Overview

Mosaic Show Controllers (MSCs) are the permanent part of your installation supporting DMX512 and DMX-Over-Ethernet protocols to control color-mixing fixtures, conventional dimmable fixtures and automated lights. MSCs are available with 512-2048 outputs with support for up to 40 controllers in a single system. Each MSC has an extensive range of external triggering interfaces, including Ethernet, RS232/RS485 Serial or DMX Input, MIDI, and contact inputs. The built-in real-time clock triggers precise timed events, including astronomical and lunar events. Additional triggering interfaces are supported by optional MSC Remote Devices attached over a PoE Ethernet network.
