Page 22: Animation Wheels
A N I M A T I O N W H E E L S A N D T H E I R U S E S The animation wheels mentioned here can be ordered from your Martin dealer. The effects described are merely suggestions and a degree of experimentation may be required to achieve exactly the effect that you want to achieve. - Page 23 Linear breakup: The Linear Breakup disc (P/N 62400223) provides rhythmic movement and can be used to simulate a breeze through the branches of a tree or the rhythmic undulations of sea waves. DHA 14 Triangle breakup: The Triangle Breakup disc (P/N 62400225) gives a more pronounced and rapid rhythmic effect than the Linear Breakup disc, and is suitable for use as psychedelic effects or for a rough sea effect.
- Page 24 Flicker wheel: The Flicker Wheel (P/N 62400222) provides a different kind of effect and can be used at high speed for motion effects, such as passing trains. It can also be effectively used for just breaking up the beam of a fixture and for an organic strobe effect.
- Page 25 5 Remove the effects wheel and then the color wheel using a 2.5 mm hex wrench. The wheels are held in place using clamps that are similar to the one illustrated here. 6 Bearing in mind that in this configuration the animation wheel and the color wheel will rotate constantly, remove or replace any color flags as appropriate to the effect that you want to achieve.
- Page 26 Note: If at a later time you remove the animation wheel then use the control menu to select the wheel (WHEL) personality (under the PERS menu) and set it to COLR. When you reinstall the color wheel you may also need to calibrate it using the color wheel calibration option available under the Utility menu.
- Page 27 ensure that the wheel does not come into contact with anything that might hinder its free rotation. Clamp the effects wheel into place using a 2.5 mm hex wrench. 10 Replace the effect wheels module. 11 Replace the fixture cover before powering the fixture on. 12 If the effect wheel needs to be recalibrated, use the use the control menu to select U T IL >C A L>...
