Magnetic Switch For Testing And Status - Martin Pro Compact Sicherheits- Und Installationshandbuch

Magnetic switch for testing and status

See photos on right and
below. The fixture has a
magnetic switch on the
front of the head indicated
by a magnet icon
(arrowed). You activate the
switch by 'swiping' past it
with a magnet such as the
Martin Magnetic Multi-Tool
accessory.
The switch lets you check
fixture status and focus the
fixture without needing a
controller connected.
Swiping has the functions shown in the table below when the fixture is connected to DMX:
Swipe Function
Swipe 1 Fixture displays status by lighting up blue or green:
• Blue = Power applied but fixture not receiving DMX.
• Green = Power applied and fixture receiving DMX.
Swipe 2 Fixture goes to open white, narrow zoom, focus set to 15 m projection distance.
Swipe 3 Fixture goes to open white, medium zoom, focus set to 8 m projection distance.
Swipe 4 Fixture goes to open white, wide zoom, focus set to 5 m projection distance.
Swipe 5 Fixture goes to blackout. If you swipe again within 30 seconds, the fixture returns to
Swipe 1 and restarts the sequence of swipes.
If at any point you do not swipe for 30 seconds, the fixture returns to normal DMX operation.
If the fixture is not connected to DMX there is no 30 second timeout in Swipes 1 to 4 – you need to
swipe until Swipe 5 or cycle power off/on to exit the status/test sequence.
If the fixture is not connected to DMX when you begin swiping but you connect it to DMX while swiping
is active, the fixture immediately starts normal DMX operation.
