:Description & Features
\\The IQ512 is a memory lighting control console designed for
television studios, houses of worship, theatres, and nightclubs. The
console may be used with up to 512 dimmers. It stores an unlimited
number of cues and shows on standard MMC and SD cards. Also it
stores a distinct look on each of its sliders through a full propor-
tional softpatch. Smooth fades from one look to another are exe-
cuted through standard theatrical split crossfade controls. A
hypertext menu on a backlit L4CD display guides the user through
all operations. Memory cues and the softpatch are saved automati-
cally and held indefinitely. Shows may be edited offline on any per-
sonal computer. The IQ512 can also serve as a Remote Focus Unit,
easily allowing control of any of 512 dimmers. Finally, it can pass
through and capture a look from another console making it easy to
use as a backup.
:Setup
\\As soon as you have received your equipment, open the boxes
and examine the contents. If the equipment in the carton does not
agree with your order or the packing slip, contact the factory imme-
diately and we will be happy to help you. If any damage is noted,
contact the carrier immediately to file a claim for damages. You can
be sure that when the equipment left the factory it was in good con-
dition, thoroughly tested, and properly packed.
Proper connection of electronic lighting control equipment is
very important. The IQ512 has been designed to make it as simple
as possible. The IQ512 console sends a low voltage digital signal
called DMX-512 to one or more devices called dimmer packs. Plug
the male end of the control cable into the female connector on
the IQ512. Plug the female end of the control cable into the
dimmer pack.
