Safety and Installation Manual
Software
The Martin M-Touch requires a Windows PC running Martin M-PC software. The
software is available from the support website controllersupport.martin.com
Please check periodically for new releases that may add new functionality or
improvements.
We recommend that you update to the latest software release before using the
Martin M-Touch for the first time.
Setup and Powering Up
USB
The Martin M-Touch does not have a separate power connector. It draws power
from the connected computer via USB.
If you use a USB hub to connect the Martin M-Touch to a PC, it must be powered
type. If you use an unpowered USB hub, the Martin M-Touch will fail to connect to
the PC.
When the Martin M-Touch is connected to a PC running M-PC software for the first
time, a driver will be installed on the PC. As soon as the driver is loaded and
initialized, the M-Touch is ready to be used.
DMX
Connect some fixtures to the DMX port of the Martin M-Touch controller.
Use only cable that is certified for DMX. Do not use microphone cable or other cable
types, as unsuitable cable impedance may cause signal disruption.
Use a 5-pin male DMX plug on the M-Touch side.
Always use DMX termination on the last fixture on the DMX link.
Damage to the controller due to faulty DMX wiring is not covered under warranty.
