Basics of Wireless DMX – Hands-on Workshop for Beginners
Want to control lights from your tablet? Tired of running or rigging wired DMX cables all over your sets to control your lights? Want to demystify the radio frequencies of CRMX?
RatPac Controls is proud to announce our series: Basics of Wireless DMX Hands-on Workshops, held at our RatPac Van Nuys, CA location starting on March 1st. Sign up now for one of our workshops – they’re all the same, so feel free to join the one that works best for your schedule.
These workshops will provide you with a comprehensive introduction to wireless DMX radio frequency behavior and how this technology can be used with LumenRadio CRMX-enabled products. This foundation will enable you to control lights made by brands such as Aputure, Arri, Astera, LiteGear, Litepanels, Nanlux, Rosco, Kino Flo, and others for on-set applications. This is your opportunity to learn how it can be used to make your lighting setup more efficient.
We will be covering:
- How to pair a transmitter with an iPad and ensure they both have the right settings.
- How to pair one transmitter with multiple receivers.
- How to pair one transmitter with a RatPac lunchbox dimmer.
- How to patch a basic single-intensity fixture into an iPad DMX control app.
- How to position transmitters and receivers on set to optimize signal broadcast.
- How to troubleshoot radio signal interference from other non-lighting devices.
*One should have a basic understanding of traditional DMX lighting control before taking this class.
We will *not* be covering:
- The basics of how to select an RGB light fixture’s profile.
- How to patch a multi-color RGB fixture into an iPad DMX control app.
- How to patch a fixture into a professional lighting console.
- How to pair a transmitter with a full color LED panel or tube.
- How to pair multiple RatPac transmitters together to make a multi-universe transmitter constellation.
This class is a must for anyone looking to understand the basics of wireless DMX lighting control, reduce the number of cables they have to wrangle, and gain confidence in positioning transmitters and receivers around their stage to control lights.
