System installation
Warning! Read “Safety information” on page 5 and “Precautions to avoid damage” on page 10
carefully before installing an Exterior PixLine system.
Warning! Connect the Exterior PixLine only to the devices and using only the Martin® cables
specified in this manual.
Warning! Do not exceed the maximum numbers of devices that can be connected in chains and
maximum cable lengths specified in ”Protection from electric shock” starting on page 5 and in the
manuals of the other devices in the system.
The Exterior PixLine is designed to display either Martin® P3 video or DMX-controlled lighting effects. It
automatically recognizes and responds to either a Martin® P3 or a DMX data signal. The next sections
explain how to create an Exterior PixLine installation to display P3 video data or DMX-controlled lighting
effects.
Installing a P3 system
See Figure 8 for an overview of the elements and layout of a Martin® P3 video display system.
To install a system that displays P3 video on Exterior PixLine fixtures, see the overview in Figure 8 and
follow these directions:
1. Make sure that no devices in the installation can be connected to AC mains power until all installation
work is complete.
2. Read “Safety information” on page 5 and “Precautions to avoid damage” on page 10.
3. Connect Exterior PixLine fixtures together in chains either directly using the fixtures’ cable tails and BBD
connectors or by adding Martin® hybrid cables with BBD connectors (see “Cables” on page 38).
Warning! Do not exceed the maximum total length of fixtures and total cable length per chain given in
“Safety limits for connecting devices” on page 6.
4. Install a blanking cap (see “Cables” on page 38) on the output connector of the last fixture on each chain
to protect from water, dirt etc.
5. Connect each chain of Exterior PixLine fixtures to one of the four 4-pin female XLR hybrid (48 VDC
power + P3 data) outputs on a P3 PowerPort 1500 using a Martin® hybrid 4-pin male XLR to BBD
adapter cable, P/N 91616046 (see Figure 7). Alternatively, connect each chain of Exterior PixLine
fixtures to one of the 4 outputs on a P3 PowerPort 1000 IP.
6. If necessary, add a BBD-to-BBD extension cable between the first fixture and the P3 PowerPort.
Suitable extension cables are available from Martin® in various lengths. See “Cables” on page 38.
7. Create a P3 video data link from a Martin® P3 system controller such as the P3-050, P3-150, P3-300 or
P3-PC to the P3 PowerPort 1500 or P3 PowerPort 1000 IP (see the products’ user manuals for details).
8. It is possible to connect P3 PowerPort devices in daisy-chains in a P3 network, but if you are using
multiple P3 PowerPorts in a fixed installation we recommend that you distribute the P3 signal by
