About this Event
The PRG GroundControl™ Followspot System gives a followspot operator the freedom to remotely operate a high output automated luminaire as a followspot from up to 2,000 feet (about 609.6 m) away. Designers now have total creative freedom to put followspots in places that were either previously unusable or involved complex rigging. With the GroundControl (GC) Followspot System, the operator is away from the luminaire, making the required physical footprint much smaller than conventional followspots. Because of this small footprint and low weight, followspots can now be placed in a wide variety of positions.
This session will cover the following topics:
- Introduction to PRG GroundControl System (Understanding the 3 parts: GC Spot Luminaire, GC Truss Box, GC Followspot Controller)
- What GC Features (Monitor & HD camera, local control for intensity, iris, zoom, edge, and frost, on-board touchscreen for easy addressing, configuring, and diagnostics, wide range of color correction, CMY color mixing)
- Connecting fixture, truss box, controller, power, and data
- System Start-Up (Powering up, setting controller and fixture home positions, setting camera image orientation, configuring the reticle)
- Operation and learning Menus (main, configuration, lamp, communication, status, information, options, settings, presets, manual control, store preset)
- Manual Controls (pan & tilt, edge/frost, beam iris, zoom intensity and in/out, day/night modes, reticle, blackout, camera iris)
- DMX control channels (GC Best Boy, Followspot Controller Mechanism Selection)
- Timing Channels with functions and mapping
- Software Update
- And hands on with PRG proprietary fixtures including Best Boy LED!
