Safety information Warning! This product is for professional use only. It is not for household use. This product presents risks of lethal or severe injury due to fire and heat, electric shock, ultraviolet radiation, lamp explosion, and falls. Read this manual before installing or powering the fixture, follow the safety precautions listed below and observe all warnings in this manual and on the fixture.
• Keep all combustible materials (for example fabric, wood, paper) at least 0.1 meters (4 inches) away from the fixture. Keep flammable materials well away from the fixture. • Do not illuminate surfaces within 1 meter (3.3 feet) of the fixture. • Provide a minimum clearance of 0.1 meters (4 inches) around fans and air vents. • Never place filters or other materials over the lens or mirror. • Allow the fixture to cool before handling.
2. I NSTALLATION AC power The Mania SCX600/700 is supplied set up to match local voltage and frequency settings. The factory setting is shown on the serial number label. Warning! For protection from fire and electric shock, the fixture must be grounded (earthed). The power supply must have overload and ground-fault (earth-fault) protection. Check that power cables are undamaged and rated for the current requirements of all connected devices before use.
Installing a cord cap on the power cable The power cable must be fitted with a grounding-type cord cap (earthed mains plug) that matches your AC power distribution system. Consult a qualified electrician if you have any doubts about proper installation. If you need to fit a cord cap, follow the cord cap manufacturer’s instructions, connecting the yellow and green wire to ground (earth), the brown wire to live, and the blue wire to neutral.
2. If using a rigging clamp, ensure that the clamp is undamaged and can bear at least 10 times the fixture’s weight. Bolt the clamp securely to the fixture’s mounting bracket with a grade 8.8 (minimum) M12 bolt and lock nut through the 13 mm hole in the center of the mounting bracket, or as recommended by the clamp manufacturer. 3. If fastening the fixture directly to a mounting surface, ensure that any fasteners used and the mounting surface can bear at least 10 times the fixture’s weight.
exceed 32 fixtures or 500 meters, or to add branches, use an optically isolated amplifier-splitter such as the Martin RS-485 Opto-Splitter (P/N 90758060). Reliable data connection requires suitable cable. Standard microphone cable cannot transmit DMX data reliably over long runs. For best results, use cable with at least one twisted pair specifically designed for RS-485 applications. Your Martin dealer can supply suitable high quality cable in various lengths.
4. Plug a data cable into the OUT socket of the first fixture and the IN socket of the next one. Continue connecting up to 32 fixtures output-toinput. 5. Terminate the link by inserting a male termination plug (P/N 91613017) into the data output of the last fixture. A termination plug is simply an XLR connector with a 120 Ohm, 0.25 W resistor soldered across pins 2 and 3.
3. OPERATION Note: The Mania SCX600/700 is supplied in DMX mode with its DMX address set to 1. If want to operate the fixture without a DMX controller, you need to set the fixture to stand-alone music trig or auto trig mode before use (see “Selecting DMX, music trig or auto trig operating modes” on page 15). Getting started Powering on Once the Mania SCX600/700 is correctly and safely installed, power on at the fixture’s power on/off switch. The fixture will start up and reset.
