ETC Eos Software Update – Now Eos Range Is Even Better!

The major change for Eos and Ion is a new Virtual Media Server (sometimes referred to as pixel bit mapping) allows the creation of grids of fixtures, to which static and animated images can be applied, with a variety of manipulation tools. Similar to a media server, images can be created or imported created by the user. A second download – Eos Family Pixel Mapping Installer – allows you to add media content to the console for use with the Virtual Media Server.

For all three desks, shielded submasters allows a priority to be assigned to a submaster – a “shield.” When a submaster is shielded, the parameters assigned to that submaster are excluded from any live control other than the submaster. They can’t be played back in cues, and the user can’t user take control of the channel parameters manually.

It is now possible to use the colour- and gel-picker on “non-standard” LED fixtures, such as RGBA or RGBW.

Import of ASCII files from Congo and NT control systems is now supported.

Channel and Address check mode have been added for the RFR (radio focus remote), making it the default screen for the RFR when engaged.

The software can be downloaded from either the product pages on ETC’s website or the downloads page at www.etcconnect.com/downloads.aspx.
Offline or client software should be updated at the same time.

A series of three videos explaining the new features of v1.9.5 is available on the product pages, or in ETC’s YouTube library at www.youtube.com/etcvideolibrary
