MAC 300
The MAC 300 is an automated moving head washlight luminaire with an elegant contemporary design, a compact version of the successful MAC 600. This flexible atmosphere generator produces a wide variety of colors and effects and is used wherever dynamic color wash is important both indoor and out. The MAC 300 fits discreetly in a ceiling or truss yet it is powerful enough to cut through even high ambient light levels. The MAC 300 has proven to be well suited to a wide range of lighting applications.

Preprogrammed Macros

Preprogrammed macro sequences, for example a dimmer or strobe pulse, can be called up for automatic and quick programming.

CMY plus Color Wheel

Narrow and Wide Beam Angles
A simple change of the front lens makes narrow and wide beam angles possible. The standard 18 lens produces a focus range of 18-35. The 59 diffuser lens creates a focus range of 59-67.
A CMY color mixing system provides nearly unlimited color choices. A separate 6 slot plus open color wheel offers additional color possibilities. All slots are replaceable and split colors are possible. CTC and UV filters are also included.

Dimmer and Shutter

A full range dimmer and fast 14 Hz shutter for strobe effect are standard.
The MAC 300 employs a 250 Watt discharge lamp producing a luminous flux of 4800 lumens. The integrated sidelight protector controls beam projection at the point of emergence by preventing unwanted light spill.

Zoom Effect

Wash effect

Frost filter engaged

Zoom effect possibilities are provided by a variable frost filter. Smooth continuous transition from a standard wash to zoom effect creates the same zoom possibilities as conventional 1 and 2k Watt lights.

LED Display

A 4-digit LED readout allows the user to customize settings for easy programming. Error messages are easily understood, lamp and fixture usage is displayed and the readout flips for easy reading in any position.

Service Friendly

The compact shell is easily detached. Modular construction makes components easily accessible and a snap to remove. Maintenance is simple.

Clamps

Two separate Omega adapters and two different clamp types are available for easy rigging.

Elevations

Pan and Tilt
The lumination head of the MAC 300 pans 540 with a tilt of 265 at two different P/T speeds and works in all possible orientations.

Specification

General The luminaire is an automated yokemounted washlight with a subtractive cyan, magenta, and yellow color mixing system, six-position color wheel, fullrange dimmer, and variable field angle. It employs a 250 Watt discharge lamp as the light source. Mechanical effects The luminaire provides subtractive cyan, magenta, and yellow color mixing plus a wheel with six positions for interchangeable dichroic glass filters. Output intensity is regulated from 0 to 100% in 256 steps by a mechanical dimmer / shutter that opens and closes at speeds up to 14 flashes per second. The moving yoke pans 540 and the head tilts 265. The diameter of the luminaire's light beam is adjustable through a range of 18 to 35 through the application of a variable diffuser. (Optional) The luminaire is supplied with a wideangle diffuser lens that provides adjustable beam angles from 59 to 67. The position of all mechanical effects excluding the dimmer and frost filter is monitored by a position feedback system capable of automatically returning the effects to programmed values. Control The luminaire responds to command signals conforming to either the USITT DMX512 (1990) standard or the Martin RS485 standard. All user-selected software settings are adjustable via an onboard control panel with LED display or via data cabling in conjunction with a remote control unit. The luminaire has two locking 3-pole XLR connectors for serial data transfer.

Performance When fitted with a new MSD 250/2 discharge lamp, and with no colors or frost applied, the luminaire emits a total luminous flux of 4765 lumens in a beam 18 wide, where the outside edge of the beam is defined as the circle having one-tenth the intensity of the beam's midpoint. Housing The exterior of the luminaire is constructed of high-temperature UVresistant fiberglass-reinforced nylon with integral black color. The housing provides a protection factor of IP 20. Installation The luminaire operates in any orientation. It is supplied with a bracket to which mounting clamps may be bolted. The bracket attaches to the base with quarter-turn fasteners such that the luminaire may be installed at any increment of 90 in a plane parallel to the structure. When installed above floor level, a secondary attachment is fastened to an attachment point in the luminaires base. Electrical The luminaire operates, within a tolerance of five percent, on 50 and 60 Hz supplies at 100, 120, 210, 230, and 250 volts. It is fitted with a three-prong male IEC socket for connection to AC power. The luminaire must be electrically grounded. The luminaire conforms with CE safety standards EN 60598-1 and EN 60598-217, and with CE electromagnetic compatibility standards EN 50 081-1 and EN 50 082-1. Units intended for use in North America are cETL certified for compliance with CSA standard C22.2 No. 166, and ETL certified for compliance with ANSI/UL standard 1573. (Certification pending.) Environmental The luminaire must be located in a dry area in which the ambient temperature does not exceed 40 C (104 F).
