CORONAVIRUS COVID-19 UPDATE

Pharos Architectural Controls has always followed appropriate government and Public Health England advice for our operations regarding coronavirus (Covid-19). In line with this advice we have cancelled training events and customer visits throughout most of 2020 and 2021, but are now in a position to start these up again, beginning with an online version of our entry-level Standard training course. See below for available dates. In the meantime, please rest assured that our Support and Sales services will continue as normal for the foreseeable future. We’re here if you need us!

Course Descriptions

Standard training (half day)

This entry-level training course covers all of the basics of the Pharos system, including fixture layout, patching, timeline programming, and controller configuration. After this training, you will be able to setup a project, including basic system integration, and set up an interface for a Touch Panel Controller.

This course is offered free of charge.

Advanced training (full day)

This course is for those looking to take their projects to the next level.

The first half of the day will cover advanced topics across the entire Pharos software and hardware offering (e.g. scripting, custom presets and custom web interfaces). The second half of the day will take the form of a workshop where you’ll have the chance to experiment on different Pharos hardware, with a member of our team present to answer questions and give tips.

This course will normally run on the second Tuesday of every other month in our London HQ. Please note there is a nominal charge for this course.

Setting up large projects (half day)

This intermediate-level course will focus on tips, tricks and best practices for setting up large projects (>10 universes). The LPC X and VLC will be covered in detail, as well as protocols, importing and exporting data, and a workshop including hands-on practice with a 20+ universe installation.

This course is available for users that have completed the basic training or have prior Pharos project experience.

Focus on Touch Panels (half day)

The TPC and TPS offer powerful, customisable user interfaces. The TPC has flexible lighting control built-in, and both products can act as interfaces to other controllers in a larger Pharos system.

This course is focused on how to get the most out of your TPC/TPS, including themes, triggering possibilities, variables and basic scripting.

This course is available for users that have completed the basic training or have prior Pharos project experience.
