 ERA 700 Performance IP Safety and Installation Manual Rev. C 

15 

You need the following in order to install firmware: 

 

A Windows PC running the latest version of the Martin Companion software suite that is available for 
download from the Martin website at www.martin.com. 

 

The latest ERA 700 Performance IP firmware files (Martin Companion automatically downloads these 
from the Martin fixture firmware cloud when you run it on a PC that is connected to the Internet). 

 

A Martin Companion Cable USB-DMX hardware interface (available from your Martin supplier). Note 
that you can install new firmware in multiple fixtures at the same time using the Martin Companion 
Cable. 

To install the ERA 700 Performance IP firmware using a Martin Companion Cable: 

1.  Apply power to the ERA 700 Performance 

IP fixture(s) and allow it to boot. 

2. 

Connect the Martin Companion Cable’s USB connector to a USB port on your PC. Connect the Martin 
Companion Cable’s XLR connector to either the fixture’s DMX IN connector or the DMX link. 

3.  Start the PC and launch Martin Companion. Check that the Martin Companion application correctly 

detects the Martin Companion Cable (a green dot should appear next to 

USB Connected

 in the top 

right-hand corner of the window). 

4.  Locate the latest ERA 700 Performance 

IP firmware in Martin Companion’s 

Firmware

 window.  

5.  Start the firmware update by clicking 

Update Firmware

 in Martin Companion. Do not disconnect the 

Martin Companion Cable or power off the fixture(s) until the upload is complete and the fixture(s) has 
successfully rebooted.  

6.  If you are updating multiple fixtures over a DMX link, check that they have all rebooted correctly. 

Service and repairs 

There are no user-serviceable parts inside the fixture. Do not open the housing. The LED light source is 
not user-replaceable. 

Refer any service or repair operation not described in this manual to an authorized Martin service 
technician. Do not try to carry out such an operation yourself, as doing so may present a health or safety 
risk. It may also cause damage or malfunction, and it may void your product warranty.   

Installation, on-site service and maintenance can be provided worldwide by the Martin Professional Global 
Service organization and its approved agents, giving owners access to Martin’s expertise and product 
knowledge in a partnership that will ensure the h

ighest level of performance throughout the product’s 

lifetime. Please contact your Martin supplier for details.
