The installed firmware version number is displayed by the LEDs on power up (see
“The LEDs and fixture operating status” on page 17).
Firmware is installed using a Martin uploader or a 4064 DMX interface for the
Martin LightJockey controller. The procedure is found in the MP-2 user manual and
the Martin Software Uploader online help file.

The following are required in order to install software.
• The FiberSource CMY150 update file, available for download from the User

• The Martin Software Uploader program, version 4.0 or later, available for download
from the Support Area of the Martin web site.
• A Martin MP-2 Uploader connected to a Windows 95/98/ME/2000 PC, or a
LightJockey Controller with a DMX Interface card.
