I am doing a bit of work in theatre where we have a seperate programmer and head electrician and I was just wondering which one would generally be responsible for choosing the DMX addresses for the lighting rig?

That makes sense, I personally believe that anyone who is high up in a department so head and certain teachers should have access to be able to assign codes and have keycards issued without having upper admin interfering, like they should be restricted to only assigning certain permissions and...

@RonHebbard so the Bio Box is basically what we know as the booth or FOH but when compared to FOH it is more used to describe the enclosed position where the techs are whereas anything outside of the box is classed as FOH so if the sound op decides he/she/they want to mix from outside of the box...

You are right in saying that I’ve never dealt with school districts because as I’ve mentioned before in this thread I live in Australia where at least in my state we don’t have school districts and decisions like that are up to the individual school.Having different keys is good but depending...

Surely it wouldn’t be too hard to add the keypad to the stage door would it or is it more the issue of actually giving codes out to the kids. It’s things like this that I see as the biggest advantage for having systems like this in place.It’s interesting that you mention that you’ve got a...

So most schools that I know of and certainly the one I go to is a completely seperate entity from the state government and is run independently but they are still governed by all of the rules set by the department of education, and are funded by both state and federal governments. While parents...

I wasn’t so much meaning the entire school more so just the theatre because of the amount of different students that use it and more so locking access to things like the bio-box/booth to only people who actually need to be in there or into certain store cupboards, and other areas backstage.Not...

As someone that works in high school theatres a lot where everything uses a physical key it would be so much nicer to have key cards as they can be issued more easily to people that are external contractors or even students but each can have they’re own access levels and doors they can actually...

I just had a look and they still do them it just appears as if they might of changed how they’re labeled, as if you looked at the A series XLR panel connectors they all come in a -0 variation which has no latch but instead has spring retention. As most others have said genuine Neutrik connectors...
