    ERCO specialises in software and hardwarefor architectural lighting design. First andforemost, ERCO sells light and not luminaires.This approach, which places the immaterialsoftware of light above the l uminaire hard-ware, has characterised our work for manyyears: thats why we call ourselves ERCO, theLight Factory.

    Light interprets spaces and helps us to per-ceive and experience them. In this sense, weunderstand light as the fourth dimension ofarchitecture.

    Making good architecture even better byplacing it in the right light is our contribu-tion to culture and the senses and our mis-sion. Today, ERCO provides light in museums,

    universities, shop windows, churches, air-ports, hotels, chain stores, exhibitions stands,administration buildings, private homes, andmuch more. Irrespective of whether the archi-tectural concept emphasises functionalityor presentation: our goal is, and has alwaysbeen, to find a solution that does justice tothe specific use and architectural featuresof each project.

    ERCOs indoor luminaires, outdoor lumi-naires and lighting control systems make upa comprehensive range of lighting equipmentfor general, comprehensive, architecturallighting solutions. The luminaire is a lig htingtool, a piece of lighting equipment with aspecial practical purpose.

    The fundamental change is currently expe-rienced in lighting technology due to newlamps, new optical systems, new digitally net-worked control gear and the appropriate soft-ware. This opens up undreamt-of possibilities,a concept which we have encapsulated in theterm Tune the light. This brochure introducesthese new scenographic dimensions of light-ing and hopes to provide inspiration for thesuccessful, creative use of our hardware andsoftware tools.

    A new design dimen-sion: light can interpretarchitecture in manydifferent ways to createa genuine experience.

    hitectural lighting has reached a tech-ogical turning point: after a phase ofreasing specialisation, differentiation andprovement of lighting equipment, we nowd new lamps, new optical systems andw digital control equipment at the thresh-of market maturit y. These changes resulthe design and construction of luminairest are increasingly and dynamically able to

    ange their characteristics including bright-s or light colour and soon also be am direc-

    n and light intensity distribution. Controltocols such as the DALI technology enablese luminaires to be connected to networkst allow individual addressability and group-independent of the power supply. The

    ult: multiple architectural lighting optionsmultifunctional rooms.As a consequence, the lighting design tasks changed. Instead of creating a specifichting situation and implementing it basedthe installations in the room, it now setsstage for virtual architectural lighting:ms that can be transformed and repro-

    ced in numerous ways with new effects;hitecture that can constantly be inter-ted in new ways. Software becomes anegral part of a lighting system. It providesuser interface for the variable luminairections and also creates a level of abstrac-

    n to define groups of luminaires and spatialnes completely independent of the circuitangement. The software provides functionst enable lighting effects to be produced ine and space. The realisation of this vision

    virtually unlimited, individual adaptabilityight is embodied in our catchphrase Tunelight.

    With the ERCO Light System DALI, its inte-grated Light Studio software and the exten-sive range of Light Clients, i.e. DALI-compat-ible luminaires, the ERCO Program alreadycontains all the tools required to explore thepossibilities of this leap in technology and useit successfully in practical applications. Whenused as intended, these tools make sceno-graphic lighting design easier to plan, moreeconomical in implementation and more con-venient to use than ever before. All that isrequired is to question outmoded ways ofthinking and approaches to design and toembark on the adventure of using light todesign space, time and atmosphere in archi-tecture in new, creative ways. This brochure

    hopes to inspire you and set you on your way.

    enography in its origin is closely linkedh the design of stage se ts. Recently, how-r, this term has also taken on othe r mean-s: defined as the design of the visual andtial dimension of scenic events, the strat-es and methods of scenography can beplied not only to the theatre but also tom, television, functions, exhibitions and,t least, to architecture from individualms to entire buildings and even effectivehlights for urban spaces. Light is the keyscenography, for the possibilities of stylingms with light are virtually endless. Light

    ows architecture to be continually reinter-ted. Designing and controlling such trans-mations with the inclusion of the time

    mension, we refer to as scenographic li ght.ese particular hardware and software toolsow light to interact with space and timeulting in the atmosphere being integratedo a coherent scenography.Architectural lighting has always bene-d from the transfer of ideas and technol-

    y developed by scenographers and lightingigners for the stage as well as for movies,

    p concerts or other events. There are, how-r, crucial differences between these twods of lighting design. Specifically in termstechnology, they both require differentls in order to produce seamless transitions.

    tectural lighting does not separate actorsfrom audience or stage from auditorium. Aprofessional stage actor, for example, mayhave to put up with glare; whereas for usersof architecture, this would not be acceptable.

