why do you say that the scanners are JBsystems scanners when there obviously dynamos i can read the names on the fronts of the units in the vidio

[t1m0tjuh]

No, the brand is JB systems, and the model is Dynamo. Search on google: JB systems Dynamo.

weetje pearle river moon scanners zijn ook mooi

[t1m0tjuh]

heb ik echt nog nooit van gehoord. Ook geen filmpjes of info via i'net.

[ljmike1204]

dynamo heeft nu ook met 250w lampje en als je ze weg doet ik kan er nog wel 1 gebruiken ik kan wel ruilen tegen smal mushroom dus intresse dan zegt u het maar

[t1m0tjuh]

Klopt, maar delichtopbrengst is veel te laag voor een 250wattertje. Dus daarom dat wij Martin kopen. Die hebben veel betere spiegels. Kost wat, maar dan heb je wat.

Maar ruilen tegen een mushroom is voor ons niet nuttig. Wij kunnen daar niets mee.

The protocol used is DMX (512). There are 512 channels, each channel can hold a value of one byte (256 possible values).Spotlights usually use one channel (dimmer).Movingheads use most likely 10-15 channels: pan, tilt, dimmer, gobo, color ...... (sometimes pan and tilt use 2 channels each to have more possible values (and therewith a finer movement)).

correct me if i'm wrong

it's kind of creepy without the music!

[Jameslong44]

cheap shit

@xcepheix ohh very true my bad

[xcepheix]

@TimCC10 You and I are both correct. 255 is the max Value, but "zero" is another possible value, so we have a total of 256 values :) (2^8 The size of a byte :> )

[TimCC10]

@xcepheix 255* not 256 as max value

[christopherwarsh]

all that equipment and you couldn't get a tripod?

[MrCocalights]

the dynamos is a bad scan

[thesixtiesguy]

It's easier than PLC programming. It's... this address pans x degrees, this address tilts y degrees, color changes the same as any DMX programming. If you have heads at different positions, each head and it symetrical mate will share a unique set of addresses. Takes a little practice to get several lights to all move to focus on a single point simultaneously.

nice and cheap heads! i'm sick of repairing em once a month after a year of work at one project. never again.

[transPlanko]

thanks for that detailed response. it's not a million miles away from PLC programing then I guess.
