Installing color filters and gobos
Warning! Read the “Safety Information” section starting on page 3 before installing, powering,
operating or servicing the Exterior 400 Image Projector.
Since many customers prefer to choose color filters and gobos themselves or use custom-made items, the
Exterior 400 Image Projector is supplied without filters and gobos. A range of dichroic color filters and gobos
for the Exterior 400 Image Projector is available from Martin and can be ordered separately. If you wish to
use custom-made optical components, please consult your Martin supplier. Custom-made components
must meet the same specifications as Martin items, or their use will invalidate the product warranty.
It is easiest to install filters and gobos before the fixture is physically installed. To install color filters and
gobos, you must remove the front cover and effects module for access.
Filter and gobo care
Important! Filters and gobos are sensitive components that are exposed to extreme conditions.
Avoid contaminating them with dirt and grease, especially from your fingers, and follow these
precautions:
1. Use clean, dry, lint-free gloves when handling optical parts such as filters and gobos.
2. To give maximum protection from heat, install optical components with the shiny side facing the light
source and the darker side facing away from the light source.
3. Protect optical parts from scratches. Avoid touching components together: the sharp edge of one item
can scratch another.
4. Do not place an optical components with its coated side face-down on any surface.
5. If cleaning is necessary, use cotton swabs or lens cleaning tissues moistened with 99% isopropyl
alcohol or photographic quality lens cleaning fluid. Do not use standard domestic tissues, as these can
cause micro-scratches and dust. Wipe surfaces gently with a slow circular motion from center to edge.
Remove any stuck particles with a cotton swab moistened with lens cleaner or distilled water. Do not rub
the surface: lift particles off with a soft repeated press. Rinse off any residues with distilled water, then
dry components with low-pressure compressed air or a clean, soft, lint-free cloth.
6. Store all optical components in a dust-free environment with approx. 50% humidity.
