Warning! Do not exceed the maximum permitted number of luminaires connected to one Easypix Power unit, i.e. 24 Easypix 300 luminaires or 6 Easypix 1200 luminaires or any mixture of Easypix 300 and Easypix 1200 luminalres that is maximum 7.2 meters in length.

The Easypix system consists of:

  1. The Easypix Power that controls luminaires in response to a DMX signal from a controller such as the Martin Light Fox™. The Easypix Power also stores stand-alone programs that luminaires can display without the need for a DMX controller.

  2. Easypix 300 and Easypix 1200 luminaires.

AC power

MARTIN Easypix - AC power - 1

DANGER! Read "Safety Information" on page 3 before attempting to install this product. Lock out power to the entire installation before working on cables and connections or removing any cover.

Warning! Electrical installation must be carried out by qualified professionals only.

MARTIN Easypix - AC power - 2

Warning! The electrical equipment and cable used to supply the Easypix system with power must be in perfect condition, be adequately dimensioned for current requirements and respect maximum cable run lengths.

Warning! For protection from dangerous electric shock, the Easypix Power must be grounded (earthed). The AC power distribution system must be fitted with current overload and ground-fault (earth-fault) circuit breakers as well as a means to isolate the Easypix Power from power and lock out power during service.

Important! Do not connect the Easypix system to an electrical dimmer system. Doing so can damage the electronics.

The Easypix lighting system is supplied with AC power via the Easypix Power.

If you require help in planning or dimensioning the power distribution system, please contact your Martin supplier for assistance.

If there is a break or cut at any point in a cable (for example at a connection point), and if this is exposed to water, moisture can be drawn up the inside of the cable due to the vacuum effect of temperature fluctuations during operation.

The Easypix Power adapts automatically to AC mains power at 100 – 240 V nominal, 50 or 60 Hz. Do not connect to power at any other voltage or frequency.

The Easypix Power is protected by a 5.0 amp slow-blow primary fuse located on the Easypix Power. See "Fuse replacement" on page 35 for details of changing fuses. See "Specifications" on page 39 for details of fuse rating and typical current.

The Easypix 300 and Easypix 1200 are protected by an electronic circuit-breaker in the extender/splitter. Incorrect system configuration will cause an automatic luminaire power off. The circuit-breaker will

Connecting to power

The Easypix Power is supplied with an IEC power cable ready for connection to a single-phase 3-wire (live, neutral, ground/earth) power distribution system at 100-120/200-240 VAC nominal, 50/60 Hz.

Details of standard US and EU conductor identification systems are given in Table 1.

Table 1: Conductor identification

MARTIN Easypix - Connecting to power - 1

Important! Check that all installation work is completed and carry out appropriate tests and safety checks before applying power.

Power plug

If you decide to fit the supplied power cable tail with a plug that is suitable for your AC mains power outlets, install a grounding-type (earthed) plug that is rated 5 A minimum, following the plug manufacturer's instructions.

Table 1 shows some possible pin identification schemes; if pins are not clearly identified, or if you have any doubts about proper installation, consult a qualified electrician.

The Easypix Power must be connected via a control data link for DMX controller or synchronized (master/slave) operation. The following considerations must be taken into account when planning the data link:

  • Use RS-485 data cable for the data link. RS-485 cable has low capacitance and a characteristic impedance of 85 to 150 Ohms. It is electrically shielded and has at least 1 twisted pair of conductors.
  • The minimum recommended data cable wire size is 0.25 mm ^2 (24 AWG) for runs up to 300 meters (1000 ft.) and 0.32 mm ^2 (22 AWG) for runs up 500 meters (1640 ft.) from the DMX controller to Easypix Power devices. An optically isolated amplifier-splitter such as the Martin ^TM RS-485 Opto-Splitter ^TM (P/N 90758060) must be used to extend a data link beyond these limits.
  • CAT 5e network cable is suitable for the control data link in indoor installations. Installation-type cable is acceptable for fixed installations. Flexible patch-type cable with good bend and torsion recovery is required in movable installations (Martin patch cables are recommended). CAT 5e cable and RJ-45 connectors must be used for synchronized master/slave operation.
  • Long parallel runs of AC power and control data cables may cause interference on the data link and must be avoided. Even if not required by law, use separate conduits for power and data cables.
  • Easypix Powers can be daisy-chained, i.e. the data cable can be connected in one single chain of Easypix Powers as shown in Figure 6.
    • Each chain may connect a maximum of 32 Easypix Powers.
  • Each chain on the link must be terminated by placing an RJ-45 DMX termination plug (available from Martin, P/N 91613028) in the DMX output socket of the last Easypix Power on the chain.