    Whether on stage or in architecture, bothforms of scenographic light share one simi-larity: it follows a sequence or a plot, whichtogether with the impressions gained by theother senses, conveys a message both on arational and an emotional level.

    Architectural lightinguses lighting effectstaken from stage light-ing, particularly forspecial events. Other

    functions, however,require lighting equip-ment and systemsdesigned specificallyfor architecture.

    In the case of lighting design for stage pro-ductions and events which can often t akeseveral hours and require continuous super-vision by a technician, architectural lightingis expected to work unsupervised, uninter-rupted and over much longer periods of time.Maintenance intervals and energy consump-tion are critical cost factors. Routinely, opera-tion is left to non-prof essionals who as usersinteract with the architecture. The key fund-amental difference in concept is that archi-

    The variety of lightqualities coupled withspatial structure andtimed progression, canbe used to constantlyreinterpret rooms andobjects.

    cenographic lightanning technology application

    The technology of theLight System DALI sim-plifies the planning andrealisation of sceno-

    graphic architecturallighting systems. Tunethe light is possiblewhere lighting controlsystems previouslyproved too expensive,too space-consumingor too complex.

    Digitally controlledluminaires such as theGrasshopper projectorswith LEDs in white orvarychrome are just thebeginning of a develop-ment that will lead to

    lighting equipmentwith increasingly flex-ible functions.

    nographic light provides architects andhting designers with the opportunity toome more critically and creativelyolved in the processes, i.e. spatial anded sequences, more than ever before. Thenographic approach requires a combina-n consisting of a control systems togetherh individually addressable luminaires. This

    ows new possibilities of responding morenamically to both external and internaltors in the design of architecture, while

    ways allowing reversibility. Now light canused to more easily interact with natured the environment, with urban features,h surfaces of structured space, to reveal

    values and image of b rands as well as toate themes and portray sequential eventsd also to support the particular activitieshost and visitors.The interdisciplinary character of a sceno-phic approach to design also involvesnning methods that originate from relatedds such as film, advertising or stageign: Tune the light, in the final analysis,o means exploiting this new creative free-m and using it to full advantage.

    As the Light Studiosoftware simplifies theoperation of the LightSystem DALI, designers

    are able to concentrateon the creative chal-lenges and the newpossibilities of sceno-graphic design.

    Scenographic lightInfrastructure

    e breakthrough of scenographic light ise predominantly to the emergence of newhnology. Scenographic concepts have beend in architectural lighting for some timeut always with considerable investmentsnstallation and material and with tech-ogy that has been defined primarily by itsts either in building management or stage

    gineering.

    ht System DALIe lighting control system ERCO Lighttem DALI, on the other hand, is specifically

    veloped for scenographic architecturalhting and follows an innovative approach:elligently applied DALI (Digital Addressablehting Interface) technology for individu-y addressable luminaires combines with theCO Light Studio software to create an inte-ted package. Together with the extensivege of DALI-compatible ERCO luminaires

    indoors and outdoors and the ERCO DALIck, scenographic light effects in architec-e can be implemented more easily and

    onomically than ever before.New standards in terms of ease of oper-on, range of functions and creative con- are set by the consistent integration oftware and hardware. Thus, for example,colour location of DALI-compatible Vary-ome luminaires in the ERCO Light Studio

    n now be set interactively and displayeda simple and straightforward format by

    mere click of the mouse. Once a system isivated, both the Light Server and the soft-re automatically recognise DALI-compat-e ERCO luminaires known as Light Clientshrough their pre-programmed codes in theLI control gear, which are then clearly dis-yed. DALI-compatible luminaires of othernufacturers can also be integrated into a

    Light System DALI and can then be controlledjust as easily as ERCO Light Clients. The LightServer 64 for up to 64 DALI addresses enablesthe Light System to handle many typ ical light-ing control applications, as in multifunctionalrooms, shops and shop windows, restaurants,lobbies or company showrooms. The LightServer 64+ can be networked with other LightServers of the same type which allows thesystem to be expanded to virtually any size.

