Service and diagnostic messages
The MAC One gives service and diagnostic information by displaying a large 3- or 4-character short code
and a smaller full-text message in the fixture’s display. The short code is visible at a distance, allowing
easier reading with the fixture still in the rig, for example, while the full-text message gives more detailed
information.
Excessively high temperatures
If any of the temperature sensors reports that the fixture has exceeded its recommended temperature
range, the fixture reports a temperature warning and reduces light output to reduce its temperature. If the
temperature reaches a dangerous level, light output is shut down completely and the fixture displays a
temperature cutoff error message.
Temperature warnings are canceled and full light output becomes available again as soon as the
temperature returns to normal.
Warning messages
Warning messages indicate that either:
• problems might appear in the future if no action is taken, or
• the user needs to pay special attention to a function or procedure when working with the fixture.
The MAC One communicates warnings as follows:
• Warning codes are shown continuously in the display and disappear when the user reacts to the
warning.
• If more than one warning is detected, all warnings are displayed in sequence.
• If the display is inactive, the fixture’s status LED (see Figure 2 on page 10) flashes orange to indicate
that there is a warning. Activating the display will show the warning.
The possible warning messages are listed in the table below:
Error unpacking firmware bank during/after
software upload. Fixture will continue to operate
on existing firmware. Warning message is
cleared by a successful software upload or at the
next power off/on cycle.
