1.
Remove the 4 knurled screws and remove the casing. The lamps can now be installed.
2.
The desired gobos can be selected by turning the gobo wheel.
3.
Replace the casing and tighten the screws.
4.
Set the mains voltage switches (on the opposite end of the unit from the DIP switches) to the
local mains voltage (115/230V).

1.
Connect the RoboZap, or the first unit in the link, to the controller, using the 10 metre XLR cable which
came with the controller.
2.
To interconnect the units in the link you need an XLR-XLR cable e.g. a standard balanced micro-
phone cable. Your local Martin Professional dealer can supply this.
3.
The units should be connected together in an order which gives the minimum cable length. This
order has no influence on the address as far as the controller is concerned.
4.
The termination plug which came with the controller is plugged into the unused XLR socket on
the last unit on the link.
