Event V3 Operating Manual - Jands

Table Introduction
of Contents
JANDS, one of the world’s leading lighting console manufacturers, now offers the
EVENT PLUS series of control consoles. Equipped with all the outstanding
features of the original Event, the EVENT PLUS offers many new functions and
features. Available in two configurations: 48 and 60 channels, each with 24 Assign
masters and 2 Presets, the EVENT PLUS features a “first” for JANDS - single preset
operation. In today’s lighting rigs there is an increasing emphasis on moving lights
and colour scrollers both of which quickly use up available channels. The EVENT
PLUS’s ability to operate as a single preset board means that it can offer up to 120
channels for programming and playback.
Recording on the EVENT PLUS has been simplified with the addition of One
Touch Recording, simply hold the Record button and press an Assign master flash
button to store a memory to that Assign fader. To make labelling and the addition
of fade times easier, Memories that have been recorded are tagged with an “r” in the
Memory menu.
The EVENT PLUS Page consists of 20 Memories and 1 Chase, the remaining
3 Assign faders are set to control 2 fixed Memories and 1 fixed Chase. However it
is possible to edit the standard Page setup or to Assign any combination of crossfade
Stacks, Chases or Memories to the 24 Assign faders. A further enhancement to the
Assign master section is the ability to use the Hold master as a submaster controlling
all 24 Assign faders.
Output from the console is available via a standard DMX-512 socket or through
optional analogue Socapex connectors, using either method it’s possible to use the
onboard softpatch to create up to 3 different channel to dimmer patching tables.
The EVENT PLUS is a further extension of the committment to ongoing
development which makes JANDS lighting consoles the most exciting and innovative
products available today.
