defective, deformed, wet or showing signs of overheating. Do
not reapply power until repairs have been completed.
Before using the fixture, check that all power distribution
equipment and cables are in perfect condition and rated for the
current requirements of all connected devices.
Use only Neutrik PowerCon cable connectors to connect to
power sockets.
Do not connect devices to power in a chain that will exceed the
electrical ratings of any cable or connector used in the chain.
The supplied power input cable is rated 6 A and can safely
supply only one fixture with mains power. Do not connect any
device to the fixture’s MAINS OUT connector when using this
cable. If you replace this cable and also use the replacement
cable to supply only one fixture with mains power, the

6 RUSH MH 4 Beam User Manual
replacement cable must also be rated 6 A minimum, have three
conductors 18 AWG or 0.75 mm² minimum conductor size, have
an outer cable diameter of 6 - 15 mm (0.2 - 0.6 in.) and be
temperature-rated to suit the application. In the USA and
Canada the cable must be UL listed, type SJT or equivalent. In
the EU the cable must be type H05VV-F or equivalent.
To connect fixtures to mains power in a chain, you must first
obtain 12 AWG or 2.5 mm2power input and throughput cables
that are 16 A rated and temperature-rated to suit the
application. In the USA and Canada the cables must be UL-
listed, type SJT or equivalent. In the EU the cables must be type
H05VV-F or equivalent. Suitable cables with Neutrik PowerCon
connectors are available from Martin™ (see Accessories on

Prolonged exposure to an unshielded discharge lamp can cause
eye and skin burns. Do not stare directly into the light output.
Never look at an exposed lamp while it is lit.
Do not operate the fixture with missing or damaged covers,
shields, lenses, ultraviolet screens or any optical component.
A hot discharge lamp is under pressure and can explode without
warning. Allow the fixture to cool for at least 2 hours and protect
yourself with safety glasses and gloves before handling a lamp.
Replace the lamp immediately if it becomes visually deformed,
damaged or in any way defective.
Monitor hours of lamp use and lamp intensity and replace the
lamp when it reaches the limit of its service life as specified in
this manual or by the lamp manufacturer.
If the quartz envelope of a discharge lamp is broken, the lamp
releases a small quantity of mercury and other toxic gases. If a
discharge lamp explodes in a confined area, evacuate the area
and ventilate it thoroughly. Wear nitrite gloves when handling a
broken discharge lamp. Treat broken or used discharge lamps
as hazardous waste and send to a specialist for disposal.
Protection from eye injury
Do not look directly into the light beam. Do not point the beam in
a direction where a person can look directly into it. Ensure that
persons are not looking at the light beam when the product
lights up suddenly. This can happen when power is applied,
when the product receives a DMX signal, or when certain
control menu items are selected.
Do not look at the beam with magnifiers, telescopes, binoculars
or similar optical instruments that may concentrate the light

Introduction
The RUSH MH 4 Beam™ is a compact-beam moving head, equipped with an
MSD Platinum 2R lamp in a state-of-the-art optical system. The device is
extremely rugged, lightweight and compact, ideal for smaller venues.
The fixture produces an intense and narrow beam for spectacular mid-air
looks and effects. It houses a fixed gobo wheel and color wheel with a
multitude of effects possible from a dimmer and strobe, 6-facet prism and
focus.
The fixture can be controlled using any DMX-compliant controller.
The fixture is supplied with a 1.5 m (5 ft) power cable (local power plug not
included) and two omega-type mounting brackets.
Before using the product for the first time
1. Read ’Safety information’ on page 4 before installing, powering, operating
or servicing the fixture.
2. Unpack and ensure that there is no transportation damage before using
the fixture. Never attempt to operate a damaged fixture.
3. If the fixture is not going to be hard-wired to an AC mains power source,
install a local power plug (not supplied) on the end of the supplied power
cable.
4. Before operating, ensure that the voltage and frequency of the local power
source match the mains power requirements of the fixture.
5. Check the Martin Professional website at www.martin.com for the most
recent user documentation and technical information for the fixture. RUSH
by Martin™ user manual revisions are identified by the revision letter at
the bottom of the inside cover.
Note that whenever AC mains power is applied to the fixture, it will reset all
effects and functions to their home positions. The fixture head will move. This
process usually takes around 20 seconds.

