Strand at Showtech and ABTT
Strand Lighting has chosen Showtech in Berlin and ABTT in London for the introduction of the new EC21 series dimmer racks. The new racks were developed in response to feedback from customers and consultants on Strand’s entire dimmer range. A first for EC21 is the ability to have up to 96 Sinewave dimmers in a single rack greatly simplifying the implementation of full or partial Sinewave dimming solutions.
The new racks allow users to freely mix and match dimmers of any type (both Sinewave and conventional dimmers) within a rack to meet the needs of any installation. Also new with this system is a Quad standard dimmer module allowing racks to have a density of up to 144 dimmers. EC21 Dimmers are available with a wide range of circuit breaker and filter choke options to meet the needs of the most demanding applications. Status reporting is also available for most dimmers and is standard on Sinewave modules.
Continuing the implementation of Strand ShowNet networking solutions the new racks feature a new high performance processor with integrated Ethernet control input with an easy to use Web Browser based configuration and monitoring system. The processor also simplifies network wiring with an integrated Ethernet multi-port switch allowing rack to rack data interconnection using standard Ethernet Patch cables. As with all Strand dimmer racks our Outlook Architectural control and our System Wide Back up presets are included in the new system.
Strand Control Consoles will also be part of the shows with the most current release of Strand console software and teamed up with WYSIWYG Console edition. WYSIWYG running on Strand Networks is matched to the capacity of the console allowing users to see their entire rig regardless of system size. Programming shows has never been easier and Strand continue to expand our control system features and functionality. Strand Lighting is a registered WYSIWYG developer.