Data connection pinouts

RJ-45 connection

RJ-45 connectors are suitable if CAT 5e cable is used for the data link. RJ-45 cable connector pins are numbered from the left looking at the face of the connector with the locking clip on top (see Figure 7).

MARTIN Easypix - Data connection pinouts - 1
Figure 7: RJ-45 cable connector pins

Connectors must be wired according to the 568-B system using the standard RJ-45 pin-out for DMX applications:

• Pin 1 (White/orange): DMX data hot (+)
• Pin 2 (Orange): DMX data cold (-)
• Pins 7 (White/brown) and 8 (Brown): Common
Pins 3 and 6 are available for Data 2 connections in DMX 512-A or similar systems. They must be wired as follows:
• Pin 3 (White/green): Available for Data 2 hot (+)
• Pin 6 (Green): Available for Data 2 cold (-)
Pins 4 and 5 are not used in currently available lighting control systems but can be wired as follows:
- Pin 4 (Blue)
- Pin 5 (White/blue)

XLR 5-pin connection

Many DMX lighting controllers have XLR 5-pin output connectors. To connect these to the RJ-45 connectors on the Easypix Power, use an XLR 5-pin to RJ-45 adapter, (available from Martin, P/N 11840111). If you need to rewire XLR connectors, pin numbers are normally marked on connectors. Connectors must be wired using the standard XLR DMX pin-out:

- Pin 1: Cable shield

• Pin 2: DMX Data 1 - (cold)
• Pin 3: DMX Data 1 + (hot)

Important! To avoid ground/earth loop interference, ensure that the DMX cable shield does not come into contact with the shell or body of XLR connectors.

Luminaire connection

A custom 13-pin DIN cable system is used to carry power and data from the Easypix Power to Easypix luminaires and from one Easypix luminaire to the next. Cable connectors have a locking ring that must be turned fully clockwise until two clicks are heard once the connectors have been pushed together.

Extension cables are available from Martin if a gap is required between luminaires (see under 'Accessories' on page 41).

The maximum permitted power/data cable length from the Easypix Power to the last Easypix luminaire on the custom cable link is 100 m (328 ft.).

Important! The Easypix luminaire cable has identical connectors to the cable used in Martin Tripix™ luminaires, but do not connect Martin Tripix and Easypix luminaires to each other, as they use different data signals and you may cause damage that is not covered by product warranties.

System setup

Important! Read this description carefully before applying power. Incorrect configuration of the Easypix system may permanently damage the Easypix luminaire.

Important! The total length of the luminaires connected to one Easypix Power must not exceed 7.2 meters.

The Easypix Power has two output channels marked Output I and Output II. Each output channel can be controlled as one pixel. The two output channels added together can drive up to twenty-four Easypix 300s or six Easypix 1200s or any mixture that does not exceed 7.2 meters in total. You can distribute the Easypix luminaires as you like between the two output channels.

Luminaire configuration

The Easypix system is designed as a flexible modular system that can support up to 24 Easypix 300s or 6 Easypix 1200s per Easypix Power device. The Easypix Power must be configured to match the desired luminaire layout.

Setting up stand-alone operation

In stand-alone operation, no DMX controller is required. Instead, 64 pre-programmed static and dynamic lighting effects stored in the Easypix Power memory are sent to the Easypix luminaires for display when stand-alone operation is enabled.

If more complex effects are required than those available, you will need to add a DMX controller to the system and use DMX control.

The Easypix system is set up using the Easypix Power's DIP switch (see Figure 8).

