MagicQ USB two universe DMX512 interface

Connect DMX universes to MagicQ PC and MagicQ consoles with ChamSys USB two universe DMX512 interface. Connects via USB and provides two independent DMX512 interfaces.

The twin DMX outputs are optically isolated from the USB to protect against damage to your PC. DMX framing is generated from within the module, unlike many other dongles, thus giving reliable and secure operation. Highly accurate DMX framing is possible with full 512 bytes frames. The default setting of 33 DMX frames per second provides for accurate stepping of moving lights.

In normal operation the interface is powered from the USB port. A separate 12 volt power input socket is provided for connection to low power USB ports. Can also be used with MagicQ consoles to provide additional DMX outputs.

Supplied complete with USB cable and MagicQ PC software CD.

ChamSys four port Ethernet to DMX convertor

The ChamSys Four Universe Ethernet Interface is a multi purpose Ethernet to DMX interface allowing both output and input of DMX512 protocol to the MagicQ system.

The Interface supports four DMX512 ports that are configurable as either inputs or outputs and one DMX port that is always assigned as an Input.

The Interface supports both Art-Net and ACN Streaming DMX network protocols.  The DMX512 ports are fully configurable with DMX packet length, framing rate, and timings.

In addition the Interface can operate in a non-network mode as a simple 4 port DMX buffer.

The Interface can be configured from the front panel using a 4 way DIP switch and 2 rotary switches.  In addition the Interface can be set to ChamNet mode.  In ChamNet mode the Interface is configurable from the MagicQ console avoiding the need for local configuration.

Multiple Interfaces can be used on a single network either configured directly from the front panels or using ChamNet control from a MagicQ console.  Multiple Interfaces can be synchronised together to ensure that the DMX output from the Console is consistent and does not involve “tearing” either within universes or across multiple universes.

The Interface can be powered from the ChamSys Power Over Ethernet Network Switch thus avoiding the need to run separate power cables.  Alternatively the Interface can be powered directly from mains input on a locking Powercon connector.

When connected via the network to MagicQ the Ethernet Interface unlocks the restricted features of MagicQ such as full screen Execute Window and remote control.

The Interface firmware can be updated over the network from MagicQ consoles or MagicQ software.

Supplied complete with Powercon cable and MagicQ PC software CD.

MagicQ USB MIDI / SMPTE module

SMPTE support for EBU25, SMPTE30, NTSC30, Film 24.

MIDI input enables triggering of the main playbacks on (PB1 to PB10) on the MagicQ console. MIDI data can be output from each Cue in Cue Stacks.

Connections include MIDI IN, MIDI OUT, MIDI THRU, SMPTE and USB. Supplied complete with USB cable and MagicQ PC software CD.

MagicQ Audio Interface

The MagicQ Audio Interface is an interface module for connection MagicQ consoles and MagicQ PC systems to audio systems to enable automated triggering of lighting, LED and video effects. The MagicQ Audio Interface incorporates dual 7 band audio processing hardware which can analyse the received audio input and relay it to the MagicQ software to enable Playbacks to be triggered. This enables sound activated lighting FX and lighting shows to be realised.

The MagicQ Audio Interface is packaged in the standard MagicQ interface box with a USB input for connection to the MagicQ console or MagicQ PC system. The module has 2 sets of dual phono connectors - left and right high level inputs, and left and right low level inputs. The user can choose which inputs to use dependent on the audio levels available. Two sets of audio level LED indicators help to provide user feedback on the received signals.

As with all other MagicQ USB interfaces, when this interface is connected to a MagicQ PC system, the restricted features of MagicQ are enabled - e.g. audio support, remote connections, Execute Window.
