The ART2000i is designed using the knowledge gained in manufacturing tens of thousands of channels of touring dimming, this install system combines the robustness of design from a touring system with the economy of a system which does not need to move. Care has gone into the design to ensure it is easy and flexible to install and you can be confident in the knowledge that using the ART2000i in any install design will make the installers job fast as well as giving the client trouble free operation for years to come. The optional integral patching expands the possibilities of ART2000 including that of a mixture of touring and install systems, enabling a smaller number of install channels with the knowledge that additional channels can be hired in or purchased as touring systems for larger productions. For installers this means less work having to make or buy a custom patch option, which reduces the over system cost to the client. The ART200i is based on a master frame containing 2 dimmer modules and an optional expansion module that can add another two modules. The exact specification you need can be built using a number of standard parts, these are listed at the end of the document but please contact us to ensure the most optimum system is put together. Each frame has a dedicated mains inlet, allowing for easy retrofit in venues with smaller mains supplies already fitted. Each frame can have a mains isolator switch in the cases where the installed mains controls are further away. Each modules can be protected with a 30mA RCB allowing for maximum safety. The design incorporates full monitoring and status feedback via the backlit LCD display. Static state environments are catered for using the front panel control. Further 12 memories can be recorded for later replaying either as a simple show in the event a console is not available. Other features include full DMX patch and merge (2 DMX lines), dimmer curve and limit selection per channel, power OK indicators . The 'Load Check' and “Breaker status” of each channel is indicated on the LCD screen to give a positive feedback about the system status.