    Light System DALI consists of the hardwarecomponents Light Server and Light Changerand the Light Studio software. The LightServer is a DALI controller that stores systemand scene data and provides the cont rol func-tions. The day-to-day operation is performedthrough the wall-mounted control panelERCO Light Changer or commercial push-buttons. To set up light scenes and for morecomplex operations, designers or users canuse the ERCO Light Studio software on a PC

    connected to the Light Server or the LightChanger via a USB connection. The LightServer uses the DALI protocol to communi-cate with the Light Clients, i.e. the connectedDALI-compatible luminaires, via a two-corecontrol line. The bus technology and theswitch and dimming functions integratedinto the control gear make a permanent wir-ing of individual circuits and the installationof vast dimmer banks in switch cabinetsunnecessary. With DALI track accessories,the well-established and reliable ERCO trackis ideal for the operation of DALI-compatibleERCO spotlights via Light System DALI.

    Unlike the design and development of staticlighting concepts, scenographic lightingdesign requires additional preliminary plan-ning. The tools "storyboard" and "moodboard"introduced in the following pages have beenused extensively to solve similar tasks in otherdisciplines including film, advertising, andstage setting.

    StoryboardIf a scenographic lighting design is to be suc-cessful as an integral part of the overall archi-tectural project, designers must look at theintended dynamic lighting sequences inthe building at an early stage in the designprocess. These sequences result from aspects

    such as the spatial progression encounteredas you walk through the building, but alsofrom the time dimension experienced in aroom throughout the course of a day. Changesin use and varying ambient conditions requiredifferent lighting effects at different times. Astoryboard is the correct tool helping design-

    he lit entrance con-ts with the darkoundings at night.

    ers with the design of scenographic lightingconcepts. Its rough sketches act as a creativescript for the spatial and perceptional pro-gression of the lighting effects. The meansof representation, the style and the depth ofdetail are, of course, left to the designer thesketches should, however, include the rele-vant properties of the light such as brightnessand colour contrasts.

    The spatial progression can move fromthe facade through the entrance area andthe traffic zones to the various functionalrooms. The perceptional change in a restau-rant, for example, can be based on differentmoods, such as reception in daylight, dinnerwith accent lighting on the tables, and cock-

    tail hour with subtle, yet atmospheric back-ground lighting.

    The interaction of light, time and spaceprovides all the components through whichthe dynamics of light are directly linked withthe architecture resulting in spaces which canbe used with great flair.

    Scenographic lightPlanning tool moodboard

    a tool for the visualisation and communi-ion of moods, moodboards take on a keye in the creative process. They are used topture impressions, describe emotions, formains of association and stimulate the imag-tion.A free collage on a pin board, for example,ased on a central theme in the fo rm of ature or a concept and made up of pictures,tches, materials, colours and buzzwords.create different moods as special effects room, the motifs can be systematicallyuped in themes to concentrate on inter-ing contrasts. In this way, the lightingigner can underline the conceptual state-nt with a moodboard for each different

    ht scene.

    Example: a fresh morn-ing. The moodboardproduces a light sceneusing diffuse, cool lightwith sparing, highlyfocused warm whiteaccents.

    While the moodboard initially focuses on thestraightforward collection of pictures andthe free flow of thoughts to collate themes,the process of evaluation and concentrationis more analytical. The pictures provide infor-mation on the required light properties andeffects: the advantage of diffuse light asopposed to transitions full of contrast andshadows, the tendency toward specific lightcolours with pastel or saturated tones, andideas for specific light effects. Silhouetteson photos, for example, can be prod uced inthe lighting design through projected light-ing effects.

