time the host changes to its next pre-programmed scene, the client fixtures change to their next pre-programmed scene at the same time.
Page 23
Dimmer curve You can select from four options for controlling the intensity of the fixture’s light output when you are using the dimming DMX channel: ● OPTICALLY LINEAR: dimming appears linear as DMX values change. ● SQUARE LAW: dimming control is finer at low levels and coarser at high levels. ●...
If the fixture is set to HOST and it does not receive a control signal, the fixture will execute the scenes in its pre-programmed standalone show (see ‘Programming a standalone show’ on page 20). It will also send a signal to any fixtures that are connected to it and set to CLIENT instructing them to run their standalone shows.
Page 25
Before you can communicate with fixtures, you will need to send a Scan or Discovery command from your RDM controller to detect the devices on the data link. Once communication is established, many RDM controllers will show a list of the features available in the fixtures connected to them. Martin ®...

DMX protocol Exterior Wash 100 and Exterior Wash 110 Exterior Wash 100 and 110 fixtures have four DMX control modes. See ‘DMX settings’ on page 19 for full details. RGBW uncalibrated mode RGBW uncalibrated mode provides individual intensity control of each color. Output is not calibrated. Fixtures are set to this mode by default.
Exterior Wash 120 DMX control in the Exterior Wash 120 gives individual control of the warm and cold white LEDs on channels 1 and 2. Channel 3 gives color temperature control from warm to cold at maximum output intensity. When set to a level above 26, channel 3 overrides channels 1 and 2. Channel Value Function...
