Overview

Event Multi-Function system

The Event Multi-Function system is the latest development of our Event lighting range. Having developed 200, 575 and 1200W Event systems for the exhibition market, the next step was to provide a unified ballast and cabling system for all three. Using the innovative Transmitter Technology (patent pending) in combination with the Event Multi-Function ballasts, it is possible to drive all ARRI Event daylight fixtures of 200W, 575W and 1200W. A transmitter is connected inline with each lamp head allowing the ballast to identify what is connected and automatically supply the appropriate power.  By using the transmitter system with Multi-Function ballasts, existing cables and split boxes can be utilised, eliminating any risk of connecting lamp heads to inappropriate ballasts.

 

Location System 200/575/1200


The Location System is for use with standard lamp heads. Each pack is connected by a multicore cable to an intelligent split box, which can be positioned conveniently on set. The split box identifies what combinations of heads are connected and ensures that the correct power is always supplied with no risk of damage to heads or ballasts. For higher powers a 500/4000W rolling rack is available, containing three 2.5/4kW ballasts supplying a three-way splitter box via a single multicore cable. Powering a discharge head becomes almost as easy as plugging up an incandescent.
