Do any of the individual ILS enabled lights have receivers built in in order to work wirelessly with the Command or do you still need to buy a USB dongle for each light?
The battery powered intimidator moving head and the gigbars have wireless built in, it’s cheaper for us to offer it as an extra than add it into the fixture, keeps costs down for us, thus keeping them down for you guys also😊
It’s a software thing under development this console isn’t really show ready yet but is definitely getting there with the software updates were getting
Are you able to control different lighting fixtures separately.. let’s say I want one par to be red and the other par to be blue or one moving head to behave differently than the other? The colors on ILS command board are we limited to select those colors only how can we mix and choose other colors? Thank you!
@@sazprodj hi! You can’t set them to do different things, but you can create a 4 colour chase with the macro buttons and customise what colours you’d like it to scroll through, The auto mode has some bits where the two pads are different colours tho 😊
This controller and the ILS system is way over hyped. First the unit itself is way oversized... it has a huge footprint and oversized controls. For as big as this thing is, you'd think they could have selector buttons that weren't incorporated into the jog wheel. It's difficult to use the wheel without accidentally selecting menu items. The jog wheels are also cumbersome to use. They should gone with a joystick instead. There is no physical manual. You must have online access for the pdf. Instructions are very limited. You must again have online access and hunt down videos to get instructions on how to get this thing to work with your devices. You pay more for the devices that are supposed to work with this system...only they don't really work until you spend more for the d-fi mods for each unit. The chase patterns are limited. Especially if you are going to use this with a 4bar or additional pars. Only 6 presets? Yeah, for the money this whole system seems poorly executed.
what if i want to control various lights from other companies using the DMX out?
Hi,
This will not work I’m afraid, only ILS compatible fixtures

You need to get one for each light or use dmx port that comes out the back of the console and just wire it normally

does it work with the regular Chauvet DJ GigBar Move
Yes!
As long as it has ILS in the name it will work :)
im not sure to get this yet ...you mentioned 'in the future you will be able to use follow spot; do you mean you aint programmed the update yet ?

yeah will probably get one once they sort that issue@@matlightfxproductions
The followspot mode is now in, has been for about 5 months… really really cool feature!
