Omega 2
The Omega 2 Show controller is a variation on the standard
Omega 2 Lighting Console. The main difference being that the Show
controller model has no manual controls, and has remote control
inputs.
There are 24 remote inputs which are used to initiate cues,
macros, or go hits. There are also 3 "Cleanup" inputs, go inputs for
the 4 faders, and a blackout input. SMPTE time code is also included
in the Show Controller model.
PROGRAMMING:
All programming is done from the remote keyboard. The remote
keyboard may be located up to 1000 feet from the show controller.
All signals go down the remote programming cable which is
compatible with a standard 5-wire DMX512 cable.
REMOTE INPUTS:
The remote inputs are optically isolated and respond with a
control signal from 5 to 24 volts DC. The common may be either
positive or negative.
PROGRAMMABLE REMOTE INPUTS:
There are 24 programmable remote inputs. These remote inputs
are programmed on the Timed Actions screen. An additional
section has been added for the inputs, and each input may be
programmed with the same options as a timed event.
CLEANUP INPUTS:
These inputs activate Submasters 1-3. When the input is activated,
it's the same as running a manual Submaster to 100%. Submaster
time functions may be used to control the up and down time.
Operation of this does not affect any cue sequences that are
operating.
GO INPUTS:
There are four Go inputs, these are the same as the go buttons
on the console. One input is supplied for each of the four faders.
STANDBY INPUT:
When standby is activated, all outputs go to level 0. The cues will
continue to sequence, but no lights will be on.
EFFECTS:
Special effects my be used. All timing functions must be
programmed into the effect. The effect master is fixed at full.

REMOTE INPUT MIMIC:
The 24 remote inputs are mimicked with front panel switches and
LED's. When a remote input is activated the corresponding LED
will light. The remote function may be manually activated by
pressing the corresponding button on the front panel.
Note: The LED will function even if there is no function programmed
on the input. For the Show Controller to respond to the input, the
input must be programmed on the Timed Actions screen.
