    This might be a bit too esoteric to be helpful for anyone else , but I'm finding this useful for a certain song from a musical about a multicoloured coat we're working towards just now... 😁

    This is such a brilliant use of the image picker - I love it!!!

    Edward, is it worth a note to that effect in the manual?  I don’t think we’d been advised of that, but may have missed it?

    Page 82 of the manual states that USB ports are for keyboard & mouse, external touchscreen (S48), and external storage devices.

     

    On page 15 of the manual, it also states:

    Quote

    On FLX, the USB ports are “overload protected” in pairs. If a USB device tries drawing too much power, FLX will disable that pair or ports until the device is unplugged.

    FLX S consoles do not include this feature, and therefore it is not recommended to use the USB ports for devices such as lights or fans on FLX S consoles.

    As Edward says, we've updated the manual to put this in a nice big red box, on both Page 15 and Page 82. We haven't released this version of the manual yet, but it'll be included within the next public revision.

  4. We're creating a range of training resources covering data distribution and networking - the way your lighting console talks to your rig.

    If you have questions, or suggestions of topics, please let us know!

    For example:

    • Why is an audio XLR and a DMX cable different?
    • Is it true that RDM causes lights to flicker?
    • What's the difference between Art-Net and sACN?
    • How do subnet masks work?

  5. Our online home's had a refurb, making it quicker and easier to find the info you need. Check it out at zero88.com

    Thanks to the Internet Achive's "Wayback Machine", we've taken a trip down memory lane, looking at how our website has changed since 1998:

  6. Hi all,

    We no longer use "Invision Community" to manage our downloads. The new method is much simpler.

    The latest version of ZerOS Library can be downloaded from zero88.com/library. This includes the Contents and "Supported by RigSync" files which used to be available through the knowledgebase.

    This is also where you download the Library for legacy consoles (formally called the "filtered library")

    Fixture tools are also available further down the page

  7. Hi all,

    We no longer use "Invision Community" to manage our downloads. The new method is much simpler.

    The latest version of ZerOS, Phantom ZerOS and Release Notes can be downloaded from zero88.com/zeros

    Further down this page also includes legacy versions of ZerOS, if these are required (each .zip file includes ZerOS, Phantom ZerOS and Release Notes).

    The latest version of the desk software can also be downloaded directly from each relevant product product page. For example zero88.com/control/flx and zero88.com/control/flxs
