On display will be the W-DMX UglyBox MK2. This is a compact new wireless signal tester, which is a valuable tool for users of wireless products, providing proof of a solid signal and peacece of mind in the absence of visible cable.
The UglyBox MK2 is housed in an attractive compact body, resembling a gaming control with a 4.3" Touch LCD Screen, about the size of an iPhone. It supports 2.4GHz, 5.2GHz and 5.8GHz and is a transceiver solution, which means that it can be used as both transmitter and receiver. It has a complete DMX tester that provides all data in live format directly on the screen. It also has a built in DMX Controller as well as an RGB Fixture to simulate LED fixtures on the LCD Screen for quick testing. In history mode you can also see over time that you have a stable signal over a certain period.
The unit runs on a rechargeable Lithium battery for up to 12 hours and has a built-in SD Card reader to save all data for later export to Microsoft Excel. The UglyBox MK2 is geared towards rental and installation companies but useful for anyone. The unit is also designed to update with additional features as they become available.
Also on display is the new W-DMX COB (Chip on Board), a transceiver solution in an ultra compact 6x6mm size. Wireless Solution is the first to launch the SMT mounted Chip On Board Radio Transceiver that supports both DMX and RDM in a QFN48 package.
The new NANO RDM RX is billed as the next phase of Wireless RDM receivers. The NANO RDM RX is a DMX/RDM receiver with full implementation of the RDM protocol and support of the latest G4S software with updated 128-bit encryption and much improved adaptive frequency hopping algorithm that is improved by 200% more accurate reading of the interference noise level.
The BlueBox MK2 is not only a complete RDM Controller but it is also a complete ethernet converter between DMX to Art-Net and S/ACN (and vice versa). On top of this the PC software for the BlueBox MK2 have been upgraded to include several updates including:
But wait, there's more! Wireless Solution will be hosting the infamous Swedish meatball and vodka party on Thursday, 16 April starting at 4pm.
