The DMX Commander 24/48 of Eurolite makes controlling light convenient. It allows you to control 48 channels via 24 faders and call 36 scenes directly via 12 faders and 3 pages. Over all, 48 programs can be memorized via 4 pages. There are also RDM functions and the possibility to switch the wait-timer from 0 – 2 minutes to 0 – 10 minutes.

But there’s more to it than that: The Commander 24/48 supports you whenever possible. It shows active scenes and chasers with its intelligent status LEDs. You can save scenes and chases on a USB stick via USB connection. Firmware updates can also be transmitted by USB.

That’s how the Commander 24/48 makes it easy for you to work. It’s particularly suitable for smaller stages, which use LED effects as accents, and for applications with few channels: Like for example in theatres or clubs.

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

A 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

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.

With a dimmer you can adjust the brightness according to the situation. But our LED dimmer is a special one. It is equipped with 8 outputs, which can be controlled separately per DMX. A feature really not every dimmer comes up with.

The different devices can hence be switched to the outputs and can be controlled individually. The number of the connected devices varies depending on the voltage and the amperage. The total power output of the EUROLITE AT_DIMM 8 DMX Dimmer adds up to 6 ampere at 24 volts.

Perfect surroundings for the AT-DIMM 8 are the gastronomy or retail shops for permanent installation. These special fields often see demands for brightness adjustments. Thanks to our dimmer you can always respond in a quick and flexible manner. Read more »

Perhaps, the EUROLITE LED Bow Bar itself looks a bit unimposing. But plugged in and connected with other Bow Bars it shows an imposing performance. Especially, when the bows are connected and form a circle.

Thanks to the 288 LEDs (96 red, 96 green, and 96 blue ones), each with a diameter of 5 mm, the light output is more than adequate to colorfully illuminate clubs or bars. A bar is split into i 4 segments and 24 subsegments, respectively. They can be controlled via  4, 6, 9, 15, 24 or 27 DMX channels – just how you prefer or the venue demands it.

Beside circles it is also possible to form waves. Therefor, the Bow Bar has to be turned to the appropriate direction and then connected to the previous element. Due to the intelligent mechanism the connection is very firm.

In interaction with the straight EUROLITE LED BAR-384 RGB 5mm you can also place straight passages in the installation – for some doorway arches and the like.
