Setup and Powering Up
USB
The Martin M-Touch does not have a separate power connector. It draws power
from the connected computer via USB.
If you use a USB hub to connect the Martin M-Touch to a PC, it must be
powered
type. If you use an
unpowered
USB hub, the Martin M-Touch will fail to connect to
the PC.
When the Martin M-Touch is connected to a PC running M-PC software for the first
time, a driver will be installed on the PC. As soon as the driver is loaded and
initialized, the M-Touch is ready to be used.
DMX
Connect some fixtures to the DMX port of the Martin M-Touch controller.
Use only cable that is certified for DMX. Do not use microphone cable or other cable
types, as unsuitable cable impedance may cause signal disruption.
Use a 5-pin male DMX plug on the M-Touch side.
Always use DMX termination on the last fixture on the DMX link.
Damage to the controller due to faulty DMX wiring is not covered under warranty.
