Challenges and Solutions for modern Lighting Control Systems

More complex fixtures, increasing numbers of parameters, integration of various applications - the list of challenges for lighting programmers and operators barely ends. In this session we will have a look at concepts and solutions of lighting control systems, which can help to reduce the complexity and enrich the workflow and programming experience. On the example of a grandMA3 system, we will learn about programming solutions, useful network functionalities and GDTF, the standard to describe fixture types based on the real-world behavior - all mixed to a complete production workflow.
