Control panel 11

ONTROL

PANEL

The LED control panel allows you to set user options and read fixture information. User settings may be

changed remotely via the serial link with the Martin MP-2 Uploader.

Menu navigation

The DMX address and any status messages (see page 37) are displayed when the MAC 550 Profile is

turned on. To enter the menu, press [Menu]. Press [Up] and [Down] to move within the menu. To select a

function or submenu, press [Enter]. To escape a function or menu, press [Menu]. See Table 2 on page 32

for a complete list of the menu items.

Note: [Enter] must be pressed and held for a few seconds to enter the utilities menu.

DMX address and protocol

The DMX address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used to receive instructions from the

controller. For independent control, each fixture must be assigned its own control channels. Two MAC 550

Profiles may share the same address, however, if identical behavior is desired. Address sharing can be

useful for diagnostic purposes and symmetric control, particularly when combined with the inverse pan and

tilt options.

Depending on the selected DMX mode, the MAC 550 Profile requires 21 or 27 DMX channels. The basic

mode uses 21 channels and provides coarse control of all effects plus fine control of gobo rotation, pan, and

tilt. The extended mode uses 27 channels and provides the basic mode features plus fine control of the

dimmer, color wheels, iris, focus, and zoom.

Note: From software version 2.0, DMX addressing is limited to channels 1-492 (in basic mode) and 1-487

(in extended mode). This makes it impossible to set the DMX address so high that you are left without

enough control channels for the fixture.

To set DMX address and protocol

1. Press [Menu] to enter the main menu.

2. Press [Up] until

AddR is displayed. Press [Enter]. To snap to channel 1, press [Enter] and [Up]. Scroll

to the desired channel and press [Enter].

3. Select

PSET from the main menu and press [Enter]. Select 16BT for basic mode, or 16EX for

extended mode. Press [Enter].

Tailoring performance

Movement

The MAC 550 Profile provides several options for optimizing movement for different applications.

• The protocol setting (

PSET)setting selects the basic (16BT) or extended (16EX) control mode.

Extended mode provides finer position control of the dimmer, color wheels, iris, focus lens, and zoom lens

than the basic mode.

• The pan and tilt invert (

PATI)menu swaps and/or inverts pan and tilt.

• The pan/tilt speed (

PTSP) menu provides 3 settings: FAST, NORM, and SLOW. NORM is best for

most applications. FAST provides better performance in applications where speed is most important.

SLOW provides the smoothest movement and is best in long-throw applications with slow movements

through narrow angles.

• The studio mode (

STUd) setting optimizes all effects besides pan and tilt for quietness or speed.
