Recommended Touch Screen for M2GO
The M2GO is designed to be operated with an external touchscreen with a minimum screen resolution of 800x600 pixels.
We strongly recommend that you do not use the M2GO without a touchscreen because the controller software is designed around a touch interface.
Without the touchscreen the system will provide a poor user experience and is difficult to use.
The M2GO can be operated with the following touchscreen types:
- Generic Windows 7 Touch compatible screens that do not require custom drivers
- ELO Touch Systems iTouch, Accutouch and IntelliTouch compatible screens.
• VGA, HDMI or DVI - USB 1.1 or 2.0
Martin recommends a 16:9 ELO touchscreen with iTouch technology.
A recommended screen is the ELO 2201L (part number E382790) which is available worldwide through ELO retail partners.
http://www.elotouch.com/Products/LCDs/2201L/
Other screens may be verified, please check www.martin.com for further recommendations.

Setup and Assembly
Unpacking
Open the shipping box carefully and keep all included pieces and protective covers for re-use.
Do not transport the M2GO / M2PC in any other container than the factory-provided cardboard box with the original protective packaging inserts or a professionally designed protective case.
The console is provided with a protective clip-on cover. Remove the cover carefully before powering up the system.
The cover can be conveniently placed underneath the console during operation.

The controller requires a stable mounting position that provides support for all 4 rubber feet on the bottom.
Never place the controller onto a blanket or other soft surface as this would block the ventilation openings and cause overheating that will shut down the internal processor and possibly damage the controller.
Power Connections

Martin M2GO - M2PC accepts AC mains power at 100-240V 50/60Hz. Do not connect it to outside this range. Damage resulting from incorrect connection is not covered under warranty.
North America: A cable with a NEMA 15-5P plug is provided for use with the M2GO - M2PC in the USA and Canada. This approved cable must be used in North America.
Rest of the world: The provided IEC cable is not fitted with a country-specific plug.
Install only a plug that meets local and national electrical codes and is suitable for the country's specific power outlet types. Refer to a certified electrician for any questions regarding a country's specific requirements.
A 3-prong grounding-type (earthed type) plug must be installed following the plug manufacturer's instructions. The table below shows some possible pin identification schemes; if the pins are not clearly identified, or if you have any doubts about proper installation, consult a qualified electrician.
| Wire color (standard EU code) | Pin | Symbol |
| brown | live | L |
| blue | neutral | N |
| yellow/green | ground | ![]() |
- Check the power switch and ensure that it is set to the center OFF position.

-
Insert the XLR 4-pin connector from the power supply unit into the power input on the back of the desk
-
Insert the provided power cable into the IEC connector of the power supply unit and connect the cable to a properly protected and grounded power outlet.
-
M2GO: Connect an external touch-enabled monitor, e.g. ELO 2201L with both the video and USB connections.
M2PC: Connect the USB cable to the PC system
- Turn on the desk by toggling the power switch to the CPU position (M2GO) or USB position (M2PC)

Service
The Martin M2GO - M2PC is designed as a rugged, roadworthy device. Occasional cleaning is the only service required of the user. For any other service-related concerns, please contact your Martin dealer or visit www.martin.com.
Any service not described in this document must be carried out by a qualified Martin technician.
The M2GO - M2PC requires periodic cleaning, as does any computer. The schedule depends heavily on the operating environment; please consult a Martin service technician for recommendations if needed.
As with any computer, never spray the cleaner directly onto the desk, always spray onto a lint-free cloth and wipe clean. Cleaning products designed for cellphone and tablet devices tend to work very well for cleaning of a lighting console.

Important! Excessive dust, dirt smoke fluid build-up etc. can degrade performance and cause overheating and damage to the controller that is not covered by the warranty.
