Chamsys Lighting PC Interfaces

Company History Initially a group of lighting designers and long time lighting product developers got together to develop a new console that would overcome the limits of traditional consoles. ChamSys was formed in April 2003 by bringing together a team of lighting designers, software and hardware developers. ChamSys' mission is to utilise the latest technology to bring developments to the lighting console market: high performance at low cost with high reliability. We are Lighting Designers ChamSys is in the unique position of utilising software developers that are themselves lighting designers. This ingrained knowledge has enabled us to develop a console to meet the needs of the end users rather than the software programmers. Our board of directors have worked in the lighting industry for over 20 years, with varying backgrounds from part owners of lighting hire companies, design consultants on well known products, and lighting designers. Our hardware engineers have had wide experience in all sections of the lighting industry, including laser consoles, moving light systems, industrial and scientific real time control. Our software engineers have worked on many different systems, including lighting products, telecommunications products, and computer systems. We have a high level of experience in developing real time systems where reliability and performance are key requirements. ChamSys staff have played a major role in the development of many successful lighting products including world leading lighting consoles, unique laser controllers, and varied DMX gadgets. MagicQ in action From the formation of ChamSys development has been rapid with the first MagicQ console being tested in live environments in September 2003. Subsequently pre-production consoles were used on a number of major live events at the end of the year, including a massive New Years Eve party in London's Brixton Academy. During 2004 ChamSys worked with Lighting Designers to further fine tune the user interface and facilities. Unlike many companies we decided not to announce the product until we had finished development and had an extensive set of field usage to locate and fix software bugs. The MagicQ range was launched at PLASA 2004 and in the last four years has been sold all around the world. ChamSys has continued to develop new leading edge software hardware - 2006 saw the introduction of an entire range of PC Wings and the Macintosh and Linux versions of MagicQ PC, 2007 saw the launch of the Pro Series of consoles, and 2008 saw the launch of the Execute Wing and Media Timeline Features. Our Commitment ChamSys has a commitment to meeting the needs of lighting professionals using innovative designs and latest technology. Development does not stop at Release 1. The powerful system architecture enables an exciting roadmap of new features to be planned. ChamSys Limited is a company registered in England and Wales, registration number 4705608.

Lighting PC Interfaces

A PC interface for lighting control consoles is a point of interaction between the computer and lighting control consoles, lighting control wing or lighting fixtures. These lighting console wings can be connected to a computer that has lighting control software installed, and will allow for an operator to control lighting directly from the computer. They also have ports for DMX and USB connections. A programmable lightning controller can also be linked to a computer via a PC interface. Full featured lighting console modules, as well as expansion wings like USB programming wing or a USB recording wing, would need PC interface to be able to communicate with the computer via a USB connection. For a DMX lighting control console which operates based on an ESTA (Entertainment Services Technology Association) Standard for controlling lighting equipment and related accessories, a PC interface works the same way. Devices that output DMX signals are connected to the computer via a DMX PC interface. DMX controlled lighting systems are used in concerts, stages, studios, theme parks attractions, and much more. Another type for PC interface is a USB DMX adapter which allows a computer to output DMX to control lighting. Some operators make a USB DMX dongle or DMX dongle for the same purpose.
