MAC Allure Wash PC User Guide

Fixture information readouts

The following fixture information can be called up in the display:

POWER ON TIME

 provides two counters:

- The 

TOTAL 

counter is not user-resettable and displays total hours powered on since manufacture.

- The 

RESETTABLE 

counter is user-resettable and displays the number of hours the fixture has been 

powered on since the counter was last reset.

POWER ON CYCLES

 also provides two counters:

- The 

TOTAL 

counter is not user-resettable and displays the total number of power on/off cycles since 

manufacture.

- The 

RESETTABLE 

counter is user-resettable and displays the number of power on/off cycles since the 

counter was last reset.

SW VERSION 

displays the currently installed firmware (fixture software) version.

RDM UID 

displays the fixture’s factory-set unique ID for identification in RDM systems.

FAN SPEEDS

 provides separate status readouts from the fixture’s cooling fans.

TEMPERATURES

 provides separate PCB temperature readouts. You can choose to see the current 

readout or the minimum and maximum temperature levels since the fixture was last powered on.

DMX signal monitoring

The MAC Allure Wash PC provides data on the DMX signal it is receiving in the 

DMX LIVE

 menu. This 

information can be useful for troubleshooting control problems. 

RATE

 displays the DMX refresh rate in packets per second. Values lower than 10 or higher than 44 may 

result in erratic performance, especially when using tracking control.     

QUALITY

 displays the quality of the received DMX data as a percentage of usable packets from the data 

received. Values much below 100 indicate interference, poor connections, or other problems with the 
serial data link that are the most common cause of control problems.      

START CODE 

displays the DMX start code. Packets with a start code other than 0 may cause irregular 

performance. 

The remaining options under 

DMX LIVE

 display the DMX values in a range from 0 - 255 that are being 

received on each channel. The DMX channels displayed depend on whether the fixture is in Basic or 
Extended DMX mode.

Test sequences

The 

TEST 

menu lets you test all the fixture’s effects, test LED effects only, test mechanical effects only or 

test pan and tilt only. If you are going to run a test, be prepared for the head to move without warning and be 
prepared for the fixture to light up suddenly.

To run a test:

• In the TEST menu, scroll to TEST ALL, TEST LEDS, TEST EFFECTS or TEST PAN/TILT and press 

Enter.

• Scroll to the item you want to test and press Enter to start a test sequence for that item.

• Press Menu to stop the test sequence.

Manual control

The 

MANUAL CONTROL

 menu lets you reset the MAC Allure Wash PC and operate the fixture without a 

DMX controller. To execute commands in the 

MANUAL CONTROL

 menu, select a menu item for the effect 

that you want to control, then enter a value from 0 to 255 to apply a command. The menu items and values 
correspond to the commands listed in the DMX protocol on page 20.
