MAC Allure Wash PC User Guide
P3 video
The MAC Allure Wash PC is compliant with the Martin P3™ distributed video system. If you add the fixture
to a P3 installation, the P3 controller will treat the fixture’s seven segments as seven pixels regardless of
which DMX mode the fixture is set to.
P3 control lets you match the color and intensity of MAC Allure Wash PC fixtures precisely and instantly with
other P3 video display fixtures or panels in an installation.
Control priority
The MAC Allure Wash PC auto-senses and responds correctly to whichever control protocol it is receiving:
DMX and/or RDM via standard DMX cable, DMX and/or RDM via Art-Net or streaming ACN over Ethernet
cable, or P3 video.
If the fixture is connected to both DMX and P3 video signals, The P3 DMX channel (channel 21) lets you
determine which signal should take priority. You can also crossfade, which means that you can superimpose
DMX data with variable opacity from 0% to 100% onto the P3 video output that is being displayed on the
fixture’s pixels.
Beam effect (beamshaper)
The beamshaper can be deployed at indexed angles or rotated with variable direction and speed.
Focus and zoom
Adjusting focus lets you vary the sharpness of the projection at different distances.
The MAC Allure Wash PC’s zoom lens varies the focused beam angle from 12° to 36° with the standard lens
installed. Wide zoom angles allow sharp focus on projection surfaces close to the fixture. At narrower zoom
angles, sharp focus is only possible further from the fixture.
Long-range focus can always be set to infinity
Zoom/focus linking
Focus varies with zoom angle, but focus can be linked to zoom so that it automatically adjusts to match
changes in zoom angle.
Linked zoom/focus works within 3 distance ranges: close-, medium- and long-range. The ranges are as
follows (figures are approximate):
• Close (5 - 10 meters / 16.5 - 33 ft.)
• Medium (10 - 20 meters / 33 - 66 ft.)
• Long (20 meters - infinity / 66 ft. -
∞
)
To link zoom and focus, select a distance range using the Fixture Control/Settings DMX channel or
FOCUS

menu. Then adjust focus to obtain the required degree of
sharpness. Linking is now enabled and focus will auto-adjust to match changes in zoom angle.
Pan and tilt
Coarse and fine pan and tilt control are available in both Basic and Extended DMX modes.
Pre-programmed FX
The MAC Allure Wash PC offers a range of pre-programmed effect macros that we simply call FX. See “FX:
pre-programmed effects” on page 26.
The built-in FX give instant access to complex dynamic effects with no need for time-consuming
programming at the controller.
