Just to clear up a common misconception out there - the beams from both the Selador classic version and the Selador Desire series are both round. I know that the classic fixture is rectangular in...

Yes, I do have a project that is just like this. (Thanks for the mention, Les.)

In downtown Fort Worth the buildings have had old style (the larger ones) christmas tree lights outlining them for...

And whyy woudl you even consider doing this? It's a light console for pete's sake, not something to play Doom/Gears/COD/whatever-game-is-popular-today on.....

Upgraded control electronics in the box.
All 10A circuits instead of 6 and 10A variations.
Built in Convience output
RDM Capable
SCR dimming instead of Triac

For starters

Just as an FYI, this can be done with any of the USB fader wings from an Eos/Ion as well. If I have a laptop (or desktop for that matter.. lets just say 'Computer') that is running in Client mode, I...

The thing I find most people find daunting is that they think its a big mystery. It's not. Design is just choices you make. You make them for a reason, but those reasons are your reasons and my...

ETC Link is an old technology that allowed the console to talk to the dimmer rack and have information reported back and viewable on the console. The amount of information depended upon the dimmer...

The other thing to remember about park is that it's not recorded in to cues in most systems. This can be very benficial. I typically use it to set a level for houselights over the booth area or...

Can I correct some items in your post?

I have worked in the space and know some things you might not have seen.

First up - it's not an ETC system. Yes, DTC is using an ION to control the...

Cause it can also cause more problems than it solves. It's not that it does any damage to the console or anything,but how many phone calls do you think the factory would get with people complaining...

My guess, and it is only a guess, is that the 5VDC on USB isn't enough power for the wing.

You do know that you can hook the wing directly to the desk and lose the USB connection, right?

You would be in violation of your electrical code not running it in EMT (Empty Metal tube) AKA Conduit. Theatres get away with running extension cables from one outlet to power a fixture because it...

A clarification on the above:

ION is no longer list priced in the price book. It is now a POA item. (Much like the Expression was for years)

You should absolutely have it checked out if nothing else. I pm'd you my cell phone number as I work for the manufacturer of that particular DMX Distribution system. Give me a call and we can talk...

This is all well and good, and we can give you some very general tips and thoughts over this here inter-web thingy, but you really need to call your local dealer and have them come out and take a...

Only a device in Net1 mode. No other devices may be used.... i.e. you can't by a gateway today and put it with the express and have it do anything.

Absolutely, Please PM me.

I gotta tell ya, that while Footer is right in what he says, it doesn't sound like you know enough about how your system is configured and set up to do this. You might get it to work. But you also...

If he were to convert his network run to a dmx run (bypassing all appropriate switches/routers/etc) then cable length would not likely be an issue. The length of the cable is not so much determined...

No you probably read it right. I think what he is trying to say is not that Rev G means that you have the EDLT, but rather that minor changes were made to the barrel design to be able to accommodate...

Go to the etc website: www.etcconnect.com

Click on the controls section and look at the express. Go to the downloads section and look for the Express quick guide. It should pretty easily explain...

The High End controllers use a different protocol other than DMX. Thusly they cannot control anything other than high end fixtures.

If I remember correctly, and this is a big IF here, I thought that all of the Cirque shows used the Robert Juliat Followspots.

I could be really wrong in saying this, so take it with a Salt lick,...
