Control panel shortcuts
Two shortcuts are available in the control panel before you enter the menus:
• Pressing and holding the MENU button for 2 seconds opens a shortcut menu that lets you reset the fixture
or rotate the display.
• Pressing the UP and DOWN arrows at the same time rotates the display through 180°.
DMX address setting
The DMX address, also known as the start channel, is the first channel used to receive instructions from the
controller. For independent control, each fixture must be assigned its own control channels. If two Atomic
3000 LED fixtures share the same address, they will behave identically. Address sharing can be useful for
diagnostic purposes and symmetric control.
The DMX address is configured using the
DMX ADDRESS
menu in the control panel.
The highest address that you can select is automatically limited to make sure that enough channels are
available for the fixture – taking into account the mode that it is set to – within the 512 channels available in
one DMX universe.
DMX modes
The Atomic 3000 LED gives you a choice of DMX control modes in the
CONTROL MODE
menu. Your
choice of mode depends on how many features you want to control and how many DMX channels you have
available. “DMX protocol” on page 27 gives full details of the commands available in the different DMX
modes.
The modes available are:
3-channel DMX mode
3-channel mode offers control of the main effects of the Atomic 3000 LED only: high-power strobe on the
Beam LEDs with adjustable flash intensity, duration and rate.
You can obtain a continuous blinder effect by increasing both flash duration and flash rate until duration
exceeds the time available for a flash at the rate you set.
4-channel DMX mode
4-channel mode offers the same control as 3-channel mode plus basic pre-programmed effects: ramp
up/down, random strobe, a lightning effect and spikes.
Note that the 3-channel and 4-channel DMX modes in the Atomic 3000 LED are consistent with the DMX
modes in the original xenon-tube based Martin Atomic 3000 DMX™.
Extended DMX mode
Extended mode offers the same control as 4-channel mode plus control of the Aura LEDs. Both RGB color
control and color presets are available for the Aura. Electronic ‘shutter’ and strobe effects plus overall Aura
dimming control are also available.
Extended mode also includes a fixture control channel that allows fixture settings to be configured via DMX.
Finally, a range of pre-programmed FX is available. FX are effect sequences with adjustable parameters.
The sequences repeat in cycles and can be synchronized across multiple fixtures. A synchronization offset
can be set so that multiple fixtures start their effect sequences at specific points in the cycle.
Fixture ID
The Atomic 3000 LED lets you set a four-digit ID number to ease identification of the fixtures in an
installation. When a fixture is powered on for the first time, it displays its DMX address by default. As soon
as you set an ID number other than
0 in FIXTURE ID , the Atomic 3000 LED will display this ID number by
default, and indicate FIXTURE ID in the display.
