The Unison Mosaic Show Controllers™ 1 and 2 offer many built-in
interface options. When those are not enough, you can add on up to
two Mosaic Expansion Modules per MSC1 or 2 – each specific to a
protocol or purpose.
Unison Mosaic Expansion Modules
APPLICATIONS
• Integration with 3rd Party control products
• Interface with Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI)
control systems
FEATURES
• DMX Input Expansion Module - allows one or more
MSC’s to be controlled by any DMX512-compatible system.
Configure DMX channels as triggers for intensity or color
control.
• RS485 Expansion Module - allows one or more Mosaic
Show Controllers to receive and generate serial command
strings
• Audio Expansion Module - manipulates intensity, color, and
timeline playback for sound-to-light effects.
• Timecode Expansion Module - reads all Linear Timecode
(LTC) formats including film, PAL/EBU, NTSC, and SMPTE so
that you can synchronize your design with audiovisual or
show-control equipment.
• DALI Master Expansion Module - Control up to 128 Digital
Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI) ballasts per Mosaic
Show Controller.
• DALI Slave Expansion Module - Use the DALI protocol to
trigger one or more Mosaic Show Controllers.
GENERAL
• ETL/cETL Listed
• CE Compliant
