ETC's Lonestar Prime, MegaPix, and GigaPix fixtures now feature a Multiverse Connect Module Port, for plug-in wireless DMX when connected with City Theatrical’s Multiverse® Connect Modules. The chassis of the device plugs into the fixture, and with a few menu changes, the fixture becomes wireless.
Multiverse Connect Modules are compact devices that bring full Multiverse wireless DMX/RDM capability to lighting fixtures built by OEM manufacturing partners, provided the fixture includes a Multiverse Connect Module Port.