    Light moods depicted and outlined as lightscenes using moodboards can be integrated

    seamlessly into the sequence and spatialorganisation of the storyboard.

    Example: a Mediter-ranean autumn after-noon. The moodboardproduces a light scenewith warm, directed,but soft-edged lightand red backgroundlighting.

    ighting concepts for gardens, parks oren areas specifically, but not exclusively,cenographic approach must allow for theeraction of artificial light and environmen-factors such as the weather and naturalht. The appearance of vegetation changesntinuously throughout the day and thesons. Sunlight gives trees great liveliness,wind in the leaves creates moving shadow

Instead of illu-

    nating the entire garden or park uniformly,tdoor lighting concepts focus on identify-the paths using a storyb oard as an out-

    e and specifically emphasising individualments while maintaining the character ofdarkness. Low levels of illuminance here

    egrate harmoniously into the night scene

    and help the eyes adapt through the reducedluminance contrasts.

    The direction of light greatly influenceshow the shape of illuminated trees is per-ceived and should therefore be consistentwith their anticipated growth. Carefullyarranged luminaires with high cut-off anglesprotect passers-by from glare at night. Theprevention of spill light and glare is a pre-

    requisite in the interests of meeting effectivelighting solutions for Dark Sky requirements.The natural spectacle in the sky is then leastaffected and can form the background to thedisplayed vegetation on the ground.

    Coloured light can be used to enhance thecolour effect of leaves and flowers. Subtleshifts in the colour temperature can changethe atmosphere, yet maintain a naturalimpression. Strong-coloured light, on theother hand, creates an artificial mood pro-duced, for example, for special occasions.Colour-mixing luminaires such as theGrasshopper varychrome projectors enhancecreativity, as they allow smooth, dynamiccolour transitions to take place. In this way,the drama of light can provide a narrativetheme for a park.

Light scenes selected on the basis ofsituation provide the right setting, noty functionally but also in terms of atmos-ere, in order for the surroundings to ben in the best possible light. In addition,ed light scenes provide the possibility ofng the same lighting system to add dif-ent effects to outdoor spaces and archi-ture which may depend on the season ornt and thus increase the quality of the

    perience of spaces or interpret the themesa spatial concept. The Light Timer softwaredule allows events to be defined in a struc-

    e similar to that of a calendar and allocateht scenes to set times.

    High-power LEDs have a power consumptionfrom approx. 1W. Their extremely long life,compact design and excellent luminous effi-cacy in connection with narrow-beam spotreflector lens systems make these LEDs a pow-erful light source for accent lighting. Hous-ings with optimised heat dissipation ensurethat the advantages of LEDs are ensured dur-ing use and are maintained throughout thelife of the luminaire. Due to their high colourdensity, coloured high-power LEDs are idealfor RGB colour mixing. To facilitate the seam-less integration of dynamic, coloured LEDlighting into a scenography, ERCO producesthe appropriate varychrome luminaires as

    Light Clients with DALI interface.

    A scene list providesthe option of settingindividual fading timesfor each scene. Fadingtimes can be secondsor even span severalhours.

    Modelling objectsAlong with the angle of incidence, one ofthe key factors in modelling is the directionof the light. Light from the front has thesame direction as the line of vision of theviewer and consequently has little model-ling effect. It produces hardly any shadow,and the objects appear flat. Lateral light, onthe other hand, leads to maximum contrasts

    of light and shadow resulting in a strongthree-dimensionality. Light from above shin-ing directly onto the object can over accen-tuate the top while often causing the sidesto appear excessively dark and leaving a lightbeam on the ground. Back light, where thelight source is placed behind the object, castsa long shadow in the direction of the viewerand reveals the object as a dark silhouettesurrounded by a halo of light. Lig ht shiningonto areas and objects from below producesan unnatural effect due to it being in theopposite direction to daylight. At the sametime, however, the reverse direction of theshadows can create dramatic effects.

