New range of STAGEMAKER controllers - ECO, RIGGER and THEATER - for STAGEMAKER SR.
This range of STAGEMAKER controllers has been specially developed to control Verlinde STAGEMAKER motors, series SR. Three versions are available: ECO, RIGGER and THEATER with 4, 8 and 12 channels. STAGEMAKER SR motors can also be remote controlled, individually or as a group. Very simple to very complex scenographic effects can thus be obtained safely by merely pressing a button. By connecting several controllers together up to 60 STAGEMAKER motors can be simultaneously managed. The whole range was displayed for the first time at the last Prolight&Sound trade show.
The ECO controller is the basic model designed for the direct voltage hoist (Type A). Economical, this solution consists of a metallic box with a 19" rack mount to control up to 4 motors. It provides a 16A power supply to the 4 channels and is fitted with a short circuit and thermal protection system, together with either a 16 pole connector board output or a P17 for each motor. A 19" storage and travel "flight case" is available as an option.The Rigger controller is proposed in 4, 8 or 12 channel versions in a case (4 or 8 only for the Valise version) or on a 19" rack designed for the direct voltage hoist (Type A). The standard version is fitted with a phase detection system with automatic correction together with a master/slave function, internal pre-wiring for the offset control option and is fitted with a short-circuit and thermal protection system per group of 4 motors. The 19" rack version is available with numerous options such as an offset radio or cable control system, safety integration level 3 (SIL3), a charge controller and storage flight cases.
Finally, the Theater 19" rack controller is designed for the STAGEMAKER low voltage B-type range. Available in 4, 8 or 12 channel versions, it is specially intended to be used for permanent installation applications such as theatres. The standard version is fitted with a phase detection system with automatic correction together with a master/slave function, internal pre-wiring for the offset control option and is fitted with a short-circuit and thermal protection system per group of four motors. It is also fitted with 6-pin output connectors for each motor (power supply + control). It offers the same options as the Rigger version: offset radio or cable control, C1 safety integration level 3 (SIL3), a charge controller and storage flight cases.
