Appears if...
... automatic protocol detection is
enabled but the protocol (Martin/DMX)
cannot be determined because there is
no control data.
.... the lamp doesn't ignite within 10 min-
utes of receiving the 'Lamp ON' com-
mand. Likely reasons are a missing or
defective lamp, or insufficient AC voltage.
...the EEPROM memory cannot be read.
...a software upload is not successful
... there is no communication between
the control module and motherboard.
This readout appears briefly when
switching on the fixture.
... the fixture detects that the lamp is ON
but no 'Lamp ON' command has been
received. This can occur if the lamp
relays are stuck in the ON position or if
the lamp-power feedback circuit has
failed. You can still operate the fixture but
may not be able to remotely switch off
the lamp.
... you attempt to strike the lamp within 8
minutes after having switched it off. The
fixture will store the 'Lamp ON' instruc-
tion and strike the lamp once the 8 min-
utes have elapsed.
...there is a malfunction in the base or
head temperature sensing circuit.
...pan (
FbEp
), tilt (
FbET
) or both (
feedback circuits are malfunctioning. It
will still be possible to operate the fixture,
though it goes into a "safe" mode where
maximum speed is reduced, thus pre-
venting the fixture from losing track of its
home position (losing step).
...pan and/or tilt indexing circuit is mal-
functioning. The fixture will, after the
time-out, establish a mechanical stop,
and continue to work normally.
...the magnetic-indexing circuit is mal-
functioning (e.g. sensor defective or
magnet missing). After the time-out, the
effect in question will stop in a random
position.

What to do
•
Verify that the controller is
sending and the serial link is
properly connected.
•
Check the lamp and check that
the mains setting of the fixture
matches the mains supply.
•
Contact Martin service person-
nel for assistance.
•
Upload software again, see
page 19.
•
Check fuses on motherboard
and replace accordingly.
•
Check that ribbon cable
between control module and
motherboard is connected
properly.
