ARRI SkyLink Receiver

The perfect wireless solution for ARRI SkyPanels is now available. Say goodbye to DMX cables with SkyLink.

ARRI and Innovative Dimmers have teamed up to create SkyLink: a two-part system that allows for wireless DMX and RDM communication to SkyPanels and L-Series luminaires. The SkyLink Receiver and the SkyLink Base Station use LumenRadio for DMX/RDM communication and a WiFi chip in the Base Station allows for direct control from a DMX control application on a tablet or computer. Setting up a control network has never been easier.

Wifi to Wireless DMX
The real wireless magic happens in the Skylink Base Station. Armed with two wirelss chips,the Skylink Base Station can communicate LumenRadio's wireless DMX (CRMX) and the international standard of Wifi. Therefore a tablet or computer can communicate, via wifi , to the Skylink base Station which can , in turn , communicate the reliable CRMX standard to the Skylink Receiver on the Skypanel. This communication chai supports new and simple ways of controlling one or many Skypanels and L-Series.

DMX plus RDM - Total Control
ARRI LED products have always included an excellent implementation of RDM (Remote Device Management ) in addition to the DMX protocols. RDM allows for two-way communication with the fixture and enables the ability to change all settings on the lamp head remotely. The Skylink system is fully RDM capable and allows for complete control over all aspects of the Skypanel and L-Series Fresnels.

Compact and Rugged Design
The Skylink Receiver has a unique, compact and robust design that fits perfectly within the Skypanel family. The Skylink is one of the smallest Wireless DMX receivers on the market and is designed specifically with the Skypanel in mind. The swivel DMX connector allows for the Skylink Receiver to be rotated 180degree in order to achieve the best signal strength regardless of the Skypanel or L-series orientation

Outstanding Range
The reliable wireless DMX in skylink allows for strong and consistent communication to the fixtures. With an outstanding range of 150m (500ft) Skylink performs well on stage with typical obstructions. In optimal conditions , for example direct line of sight , the skylink can receive a signal up to 400 m (1300 ft. ) away. This allows for dramatically increased freedom on set while still maintaining complete control over the Skypanels and L-Series Fresnels.
