How to Light a Stage Network: Top 5 FAQs
1. What is a stage lighting network?
A stage lighting network connects lighting fixtures, consoles, and controllers to create a synchronized lighting system. Protocols like DMX or Art-Net are commonly used for communication.
2. How do I set up a basic stage lighting network?
Start with a lighting console, DMX cables, and fixtures. Connect the console to the first fixture via DMX, then daisy-chain additional fixtures. Ensure proper addressing for each light.
3. What’s the difference between DMX and Art-Net?
DMX is a wired protocol with limited channels, while Art-Net is an Ethernet-based solution offering greater flexibility and scalability for large setups.
4. How do I troubleshoot a stage lighting network?
Check cable connections, addresses, and power. Use terminators for DMX lines and verify network settings for Art-Net. Test fixtures individually if issues arise.
5. What are the best practices for stage lighting networks?
Use quality cables, avoid excessive daisy-chaining, label all connections, and regularly update firmware. Backup your lighting console settings for quick recovery.
