    Need help figuring out how to fix damage from a lightning strike

    I'm helping a school with some upgrades to their lighting system and a big issue is that recently the school was struck by lightning and it has started causing intermittent issues with the dimming system. It's a dimming rack with conventional fixtures, about 20 years old. Some circuits don't...

    Control/Dimming Merging ETC and Strand Network Architecture

    Right. Just reverse engineer the system, basically. One question though - what sort of switch do you have in the booth?Since Horizon Pathport nodes are basically rebadged N21 nodes made by Horizon, which Strand owns, I would assume that they are RDM compatible (Pathport C-Series are...

    Warm and cold?

    It's a bit hard to tell what you're asking because of the atrocious lack of punctuation. Also, I'm having trouble figuring out what the question is. I'm going to assume that you are asking if it matters which colors you use to mix. Answer: yes. If you want the stage to end up basically white...

    an odd end of the year

    On my last school day, there was an all school assembly as usual. This time was different, in that they needed to hang something on the wall of the gym. When this is necessary, the facilities manager gets the genie from the theatre instead of the one from the janitor, solely because ours is...

    just having a good week

    Well, I've been waiting for something to balance out all these fortunate events. Today apparently was the chance. The light board froze; a leg got ripped about eight feet; and there was a runaway line-set which bent the batten, the arbor, and snapped one of its cables. There is also a ton of...
