Extensive Fixture Support
Our fixture library has all the luminaires you could possibly need, with over 20,000 ready to download directly into our Designer 2 software. The library includes a huge range of fixture types and modes, with more available on request. Use any number of fixture types together, including DALI alongside DMX.
20,000 and counting…
Pharos provides an online fixture library which is bursting with over 20,000 fixture profiles, including generic libraries.
Multiple modes are included for many fixtures, such as 8-bit and 16-bit channels and different colour mixing behaviours. The fixture library is built right into the Designer software, so you can download and use a fixture in just a few clicks.
Pharos products can support a huge range of fixtures, including:
LEDs in any colour
(e.g. RGB, RGBA, RGBW, RGBWA)
LEDs in any white configuration
(e.g. cool white, neutral white, warm white)
Conventional dimmers
Relays
LEDs in any DALI fixtures
Moving lights
Media servers
Fountain jets
DMX and DALI
DALI and DMX are very different control protocols, but with the Designer LPC family you can control both from a single system.
DMX
Fixture Support
The DMX ports on Designer products all comply with industry standards and are compatible with the huge range of DMX fixtures on the market. The DMX refresh rate can be set to suit the needs of your particular installation.
DMX-over-Ethernet
All Designer controllers support common eDMX protocols, such as Art-Net, sACN, KiNET and Pathport, which can be much more convenient for larger installations or when working with fixtures that support eDMX natively.
Discovery and Addressing
Designer supports RDM, an extension to DMX that allows fixtures to be discovered and addressed for faster commissioning.
Output View
The exact values being output on any DMX or eDMX universe can be viewed from the Designer 2 software or the web interface of the controller – greatly aiding troubleshooting.
DALI
Scenes and more
Designer supports the standard DALI scenes, but for even more flexibility, DALI commands can be programmed in Pharos scenes and timelines alongside your DMX fixtures.
Emergency ballasts
Emergency ballast tests can be scheduled to run on a daily/weekly/monthly/annual basis, at specific times of day, with reports then viewable via the web interface.
Type 8 support
Designer supports the standard DALI scenes, but for even more flexibility, DALI commands can be programmed in Pharos scenes and timelines alongside your DMX fixtures.
Discovery and commissioning
Emergency ballast tests can be scheduled to run on a daily/weekly/monthly/annual basis, at specific times of day, with reports then viewable via the web interface.