Table 2: Stand-alone program DIP-switch settings

If the system is powered on when you select a stand-alone program on the DIP switch, allow several seconds for the selection to take effect.

If a DMX signal is sent to the Easypix Power, it overrides any standalone program that is currently running.

Setting synchronized master/slave mode

If you are running multiple Easypix Power devices on a data link, you can synchronize action so that all Easypix Powers and the connected Easypix luminaires run the same show simultaneously.

Setting master and slave

In synchronized (master/slave) mode, the first Easypix Power on a data link must be set as the master by setting pin 12 on the DIP switch to ON and the others set as slaves by setting pin 12 on the DIP switch to OFF. The stand-alone program selected on the master Easypix Power will be executed on all Easypix Power devices.

Important! Do not set more than one Easypix Power on a link as master.

When daisy-chaining Easypix Power devices in master/slave mode, use RJ-45 connectors and CAT 5e network cable only. Do not use RJ-45 to XLR adaptors.

Setting up DMX-controlled operation

The Easypix Power can be controlled by sending instructions from a DMX controller to the 3 DMX channels (out of the 512 channels available in one DMX universe) the Easypix Power uses.

The first of these 3 channels is the Easypix Power's DMX address. You must set the Easypix Power's DMX address as a binary number on the unit's DIP switch with the lowest value on pin 1 and the highest value on pin 9 (i.e. pin 1 sets 1, pin 2 sets 2, pin 3 sets 4, pin 4 sets 8, pin 5 sets 16, pin 6 sets 32, etc. in the binary number) and the controller must send instructions to that address and the next two channels.

To save time calculating binary numbers, use Table 3. To use this table, first find the DMX address in the main block in the table. Then read the settings for pins 1 - 5 to the left and read the settings for pins 6 - 9 above the address. "0" means "OFF" and "1" means "ON".

For example, to set the DMX address to 101, you need to set DIP switch pins 1, 3, 6 and 7 to ON, as highlighted in the table.

* Do not turn power off during a software upload, or you will damage software on the Easypix Power.

DMX-controlled operation

When the Easypix Power is set up for DMX-controlled operation, faders on the DMX controller are used to control color and intensity. The control method depends on which color control mode the Easypix Power is set to:

In RGB mode, three channels on the controller are used to control the intensity of red, green and blue from 0% to 100%.

In HSI mode, three channels on the controller are used to control hue, saturation and intensity.

- Hue is controlled in the following order: Red → Orange → Amber → Yellow → Green → Cyan → Blue → Indigo → Violet

When the Easypix Power is receiving a valid DMX signal, the green DMX LED lights.

Stand-alone operation

When the Easypix Power is set up for stand-alone operation, Easypix luminaires begin displaying their stand-alone program as soon as power is applied to the Easypix Power.

Service and maintenance

MARTIN Easypix - Service and maintenance - 1

DANGER! Read "Safety Information" on page 3 before carrying out service or maintenance work on the Easypix system. Lock out power to the entire distribution system before servicing or opening any cover.

Important! The Easypix system requires regular service and maintenance to maintain reliable operation and protect the investment it represents. Excessive dirt and particle build-up degrades performance, causes overheating and will damage the Easypix Power and Easypix luminaire. Damage caused by inadequate cleaning or maintenance is not covered by the product warranty.

The service and maintenance procedures described in this section must be carried out by qualified professionals only. Any service procedures not described in this section must be carried out by the Martin Service organization or its authorized agents.

It is Martin policy to use the best quality materials available to ensure optimum performance and the longest possible component lifetimes. However, optical components in all luminaires are subject to wear and tear over the life of the luminaire, resulting in gradual changes in color rendition, for example. The extent of wear and tear in the Easypix depends heavily on operating conditions and environment, so it is impossible to specify precise lifetimes for optical components.

Cleaning

MARTIN Easypix - Cleaning - 1

Warning! Do not use a high-pressure water jet for cleaning.

Regular cleaning is essential for luminaire life and performance. Build up of dust and dirt degrades the luminaire's light output and cooling ability.

