Making a Scene with DALI

By admin | Tips & Tricks | Comments are Closed | 19 March, 2021 | 0

The DALI protocol allows for up to 16 DALI Scenes to be saved locally in the fixture to be recalled on command. We can also programme DALI fixtures in a more traditional way using flexible Designer Scenes, which can then be placed on a timeline or triggered as required. In this Tips and Tricks, weRead more

DALI Configuration

By admin | Tips & Tricks | Comments are Closed | 19 March, 2021 | 0

The DALI protocol is a staple for static architectural lighting and is often now used hand-in-hand in projects with more flexible DMX for dynamic lighting. Pharos has always supported DALI via the RIO D to work alongside the standard controllers and with native support on the EXT recognising the TPC’s ideal package of DMX, DALIRead more

New in Designer 2.8 – API Propagation

By Sharon Dhillon | Tips & Tricks | Comments are Closed | 14 December, 2020 | 0

Custom web interfaces offer end users a useful device-based override control solution. Prior to 2.8.0, triggering web API (JavaScript/HTTP) commands via a custom web interface would only affect the controller on which it was fired. For projects with multiple controllers, which all needed to respond to a web UI command, this necessitated many additional triggersRead more

By Sharon Dhillon | Product & Software News | Comments are Closed | 14 December, 2020 | 0

With the cost of LEDs becoming incredibly low over the past few years, new protocols were developed to drive large numbers of LEDs easily; the SDI was designed to convert our current DMX functionality into an ability to speak these new protocols. This is where serial data comes in; by this, we mean two types;Read more

New in Designer 2.8 – VLC enhancements

By Sharon Dhillon | Tips & Tricks | Comments are Closed | 14 December, 2020 | 0

Splitting the EDN

By admin | Tips & Tricks | Comments are Closed | 19 November, 2020 | 0

NOTE: the method described below for EDNs also applies to KiNET Power Supplies.   The EDN is our new Ethernet Data Node, capable of distributing up to 20 ports of DMX from a Pharos networked control system.

Mix your colours with Direct Colour

By admin | Tips & Tricks | Comments are Closed | 19 November, 2020 | 0

For fixtures that have more emitters than just RGB, we have always intelligently mixed colours using our internal “Virtual RGB” playback engine algorithm, converting a given RGB colour to RGBA, RGBW, etc, by extrapolating the additional values based on relevant emitter levels. However, the calculated level for White or Amber was not always the desiredRead more
