The first lighting shootout area features a specially built 8m-wide cyclorama, the second a practical hands-on 'mini TV studio', and the third section is a lecture and presentation theatre where LED fixtures from different categories are compared side-by-side with their traditional Tungsten or Discharge equivalent.

PixelRange will demonstrate three newly released lighting fixtures - QPar, PixelSmart and Smart

The H40R has three-sided webbing. The thicker braces on the bottom side allow easy mounting of automated luminaires/moving heads and central loading, reducing the torsion effect resulting from one-sided loading in standard trusses.

The spigot orientation follows that of the S series truss, allowing easy assembly while the truss is still on the floor. The H40R measures 339mm high by 239mm wide. The diagonals are placed to allow room for a 30D truss to rest on the bottom chords.

The loading rate is comparable to the H40V, taking into account that, due

The protective circuitry is also identical with that used in the DEEP2 series. It also follows the DEEP2 design in its integration of two temperature-dependent two step cooling fans. One special feature is a switchable 12 dB low-cut and/or 12 dB low-pass filter adjustable from 25 Hz to 150 Hz on both channels. This makes it possible to use the DP2400X as a bass amp or even realize a powerful bi-amping system. With the filters switched off, it becomes a conventional 2 channel power amp.

Kling-Net has been designed to allow the distribution of real-time video data to remote display devices, such as LEDs or LED panels, over Ethernet.

"Many basic and first time users are afraid of using LED lighting because of the complexity of networking and control issues," says ArKaos CEO, Marco Hinic. "Traditionally, using and networking LED lighting has required a high level of technical knowledge which has been a deterent for many. We wanted to remove all this complexity and replace it with a simple to use protocol which automatically takes care of the magic numbers for the user."

Kling-Net uses a Media Server to do all the work to make operation simplicity itself. It adds a layer of 'intelligence' to even the most simple LED device and enabling it to ta

The company's SDS sound systems uses "the latest technology to deliver accurate sound reproduction at high SPL. The results are heavy duty loudspeakers that sound and look great".

The SDS Horn uses an array of soft dome tweeters producing the same energy as a compression driver from a much larger source area. Replacing compression drivers excludes the inherent air distortion (wave steepening) and diaphragm break up common to pro-audio loudspeakers. This gives the SDS Horn exceptional clarity, balance and control, says the company.
