Martin Imager Series, Operator'S Manual

Page: 21 / 84

General operation 21
Profile menu (Pro)
The Profile menu contains options where you can specify if the fixture is:
• Using the IR remote control system and has the IR received installed (option
rCS), or
• Using the IR remote control system and does not have the IR receiver
installed (option rCr), or
• Not using the IR remote system (options d1 or d2). Always specify one of
these when the optional IR remote control system is not in use:
• DMX mode 1 uses 9 channels and does not allow fine adjustment of
movement and effects.
• DMX mode 2 , which is the default, uses 12 channels and allows fine
adjustment of movement and effects.
Stand-alone menu (SA)
The Stand-Alone menu commands can be used to execute scenes in Stand-
Alone mode. See “Programming using the optional infrared remote control”
on page 29 for further information.
Adjustment menu (Adj)
The Adjustment menu ( A d J ) provides manual control for service use.
Personality menu (Per)
The Personality menu sets some basic characteristics, or the personality,
that the fixture has.
Lamp-off and reset
These options enable you to disable the lamp-off and reset commands that
are used on DMX channel 1. This might be useful if you are using a DMX
control device with your Imager, because it reduces the chance of
accidently selecting lamp-off on channel 1 during a show. The default is that
these commands are enabled.
Note that the lamp must be allowed to cool for at least 6 minutes after
turning it off before it can be re-struck. A 6-minute hot-restrike delay is
programmed into the Imager software from the time that the light is
extinguished, or the power is switched off, to ensure that this occurs. If you
attempt to strike the lamp and do not succeed the fixture will reattempt to
strike itself after 6 minutes (and a hot lamp warning/error will appear in the
display), unless you issue the lamp off command. If the fixture fails these
two attempts to strike, the lamp will be assumed to be defective and the LE
(lamp error) message will appear.
