Exterior Projection Pro Compact User Manual, Rev. A

Fixture setup

Warning! Read ‘Safety information’ in the Safety and Installation Manual

included at the end of this User Manual before operating the fixture.

Setup using RDM

The Exterior Projector Pro Compact is compatible with RDM (Remote Device Management). Using an

RDM-compliant DMX controller, you can communicate with all the fixtures on a data link without

needing to access the fixture’s control panels or connect to each fixture individually. RDM lets you set

the DMX addresses of all the fixtures on the link, carry out basic fixture configuration and retrieve

basic fixture data.

Before you can communicate with fixtures, you will need to send a ‘Device Discovery / Scan’

command from the RDM controller to detect the devices on the data link. You can then send a ‘Get

Supported Parameters’ RDM command to retrieve a list of the Parameter IDs or messages supported

by the fixture.

Setup using Martin Companion

Martin Companion consists of a hardware USB/DMX interface that is available from Martin suppliers

and a Windows application that is available for download free of charge from www.martin.com. To

program and manage fixtures, connect a Martin Companion hardware interface to the DMX link, then

use a USB cable to connect a PC running the Martin Companion application to the Martin Companion

hardware interface.

Martin Companion lets you set up fixtures, program standalone operation and retrieve information from

fixtures using an intuitive graphic interface. We recommend the use of Martin Companion because of

its user-friendly interface and advanced programming options.

Setting a DMX address

Available using RDM and Martin Companion

The Exterior Projection Pro Compact fixture receives instructions from a DMX controller using 13 or 14

DMX channels, depending on which DMX mode the fixture is set to. The fixture’s DMX address, also

known as the start channel, is the first of these channels. If a fixture that requires 14 DMX channels

has its DMX address set to 1, for example, then it uses channels 1 to 14. The next fixture can have its

DMX address set to 15, the next fixture to 29 and so on until all the 512 channels in one DMX universe

are allocated.

For independent control of fixtures, you must give each fixture its own DMX address so that each

fixture has its own control channels. However, if you want a group of fixtures of the same type to

always behave identically, you can give all the fixtures the same DMX address so that they all use the

same DMX control channels.

You can set a fixture’s DMX address by sending commands from an RDM-compliant DMX controller.
