The lighting system consists of six pre-assembled truss modules, each with a moving head washer and a moving head projection spot, making a total of 12 moving head spotlights. There are also six more empty truss modules that serve as a construction extension. This modular construction can be built in different configurations.
In the picture above you can see two equipped truss modules, each with a washer and a spot. The following picture shows a classic layout of the system above a stage:
Four equipped truss modules hang above the stage, which are extended by three unequipped trusses. The entire construction is raised by two fork lifts. You cannot see two further equipped truss modules that are on the floor at the rear edge of the stage.
An equipped or unequipped truss module is 1.35 long.
Depending on the nature of the event room and the stage situation, the system can be set up in different ways. The structure shown in the picture is variant 1a:
If you leave out the middle, empty module from the long construction, you get variant 1b:
Of course, you can always leave out the empty modules at the ends if you want to hang a construction on chain hoists.
In the next two variants, three equipped modules are on the ground and only two are flown:
Equipped modules can also stand vertically to the right and left on or in front of the stage, here in combination with flown modules:
Or the entire system is built on the floor, no lift or chain hoist is required:
All variants shown are operated with a single light mixing console. The so-called patching of the mixer takes place on site: The modules are entered in their positions in the program, after which the system is immediately ready for operation.
The construction and dismantling of the system take an average of 45 minutes each (depending on the accessibility of the stage and whether lifts or chain hoists have to be used).
An equipped truss module weighs approximately 34 kg, an unequipped 12 kg. One equipped and one unequipped traverse module are delivered on a trolley on rollers. There are six of these stacks:
A trolley has a width of 60 cm. The modules are secured on the trolley with tension belts. Another case contains all cables and lines that are necessary to operate the system.
The entire system only requires a Schuko wall socket, which is fused with 16 amps. The entire system only consumes 2.2 kWh (roughly like two kettles), but thanks to modern LED technology it delivers a light output (with white light) of approx. 420,000 Ansi lumens (for comparison: a conventional 100 watt light bulb emits around 1400 lumens ). The lamps are very quiet and so the system can also be used for classical concerts.