Cleaning schedules will vary greatly depending on the operating environment. It is therefore impossible to specify precise cleaning intervals for the Easypix system. Inspect luminaires within their first few weeks of operation to see whether cleaning is necessary. Check again at frequent intervals. This procedure will allow you to assess cleaning requirements in your particular situation. If in doubt, consult your Martin dealer about a suitable maintenance schedule.

Clean the Easypix Power and the Easypix luminaire housing and front

cleaning. Do not use products that contain solvents, abrasives or caustic agents for cleaning, as they can cause surface damage to the housing and the front cover.

Diffuser filters

Important! Install diffuser filter sheets with the matt, textured surface facing out towards the front cover and shiny, untextured surface facing in towards the LEDs.

The Easypix luminaire is supplied with a narrow beam angle diffuser filter installed. The diffuser filter softens the output from the LEDs and alters the beam angle.

See Figure 8. Diffuser filters are available in three different beam angles: narrow, medium and wide. The diffuser filters can be ordered from Martin (see "Accessories" on page 41).

The diffuser filters are marked with notches to identify them. See Figure 8:

MARTIN Easypix - Diffuser filters - 1

text_image Notch One notch - Narrow(20°) Two notch - Medium(60°) Three notch - Wide(120°)

Figure 8: Diffuser filter identification

To install a diffuser filter:

  1. Isolate the Easypix luminaire from power. If the luminaire has been in use, allow it to cool for at least 5 minutes.
  2. Remove the luminaire from the DIN rail by using a 2.5 mm Allen key to release the mounting clamp screw and then unhooking the mounting bracket from the DIN rail.
  3. See Figure 9. Remove the side plate screws and the side plate at one end of the luminaire.

Figure 9: Remove diffuser

  1. See Figure 10. Install the diffuser filter by clipping one side of the diffuser filter into one groove in the front cover, then pushing the other side of diffuser filter down into the other groove in the front cover until it clips into place.
  2. Slide the front cover back into the aluminum profile housing.
  3. Replace the side plate and the screws. Drive all screws gradually to the bottom. Do not over-tighten, or you will damage the thread.
  4. Reapply power.

Fuse replacement

DANGER! Lock out power to the entire distribution system before servicing or opening any cover. Replace fuses with ones of the same type and rating only. Do not attempt to bypass a fuse.

The Easypix Power is protected by a 5.0 amp slow-blow primary fuse. If the Easypix Power is completely dead, the primary fuse may have blown.

To replace the fuse:

  1. Disconnect the Easypix Power from power
  2. See Figure 11. Open the fuseholder located next to the power cable entry with a flathead screwdriver and remove the fuse.
  3. Replace the fuse with one of the same type and rating. Fuse ratings are listed on serial number labels and under "Electrical" on page 40.
  4. Replace the fuseholder.
  5. If fuses continue to blow, there is probably a fault. Disconnect the device from power and data and contact a Martin service technician for assistance.

Figure 11: Fuseholder

Software installation

It may be necessary to upload new software (i.e. firmware) to the Easypix Power if you believe that the product has a software-related fault or if you want to update to a newer version. Software updates are available from the Martin website (http://www.martin.com) and can be installed via the DMX data link with the following items:

• The Martin Uploader application, version 5.0 or later, downloadable

- The Easypix main software update file, downloadable free of charge from the "After-Sales" area of the Martin website (this file can be downloaded automatically from within the Martin Uploader application)

- A Martin Universal USB-DMX Interface or similar PC/luminaire hardware interface and a Windows PC.

Installing software

To install software in the Easypix Power:

  1. Connect the uploader hardware to the Easypix Power data input connector.

  2. Upload the software as described in the Martin Uploader help file or user documentation. The red "Service" LED will flash during the upload.

  3. When the upload is completed, the red "Service" LED will extinguish. Disconnect the uploader hardware and reconnect the Easypix Power to the DMX link.

  4. Software uploads can fail (most failures are caused by interference on the data link). Cycle power off and on and check that the Easypix Power resets correctly, i.e. no LED error warning appears. If an error appears, cycle power off and on again and check that the luminaire now resets correctly. If an error appears again, repeat the upload procedure. If the problem persists, contact the Martin Service organization or its authorized agents for assistance.
