Astera System
A smart (bi-directional) control system where Infrared remote, wireless DMX and app work together to enable big setups that can be set up, monitored and adjusted in a fast and convenient way.
Control Lights
Create complex programs out of colors, effects and settings. The lights will remember and repeat these effects without requiring a constant wireless link.
Quickly create groups of lights, assign positions and select which lights should receive commands.
Monitor lights
Keep a complete overview over the status and all settings of your lights while you operate them.
View battery status, radio signal, DMX address and which lights you have targeted.
Diagnose individual lights and even get informed if a light is being moved or switched off.
This works while you control lights by the app but also if lights are controlled via DMX.
Set Up Faster
Set DMX addresses and profiles for one light or several lights.
50 units can be prepared in less than 5 minutes.
After your job, do a quick master reset of all settings and the lights are ready for the next event.
LumenRadio
