Introduction Thank you for selecting the Stagebar 54, a modular LED-based color changer and pixel display fixture from Martin.
Physical installation WARNING!Use either the supplied adjustable floorstand/mounting bracket or an omega bracket and rigging clamp to install each Stagebar 54. With all methods of installation: 1. Check that all structures, equipment or surfaces used for support can bear at least 10 times the weight of all the fixtures, clamps, cables, auxiliary equipment, etc. that they will support. 2. Check that there are no combustible materials within 0.5 m (20 in.
AC power DANGER! Read “Safety Information” on page 3 before connecting the Stagebar 54 to AC power. Lock out power to the entire distribution system before carrying out installation work. DANGER! Replace fuses with ones of the same type and rating only. Important! Do not supply the fixture with power via an external dimming system, or you may cause damage the fixture that is not covered by the product warranty.
• The total current draw of all the fixtures in the chain after the first fixture must not exceed 15 amps peak, 11 amps constant. See the following examples for an explanation of what this means in practice: - At 100 V AC power, a maximum of five Stagebar 54 fixtures may be linked in one chain so that they draw AC power from the same source. As stated in the Stagebar 54 Specifications (see page 23), each fixture draws a current of 2.5 A at 100 V. The first fixture will draw a current of 2.5 A.
Control data link The Stagebar 54 accepts a DMX 512A signal. Each fixture has two RJ-45 connectors on the connections panel: one for data input and one for data output. An RJ-45 to XLR converter cable is supplied with the fixture, allowing you to connect a standard DMX cable with XLR connectors. Connection pinouts XLR connection XLR connectors are suitable if DMX cable is used for the data link. XLR pin numbers are normally marked on connectors.
Fixture setup The control panel and backlit LCD display on the Stagebar 54’s rear panel allows you to set DMX addresses and alter various fixture settings. The Stagebar 54’s onboard battery makes the most important fixture setup functions – including DMX addressing – available when the fixture is not connected to AC power. • Press Menu to access the menu or go up one level. • Press Enter to confirm a selection. • Press Up and Down to navigate in the menus.
Setting DMX addresses The fixture’s DMX address is set via the control panel. Fixture settings Besides the DMX address, various other fixture characteristics can be set using the control panel and display. Adjustment Gives manual control of the LED output for individual colors. This feature allows you to test LEDs or set a static color display without using a DMX controller.
Service and maintenance DANGER! Read “Safety Information” on page 3 before carrying out service or maintenance work on the Stagebar 54. Lock out power to the entire distribution system before servicing, cleaning or opening any cover. Refer any service operation not described here to a qualified service technician. Important! Excessive dust, smoke fluid, and particle buildup degrades performance, causes overheating and will damage the fixture.
5. See Figure 4. If a cooling fan or grille requires more thorough cleaning, loosen the fan assembly retaining screw (arrowed) slightly and slide the assembly out of the end cap for access. Do not strain the wires to the fan. Brush dirt from the fan blades with a soft brush, preferably in conjunction with a vacuum cleaner. Torx 20 Figure 4: Cooling fan removal 6. Avoid trapping wires while reinstalling the fan assembly.
Installing and removing the diffuser front The diffuser front makes the individual LEDs invisible, giving a surface with smooth color. Before installing it, remove the LED lenses as described on page 15, otherwise hot-spots will be visible on the diffuser surface. To install a diffuser front: 1. Isolate the fixture from power. If the fixture has been in use, allow it to cool for at least 10 minutes. 2. See Figure 6. Loosen the two captive screws (arrowed) on the end cap and swing the end cap open.
2. Remove the blue power input connector from the power inlet. See Figure 6. Loosen the two captive screws (arrowed) on the end cap next to the power inlet and swing the end cap open. 3. The fuse is visible on the mains filter PCB. Remove it with long-nosed pliers, being careful not to disturb the power wiring. 4. Replace a defective fuse with one of the same type and rating only. Replacement primary fuses are available from Martin suppliers (P/N 05020050). 5. Reinstall the end cap before reapplying power.

Troubleshooting Problem Probable cause(s) Remedy No power to fixture. Check power and connections. Fixture is completely dead. Primary fuse blown (located in fuseholder on rear panel). Isolate fixture from power. Check fuse and replace. Fixture works normally but other fixtures connected to power output on rear panel are completely dead. Power output fuse blown (located inside fixture behind right-hand end cap on PCB near power inlet). Isolate fixture from power. Check fuse and replace.
