ARRI Announces Intelligent Lighting Control App

Published 12th May, 2020

Stellar—ARRI’s lighting control app—has paved a new way for lighting control, complete with a highly intuitive user interface for advanced network configuration and management, Stellar made working with modern LED fixtures easier than ever before.

With Stellar 2, ARRI has taken the next step forward. Third-party products are now able to be controlled with Stellar 2. Other features, such as grouping, have become much more convenient making setups faster and more flexible.

Control of third-party luminaries

Stellar 2 is ready to control luminaries from other manufacturers including Litegear, Astera, and Kino Flo. A set of generic dimmers can even be set up to work with tungsten lights (on a DMX dimmer). With Stellar 2, the correct DMX addresses can be assigned to the luminaries in only a couple of steps.

Swap out fixtures

If any fixture needs to be swapped out, possibly due to malfunction, it can be easily exchanged without affecting the setup. A re-scan will detect it, if the fixture has not been in the setup before.

Grouping of different CCT ranges

With Stellar 2, it is now possible to group fixtures with different CCT ranges. The fixture with the smallest range takes precedence while all the other ranges are cropped.

Intensity

Stellar 2 is able to accommodate a variety of unique requirements. Apply personal value as the default intensity by simply storing it as a favorite in the app settings. The intensity will also remain at the same level throughout all modes.

Additional fixture data

If a fixture can provide these RDM functionalities, temperature and mode information will be displayed in the fixture setups.

In Stellar 2, several smaller enhancements have been introduced including: a trial phase expiry warning, smoother looks application when no color mode change is necessary, improved connectivity handling, presets that apply on different fixtures, and minor usability, layout, and stability improvements.
