Introduction

This is a beginning entry dedicated to the light setup in Diedenoort-NURDSpace. Original configuration: The three wall switches by the front door operate, from left to right: The ventilation The right-hand bank of lights (with back to door) including the 3 on the hook around the corner The left hand bank of lights

Current configuration

  • The left hand switch is for the single emergency light on the left closest to the door.
  • The right hand switch does nothing.
  • The fluorescent bulbs are connected together into 4 numbered groups:
    1. The 6 in the dead centre of the space
    2. The 2 over the printer desks (currently disabled)
    3. The 3 over the desks at the far windows
    4. The 5 closest to the door, on the near side of the I-beam, excluding the emergency light (only 2 of them are currently working).

These 4 channels are plugged into the lighting controller suspended in a white iron grid from the ceiling. This is plugged into a ceiling socket on a ? electrical group.

DMX

The DMX devices are currently configured as follows:

  • Controller: Lanbox currently underneath the Lack by the yellow pipe.
  • Channels 1-4: The small 4x controller on the desks at the far windows
  • Channels 5-8: The strobe lamp
  • Channels 9-12: The main fluorescent bulb controller
  • Channels 32-34: The RGB LED lamp (1) on the top of the yellow pipe
  • Channels 35-37: The RGB LED lamp (2) on the middle of the yellow pipe
  • Channels 38-40: The RGB LED lamp (3) on the wall around the corner
  • Channels 41-43: The RGB LED lamp (4) on the right on the pipes at the far windows
  • Channels 44-46: The RGB LED lamp (5) on the left on the pipes at the far windows
  • Channels 47-49: The RGB LED lamp (6) on the left hand wall.

The DMX cable is wired in the following sequence:

  • Lanbox
  • Strobe
  • RGB1
  • RGB2
  • RGB3
  • (5-->3 conversion)
  • (3-->5 conversion)
  • RGB4
  • (5-->3 conversion)
  • Small 4x controller
  • Fluorescent controller
  • (3-->5 conversion)
  • RGB5
  • RGB6
  • A 120 ohm resistor is used as termination between pins 2 and 3.

Commands

The lights can be operated on #nurds using the following commands:

  • !ziza - Turn off TL tubes.
  • !aziz - Turn on TL tubes.
