ADB Phoenix 10: Memory Lighting Control Desk [Discontinued]
 |
| Phoenix 10 with ISIS 360/600/1024/1600/2048/+ channel With effects, submasters & motion control |
The Phoenix family comprises three desks, based on the same underlying hardware and ISIS® software: Phoenix 2, Phoenix 5 & Phoenix 10. The whole range has been designed with maximum system flexibility in mind, resulting in distinct advantages to every user.
Phoenix EPU
The External Processing Unit (EPU) talks to the Phoenix control desk via an extremely reliable high speed line using an industrial communication protocol. The EPU is ideal for decentralised control when a Phoenix desk is used as a lighting designer's desk, and a second EPU provides an economical solution for a back-up system.
The EPU is based on a Siemens PC for the ultimate in quality, reliability and world-wide service, with a high speed CPU of the Intel Pentium family. Containing a high capacity hard disk drive for storage and a 3.5" floppy drive for archiving, there is no limit to the number of shows that can be stored and recalled at a later date. Two EPUs can be connected together via the high speed synchro line for synchronising / tracking purposes. Every EPU has a very high immunity to electrostatic discharges and electromagnetic interference, and produces very low electromagnetic emission, in compliance with all applicable European directives.
Phoenix desks
The Phoenix control desk is connected to the EPU and houses all user controls. Each Phoenix desk offers submasters for running effects, chasers, timed playbacks, groups, memories, channels and more! Intensity, colour or time settings are controlled by either an easy-to-use digital belt with integrated LED bargraph, or a high grade wheel. Two theatre playbacks are provided for crossfading or piling memories manually or automatically, for holding, reversing or controlling the speed of a running crossfade, for jumping to the next or previous memories and for browsing the sequence backward and forward.
As part of the ISIS software package, all interfaces for riggers, audio, MIDI, motion control and remote operation are already installed, negating the need for software add-ons or upgrades. Each desk offers progressively advanced control over intelligent fixtures, although every Phoenix desk can operate exactly the same functions. For example, Phoenix 2 provides motion control through a trackball and digital belt; Phoenix 5 offers three additional encoder wheels; Phoenix 10 gives four encoder wheels, plus a touch sensitive LCD screen.
