RC4 Wireless Dimming and Motion provides new freedom to put DMX- and CV-controlled lighting, motors, and effects anywhere you need them. Transmitters are available with up to 128 channels. Each receiver/dimmer provides 4 integrated DC dimmer outputs. The RX4-MINI receiver delivers 200W at up to 18V and is small enough to fit in small props and costumes. The slightly larger RX4-STD and RX4-HO (High Output) are rated for 500W and 1000W at up to 30V. The RX4-FD and RX4-SERVO motor controllers include the highly secure RC4-MSS Motion Safety System, ideal for controlling moving set pieces that are often not restrained to a guiding track. In addition to DMX inputs, up to 12 CV inputs are provided. CV is an easy way to interface to handheld controllers and automation systems, keeping non-lighting applications off the lighting console. Any DMX or CV input can be patched to any dimmer or motor control channel. System configuration and channel assignments are done from the RDM-ready transmitter – you can even monitor remote battery voltages during a running show. Tough plastic receiver enclosures are transparent to radio signals, eliminating the need for external antennas. Dimmer curves for lamps and LEDs are provided, and digital persistence makes LEDs mimic the smooth dimming of incandescent filaments. RC4 systems are used by Shaw Festival, San Francisco Ballet, Minnesota Opera, Cirque Du Soleil, Disney Theatrical and many others. RC-Series remote control systems have been available since 1991. Qualified institutions are eligible for an Educational Discount.[common contact information for publication]