    ce civilisation began to conquer the dark-s by using artificial light, the dazzling pic-e of a metropolis at nig ht has had a magi-effect on people. After a long phase ofling with light in outdoor situations on

    ational and purely functional level, citiesnow revived with special effects. Light-master plans ensure a consistent appear-

    ce of a metropolis at night. Buildings with

    ferentiated illumination signify the nighte urban identity. Light in the city is used

    mark out paths and routes, light up spacesd highlight landmarks both over greattances in terms of the cit ys skyline and in

    more local context in the city itself.The design options range from the subtle,form illumination of facades to defineces and make tangible their spatial con-

    es even in the dark, to expressive, tempo-y lighting concepts for festive occasions.e principle frequently applied here is thatess is more, because only subdued basic

    ht in the background can create contrastsough light that bring squares or build-s to prominence. Scenographic elements

    ould concentrate on prominent buildingsspecific situations in public spaces: as amponent of special effects used for events

    and particular occasions, but also in responseto the different usages which relate to thetime of day, the season and the weat her. Thelighting concept can be varied in terms of itsdesign including light colour, brightness ordirection of light, within the scope of a lightdramaturgy, to allow an urban space to becontinuously reinterpreted.

    Different types of buildings require differ-

    ent lighting design approaches. In principle,solid facades require different methods thantransparent facades. As an alternative to theextensive lighting of massive facades, spe-cific building elements can be accentuatedthrough their contours. Glass architecturelit from within, on the other hand, appearsto glow. At night, glass facades which reflectdaylight are given the effect of depth due tothe dimension of visibility within. The faadestructure here appears to be a silhouettearound the core of the building. The lightingconcept inside is effectively carried to theoutside and a lighting concept on the out-side must ensure cohesion. The more theboundaries between interior and exterior dis-solve through the transparency of the shell ofthe building, the more strongly the lightingdesign requires a holistic approach.

    ht plays a central and multifaceted role inhitectural design. It is light that allows ussee space and structure in the first place;

    d it is lighting that makes architecture andpeople, objects and materials in it becomeble. Yet more than making things visible,

    ht also determines the way we perceive ourvironment. It influences our well-being and

    aesthetic effect and emotional atmos-ere of a room. Contrasts in brightness andferent light colours can establish hierar-es of perception and focal points i n a room.Lighting design must start with the ele-nts that define a room , such as the walls,or, ceiling, and openings. Placed in theht light, they emphasise the shape andaracter of the architecture and provide ackground for the objects illuminated in thece.

    Walls and other vertical elements in partic-r are important for the perception of archi-ture. Illuminated walls give the impressiona light, open space, they str ucture the archi-

    tecture and make the room proportions andsurfaces easier to appreciate. A uniform lightdistribution from ceiling to floor presents the

    wall as an entity.Accents on the ceiling result in a different

    impression, a changed room character. Lightcan draw attention to the ceili ng which isuseful for features such as historic frescos orstucco work where the attention of the occu-pants is to be directed upward, o r it can serveas indirect lighting for the room. Fitted witha lighting control system for separate con-trol of the luminance levels of individual roomsurfaces, the appearance of a room can bechanged within broad limits simply by usingdifferent light scenes.

    While extensive areas on a wall are usuallyilluminated by wallwashers, ceilings are fre-quently illuminated with ceiling washlightsor as luminous ceilings. The diffuse, overheadlight of the latter is often combined with day-light entering through rooflights to look likethe diffuse light of an ov ercast sky.

    Furthermore, the lighting should underlinethe theme of the sequence of spaces. Con-trasts can visually divide rooms, while uni-

    form illuminance creates continuity. Theestablishment of spatial correlations withlight is not limited merely to the connec-tion of interior spaces. It also provides thetransition between exterior and interio r, asin entrance areas, for example, or in a homelooking out into the garden.

    The Client list in LightStudio contains all theLight Clients (DALI-compatible luminaires)of the DALI system.Light Clients can begrouped and allocatedto zones and controlgear.

    Light used to differentiate spacesLight conveys information, for brightly litareas automatically attract attention. Differ-ent levels of brightness ensure improved ori-entation in the room and can e mphasise areassuch as the foreground, the centre or the back-ground. A suitable light intensity distributiondirects the attention and structures the wealthof information in a space: areas with key infor-mation are highlighted, secondary or irrele-vant information, on the other hand, is keptin the background through lower lighting lev-els. The significance of the effect depends onthe brightness contrast between surfaces, i.e.between the object and the surroundings.