Physical installation
Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before installing the
fixture.
The fixture is designed for indoor use only and must be used in
a dry location with adequate ventilation. Ensure that none of the
fixture’s ventilation slots are blocked and ensure that the
product is fastened to a secure structure or surface.
Fastening the fixture to a flat surface
The fixture can be fastened to a hard, fixed, flat surface that is oriented at any
angle. Ensure that the surface and all fasteners used can support at least 10
times the weight of all fixtures and equipment they will support.
Fasten the fixture securely. Do not stand it on a surface or leave it where it
can be moved or fall over. If you install the fixture in a location where it may
cause injury or damage if it falls, secure it as directed below with a securely
anchored safety cable that will hold the fixture if the primary fastening method
fails.
Mounting the fixture on a truss
The fixture can be clamped to a truss or similar rigging
structure in any orientation. When installing the fixture
hanging vertically down, you can use an open-type clamp
such as a G-clamp. When installing in any other orientation,
you must use a half-coupler clamp (see illustration on right)
that completely encircles the truss chord.
To clamp the fixture to a truss:
1. Check that the rigging structure can support at least 10 times the weight
of all fixtures and equipment to be installed on it.
2. Block access under the work area.
3. The fixture is supplied with two omega-type brackets to which rigging
clamps can be attached. Bolt a rigging clamp securely to each bracket.
The bolts used must be M12, grade 8.8 steel minimum, and fastened with
self-locking nuts.
4. Fasten the omega brackets to the base of the fixture
using the brackets’ quarter-turn fasteners. Turn quarter-
turn fasteners a full 90° to lock them (see illustration on
right).

5. Working from a stable platform, hang the fixture on the truss and fasten
the rigging clamps onto the truss.
6. Secure the fixture with a safety cable as directed below.
7. Check that the head will not collide with other fixtures or objects.
Securing with a safety cable
Secure the fixture with a safety cable (or
other secondary attachment) that is
approved for the weight of the fixture so
that the safety cable will hold the fixture if
a primary attachment fails. Loop the
safety cable through the cutout in the
fixture’s baseplate (arrowed in illustration
on right) and around a secure anchoring
point.
RUSH by Martin™ can supply suitable
safety cables and rigging clamps (see
Accessories on page 44).

AC power
Read ‘Safety information’ on page 4 before connecting the
fixture to AC mains power.
Warning! The mains power input cable supplied with the
fixture is rated 6 A and can supply only one fixture with
mains power. Do not connect any device to the fixture’s
MAINS OUT power throughput socket when using this
input cable. If you want to connect other fixtures to the
MAINS OUT socket, see ‘Linking fixtures to power in a
chain’ on page 13.
For protection from electric shock, the fixture must be grounded
(earthed). The power distribution circuit must be equipped with
a fuse or circuit breaker and ground-fault (earth-fault) protection.
Socket outlets or external power switches used to supply the
fixture with power must be located near the fixture and easily
accessible so that the fixtures can easily be disconnected from
power.
Do not insert or remove live Neutrik PowerCon connectors to apply or cut
power, as this may cause arcing at the terminals that will damage the
connectors.
Do not use an external dimming system to supply power to the fixture, as this
may cause damage to the fixture that is not covered by the product warranty.
The fixture can be hard-wired to a building electrical installation if you want to
install it permanently, or a power plug (not supplied) that is suitable for the
local power outlets can be installed on the power cable.
If you install a power plug on the power cable, follow the plug manufacturer’s
instructions and connect the wires in the power cable as shown in this table:
Earth, Ground or Neutral or NLive or L
US system Green White Black
EU system Yellow/green Blue Brown
The fixture has an auto-ranging power supply that accepts AC mains power at
100-240 V at 50/60 Hz. Do not apply AC mains power at any other voltage or
frequency to the fixture.

