    Help please!! Network video cameras

    Well i would talk to an IT person to see if it is in any way possible to either direct patch that jack to another one or to be able to put the balun where ever that port terminates and run coax from there. Coax is fairly easy to run and the runs can be quite long, so you might just look at...

    Help please!! Network video cameras

    How is it ran? Just an ethernet cable from your camera to where? If it is not plugged directly into the network, you can get whats called a video bauln that basically connects to either end of your network cable and converts an analog video signal to be ran over ethernet and then reconverted...

    Help please!! Network video cameras

    Part of my current job at the zoo I work at is to help manage and install close to a hundred cameras, a good majority of which are IP-based. While IP-based do offer the flexibility of being able to be viewed remotely, they hardly ever give real time video. Are you looking to be able to have...

    Which would you get?

    We just bought 6 Countyman B6's. From just using them for the one show, they sound amazing. While we previously haven't had B6's we have had B3's since who knows when. The only problem I've ran in with them is that some of the ones that are 10-12 years old are starting to get shorts right near...

    New Show

    Sam, expect it to be just a straight show. I don't think we're gonna mic any characters. Possibly do hanging mics but that depends on what Stowell says. It's mostly just going to be pre/post show music, intermission music, and sound effects.

    Wirless Mic Channels

    We just got in the new rack of the ULX's the night before opening night. In a mad rush to get them setup and out to actors I just set them on group 1 and went channels 1-6. Tonight after rehersal I am going to draw out frequencies to select from. For the show, we are going to run 18 mics. We...

    New wirless system - missing anything?

    Correct. We currently have (not counting the new setup) 2 independent setups. One is an older (we have no idea how old but are guessing around 10-14 years old) VHF SC series rig. The othere is a newer (about 4-6 years old) UHF UC series rig. Each rig has its own antenna distributor. The VHF SC...

    New wirless system - missing anything?

    The antennas I have are on a Shure UC antenna dist (and therefor UHF). Would those work?

    All-in-one headset?

    Our broadcast and video department has a ton of Telex gear that they will just give to us if we can find them a smiple replacement headset system. The only problem is the teacher wants the system to be wireless and totally contained in the headset (no beltpack, or radio, or anything). The system...

    Intercom System

    It is 5 pin, not 6. Does telex/anyone make new basepacks that will work with this system? We need to find basepacks to interface with this due to totally dead basepacks (no audio at all), basepacks that are cutting in and out, and not having enough basepacks. The headset part we can just go out...

    Intercom System

    We currently have a ~20 year old Telex Intercom system. It is composed of a Telex IC-3M basestation, IC-1 basepacks, and standard headsets. The basestation connects to a drop on the wall via DMX/5Pin XLR. This is then split up into literally a hundred drops all around the theater (all DMX). The...

    Dimmer Temperature

    We have 2 Sensor Racks for a total of ~192 dimmers at work. One of the racks keeps having airflow warnings. Both racks seem to be getting very hot, even when nothing is running (~90º with nothing on). If we open up the dimmer room (which has ventalation problems, plus 2 large power iso's in it)...

    Very minimal system

    The 500w EHD's seem to cast enough light from the distance. The throw distance is pry around 50', though I am not sure, I need to get in and get some better mesurements. Right now I am just going to try to hang what I have on the plot and then if we get more equipment, go from there. We...

    Very minimal system

    The lekos in the back are all lamped with 500w Osram EHD's. I will have to check what lamps we put in the spots (they are brand new and not yet arrived). I believe but am not sure since we are borrowing some of the 8in fresnels, that they are running BVV's instead of BVT's, thus putting them...