    Lamps and colour spaceAll the colours perceptible to the human eyecan be represented as a structure using thestandard valency system of the CIE (chroma-ticity diagram). The brightness dimension isdisregarded and only the shade and satura-tion of the colours are depicted in this dia-gram. The saturation increases from the whitezone in the centre toward the edges. Whenthe colour loci of the red, green and blue lightsources used are connected, the resulting tri-angle shows all the colours that can be pro-duced with a RGB colour mixing luminaire.

    This symbol identifiesvarychrome luminaireswith RGB colour mixingtechnology that canbe electronically con-trolled to produce aninfinite variety of lightcolours.

    Light Studio: chromatic circleColoured luminaires and other installationswith RGB technology, if used effectively,require a lighting control system that controlsthe dimmer settings of the individual colourlight sources allowing a reproduction of spe-cific light colours. These can subsequentlybe integrated into meaningful scenes andsequences. Light colours are easy to set using

    software with a chromatic circle, as the col-our, such as orange, can be selected withoutthe need to use the three individual dimmersettings of red, green and blue. The choice ofcolours is facilitated by a range of predefinedcolours. The colour attribute in Light Studio isset interactively, either via the HSB/chromaticcircle or the RGB settings. The HSB colourmodel defines each colour in terms of hue,saturation and brightness. The brightness isalways defined separately, while hue and sat-uration can be set either in the chromatic cir-cle or by means of two slider controls. RGBhues are entered numerically between 0 and255 for each basic colour.

These changesrequire the use of lighting equipment thatprovides light not merely as a static medium,but as a dynamic means used to expressspace, time and atmosphere. In a LightSystem DALI environment, the zoning ofshop floor, for example, can be displayed bydifferent brightness levels and rearranged

    as required in the Light Studio sof tware.Coloured light can be subtle, such as pasteltones used to illuminate the back of a win-dow with wallwashers, or striking in theform of richly coloured accent lighting.

    Effects such as dynamic colour sequencesattract the viewers attention as an excep-tional eye-catcher and reveal the atmospherein the shop to be in a state of flux. Varychromeluminaires, individually controlled via DALI,enable lighting designers and window dress-ers to set up and change these effects inter-actively with the easy-to-use tools in LightStudio without constantly having to adaptthe lighting hardware through a long andlaborious process. Specific light qualities orlight scenes can be reproduced precisely andsubsequently be realised simultaneously incases such as chain stores. Light scenes canbe organised in timed sequences using the

    calendar-like Light Timer software module.In this way, different times of the day, week-days and holidays and even entire periodssuch as the sales or the pre-Christmas seasoncan be differentiated by means of lighting.The advantages of a lighting control systemsuch as Light System DALI, which integratesthe functions even of complex lightingequipment like RGB colour changing lumi-

    naires and controls them through the LightStudio software, are self-evident here.

    DALI dimmers and DALI actuatorsDALI dimmers and DALI switch actuatorsgreatly increase the application options ofLight System DALI. They allow a wide rangeof conventional luminaires such as those inERCOs previous range to be integrated intoa Light System DALI installation. This is par-ticularly useful for luminaires without con-trol gear or for lamps for which DALI controlgear is not yet available, including most of thehigh-intensity discharge lamps.

    Light System DALI is an open system:DALI-compatible luminaires or actuatorsfrom other manufacturers can also be incor-porated into the system. Conversely, ERCOLight Clients, i.e. DALI-compatible luminaires,

    are suitable for operation with DALI controlsof other manufacturers. However, only whenthe Light System DALI, the Light Studio soft-ware and the ERCO Light Clients are combineddoes the full potential and advantage of thisdesign system such as automatic setup andautomatic recognition become available.

