The Alutruss family is growing

February 15th, 2012 Posted in ALUTRUSS Tags: , ,

Reutlinger Kabelhalter

Our Alutruss Decolock system has been refreshed with young blood. With the DQ1 we can now offer a 1-point truss.

Besides the 3-point (DQ3) and 2-point (DQ2) versions Alutruss can now present a third member, the Decolock DQ1. This 1-point system offers you even more decoration possibilities.

Decolock DQ1 is made of aluminum. The individual elements are connected via a cone, pivot and pin. The advantage of the conical connection system is that the cones completely fit into the main chords so that highest load capacity is guaranteed. The Quick-Lock system enables fast, efficient and highly aesthetic assembly when the truss constructions are frequently assembled and dismantled.

With Decolock, you can realize compact installations with low self weight, e. g. for shop displays, shop decorations, exhibitions, interior design, fair booths, discotheques and theaters. Decorative frames with advertising signs, transmission canvas etc. can also be realized.

The documentation of this truss system is closely related to the Codes of Practice SQ P1 – Truss Systems published by the VPLT/PLASA. The load table as calculation base can be downloaded before buying the product.

Simply upgrading your Eurolite KLS Sets

January 27th, 2012 Posted in EUROLITE, worth knowing Tags: , ,

KLS-Banner

You don’t need DMX to control a KLS an four additional spots – you only need a DMX line…

EUROLITE FP-1A DMX line, a spot with 3 DMX channels and the Eurolite FP-1 foot pedal, to be more precise. Sound strange, but it is not at all. A maximum of four spot have to be connected to the DMX out of the KLS and then lopped through (it works with KLS- 200, 401, 801, 1001). Everything is controlled with the foot pedal in a kind of Master/Slave mode.

Necessary requirement, the spot’s 3 channel DMX mode needs the following starting addresses:

Synchronic to panel 1 of the respective KLS: starting address 4
Synchronic to panel 2 of the respective KLS: starting address 7
Synchronic to panel 3 of the respective KLS: starting address 10
Synchronic to panel 4 of the respective KLS: starting address 13

EUROLITE KLS

Functionality of the foot switch remains unchanged: blackout, freeze, sound control, auto program.

Here are some of our spots which can be connected:
EUROLITE ACS Bars RGB,
EUROLITE PAR-64 RGB 24x5W,
EUROLITE PAR-64 RGB 36x1W Short sil
EUROLITE ML-56 TCL 18x3W
EUROLITE PAR-64 TCL 18x3W

To those who cannot call a KLS their own we recommend to take a look at our 8 KLS Kombo Packs. With the Kombo Pack 7 we also offer an alternative without DMX.

Scanner Halogen LED

Scanners also offer the choice. The choice between conventional or new technology: halogen or LED. We show you, which devices are comparable. The final decision, which way to go in the future is not ours, it is up to you…

Compared to static effects scanners feature a benefit. Due to the mirror deflaction the light beams have wider operating range. Moreover, the show gets more dynamic with the motion of the mirrors. But how to create this dynamic action, with halogen or LED? After all, it is a given fact, that considering the light power. LEDs have closed the ranks a can replace halogen models easily. We show you which models can be compared and thus are exchangeable.
