Betapack 4
Zero 88’s robust Betapack has served the entertainment and installation industry for 30 years with its legendary reliability, toughness, versatility and fantastic value for money.
Betapack 4 builds on this heritage and experience with a solution for distributing both dimming and “hot power”, so ideal for a mixed rig featuring both tungsten and LED fixtures – all in one single, affordable device.
Combining both dimming and ‘hot power’, Betapack 4 will continue to serve the most modern applications in lighting rental, installation and portable situations for many thousands of venues worldwide. Each 10A channel provides a dimmed /and a “hot power” socket for simple and easy power distribution around any venue or space.
New variants include Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 TOP and a CEE17 / 15a split unit. The versatile design allows the unit to be 19” rack mounted, wall mounted or portable and there are also a number of carried options to suit all scenarios and environments.
ZerOS Server
The new ZerOS Server is a slimline 1RU fully featured lighting control system perfect for use in performance installations and networks requiring show replay, tracking backup or architectural system integration.
One product can be used for three primary actions:
Show replay – it can be a stand-alone or remotely triggered controller for permanent installations such as building facades, landscapes or theme parks.
Full tracking backup and auto switch-over with the FLX console makes it a great option for any venue or event where full redundancy is required.
The ZerOS Server can also be bridged between performance lighting and architectural lighting, ideal for theatres, conference centres and other public buildings.
ZerOS 7.9.5
This flexible and powerful software will also be shown with some new key features, including:
Flexible channel allocation – Allowing fixtures to be patched across 64 universes without wasting unused channels. The FLX console now supports up to 8192 DMX channels so this is extremely useful.
SETUP – The SETUP has been completely redesigned, bringing speed, simplicity and many more potent new features, specifically including numerous additional networking options.
“Home” added to FLX S – FLX S console users can now “Home Fixtures” and adjust each parameter’s “Default”, “Home” and “Max” values.
More effects – Several effects upgrades include the addition of “emergency”, “warning”, “lightning” and “flicker” options among others
Multiple Desktops – The FLX & FLX S console ranges can now include four desktops with Remote Monitors for viewing any of these desktops independently to the console’s onboard display.