Itsmain function is to create zones and assignLight Clients or Light Changers to zones. Floo rplans can be created in the stage template ofthe Light Book. A zone can consist of a room,functional areas or several rooms. The flexiblestructure of Light System DALI allows zonesto overlap this means that a Light Client canbelong to several zones. Shop design epito-mises the purpose of defining zones: if, forexample, the shop facade, the windows andthe sales area are defined as individual zones,the light scenes in these zones can be set upand recalled irrespective of what is happen-ing around them.

    Events largely rely on the creative use of lightand on the interaction with and between peo-ple. The lighting communicates the themesand motifs of the event and supports itsproduction with a progressive sequence ofscenes. Versatile, dynamic lighting can bothconjure up details out of the magical dark-ness or veil rooms in light of changing coloursto create an experience that evokes a state of

    fluidity. Individual lighting effects contrastwith the surroundings and attract attention.This is light to observe" , light which has nopractical application, e.g. creating a grandentrance as an aesthetic spectacle, an emo-tional impact, able to captivate and aston-ish its audience. Atmosphere, traditionallycreated by means of chandeliers and candle-light, can now be produced by more modernmeans such as through the projection of pat -terns and pictures using gobos and stencilsmade of sheet metal or glass.

    With the introduction of varychrome lumi-naires and other individually addressableLight Clients in a Light System DALI installa-tion, the transition between everyday andevent lighting now becomes fluid. This is dueto the change from the laborious setup oftemporary show lighting to the establishmentof different light scenes and light programs

    in the Light Studio software. Compared tostandard lighting, event lighting works with amore intense dramaturgy and colour mood toproduce the desired effect and get it to unfoldover a specific period of time.

    To create memorable experiences at eventsor at restaurants, the light must create theright atmosphere at the right time. Each ele-ment throughout the evening has its own

    light scenes to correspond with the activitiesof the occupants, i.e. the hosts and t he guests:from light suitable for welcoming and becom-ing acquainted to light for listening, light forcocktails, light for the meal, and light for danc-ing and celebrating. Tune the light invitesyou to exercise this new, creative freedomusing light to create constantly new, strikinglight sequences from a single technical infra-structure.

    Light Clients on theDALI trackFlexible lighting withspotlights on track isindispensable for eventlighting. With DALI liveends, the ERCO trackbecomes a DALI trackthat allows ERCO LightClients to be operatedwith DALI adapters.

    The combination ofcoloured light andprojection producesinteresting and variedlighting effects. Oneapproach is colouredbackground lightingwith an overlay ofwhite gobo patterns.

    Light at events is sim-ilar to stage lighting except that it doesnot separate the actorsfrom the audience. Theexpression here is to eeand be seen.

    Colour filtersThe classic method of creating coloured lightis by using colour filters as attachments.Interference colour filters feature a relativelyhigh transmission factor and a high colourdensity, due to the clear separation of thereflecting and transmitting spectral ranges.ERCO provides four standard colour filters asnatural light colours for architectural light-

    ing. These are derived from the colours oflight found in nature: Amber for the sunrise,Sky Blue as the sky by d ay, Magenta for thesunset, and Night Blue for t he night sky. Otherfilter colours can be custom-made on request.

    Light Studio: Light TimerThe Light Timer allows numerous lightscenes to be recalled automatically at pre-determined times. The light scenes areassigned to specific sections of the event.These sections can be interpreted using manydifferent light scenes for a short sequenceor for a longer period. Cyclical events suchas festive lighting at weekends or on specificweekdays can also ideally be controlled usingthe Light Timer.

    Projection effects with contour spotlightsStella contour spotlights with a projectionlens produce a sharp-edged beam. The con-tour attachment (1) ensures a sharp projec-

    tion of freely adjustable triangular and squareshapes. The lens is focused by turning t he lensholder ring (2). The version for QT12 100Wlow-voltage halogen lamps is also available asa Light Client with DALI adapter and can inte-grate dimmable projection effects into a LightSystem DALI environment.

    Light Studio: scene listA light scene defines the colour or dimmersettings of each light source in the room. Forevent lighting, the light scenes are designedto match the sequence of the event. Thescene list in the Light Studio is used to organ-ise light scenes. With appropriate names, thescenes can be sorted and arranged using t hesearch function.