RUSH MH 4 Beam User Manual 13
Linking fixtures to power in a chain
If you obtain a 12 AWG or 2.5 mm2power input cable and 12 AWG or
2.5 mm2throughput cables from Martin™ (see ‘Accessories’ on page 44), you
can relay mains power from one fixture to another by connecting fixtures to
power in a linked daisy-chain, MAINS OUT throughput socket to MAINS IN
input socket.
Using 12 AWG or 2.5mm2cables from Martin™, you can link:
•Maximum five (5) RUSH MH 4 fixtures to power in a chain at 100-120 V, or
•Maximum ten (10) RUSH MH 4 fixtures to power in a chain at 200-240 V.

DMX data link
A DMX 512 control data link is required in order to control the fixture via DMX.
The fixture has 3-pin and 5-pin XLR connectors for DMX data input and output
(throughput).
The number of daisy-chained fixtures is limited by the number of DMX
channels required by the fixtures in relation to the maximum 512 channels
available in one DMX universe. Note that if independent control of a fixture is
required, it must have its own DMX channels. Fixtures that are required to
behave identically can share the same DMX address and channels. To add
more fixtures or groups of fixtures when the above limit is reached, add a
DMX universe and another daisy-chained link.
Note that if a fixture loses its DMX signal it will maintain its current effect until
powered off or reset.

RUSH MH 4 Beam User Manual 15
Tips for reliable data transmission
Use shielded twisted-pair cable designed for RS-485 devices: standard
microphone cable cannot transmit control data reliably over long runs. 24
AWG cable is suitable for runs up to 300 meters (1000 ft.). Heavier gauge
cable and/or an amplifier is recommended for longer runs. The pin-out on all
connectors is pin 1 = shield, pin 2 = cold (-), and pin 3 = hot (+). Pins 4 and 5
in the 5-pin XLR connectors are not used in the fixture but are available for
possible additional data signals as required by the DMX512-A standard.
Standard pin-out is pin 4 = data 2 cold (-) and pin 5 = data 2 hot (+).
To split the link into branches, use a splitter such as the Martin DMX 5.3
Splitter™ or Martin RDM 5.5 Splitter™. Terminate the link by installing a
termination plug in the output socket of the last fixture. The termination plug,
which is a male XLR plug with a 120 Ohm, 0.25-Watt resistor soldered
between pins 2 and 3, “soaks up” the control signal so it does not reflect and
cause interference. If a splitter is used, terminate each branch of the link.
Connecting the data link
To connect the fixture to data:
1. Connect the DMX data output from the controller to the first fixture’s male
XLR DMX input connector.
2. Connect the first fixture’s DMX output to the DMX input of the next fixture
and continue connecting fixtures output to input. Terminate the last fixture
on the link with a DMX termination plug.
Fixture setup
This section explains the options available to change the fixture’s settings.
Settings are made using the menus available in the control panel and are
retained when the fixture is powered off.
A complete map of the control menu structure and brief explanations of their
purposes can be found in ‘Control menus’ on page 35.

DMX function settings
DMX function settings include the DMX address and DMX mode.
DMX addressing
The fixture can be controlled using signals sent by a DMX controller over 13
DMX channels. The DMX address, also known as the start channel, is the first
channel used to receive instructions from the DMX controller. Each DMX-
controlled fixture must have a DMX address set. If a fixture has its DMX
address set to 1and you want to use all 15 channels, then the next fixture can have
a DMX address of 16, the next 31, then 46, and so on until the 512 channels
in one DMX universe have all been allocated.
For independent control, each fixture must be assigned its own DMX
channels. Two fixtures of the same type may share the same address, if
identical behavior is desired. Address sharing can be useful for diagnostic
purposes and symmetric control, particularly when combined with the inverse
pan and tilt options.
To set the fixture’s DMX address:
1. Select DMX FUNCTIONS in the control panel and press ENTER.
2. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to select DMX ADDRESS and press
