Description
Hopping from gig to gig and can’t bring your console with you? Doing the lighting in a venue whose desk has seen better days? Want to unlock multiple platforms with just one device? That’s where ETCnomad control comes in. Small enough to fit on your keychain, ETCnomad plugs into your computer and opens up the power of Eos, Cobalt, and High End Systems’ Hog 4 PC software, so you can program and run shows anywhere.
Nomad can serve as a primary controller, a backup or a client device – or work offline entirely – operating on either a PC platform running Microsoft Windows 7/8, or natively on a Mac (Intel processor) running OS X (Mavericks). When it’s a primary or a backup, Nomad’s system output equals that of the device with the lowest number of outputs. When it’s a client, Nomad’s output capacity is ignored.
There are four output counts to choose from: Nomad 256 (1/2 universe), Nomad 1024 (1024 outputs) and Nomad 1536 (1536 outputs) – which can be field-upgraded without any hardware changes – and Nomad 2048 (2048 outputs). Nomad communicates via Ethernet-based lighting protocols Net3/ACN/sACN and ArtNet, or with the ETC Gadget USB-to-DMX converter (at this time, Nomad supports only one connected Gadget). RDM is supported via Net3 Gateways.
