W-DMX™ by Wireless
Solution Sweden AB recently set sail with W-DMX distributor Iluminacion Profesional VALOOK® SA. based in
Santiago, Chile. The Valdivia boat parade takes place
annually in the south of Chile to celebrate the birth of Valdivia City. Over
150,000 visitors come to see the fireworks and spectacular boat parade over the
Calle Calle River.
For the
backdrop lighting of this stunning event, lighting designer Toni Amorós used 10
W-DMX WhiteBox F-1 G4 Transceivers to send signal to 45 Searchlight Xenon 4Kw placed
on one side of the river with the console placed 350 metres away on the other
side. On the fixture side of the river, the signal was then distributed over 1
km to all of the searchlights. VALOOK
supervised and
supplied all W-DMX equipment.
Francisco Yañez Valdivia, Trainer & Product Manager for
VALOOK explains, “This project would have been impossible without W-DMX. We had no problems during the
3 days of testing and programming. On the day of the show, we changed antennas and
changed the transmission frequency to 5.8 GHz just to avoid any unexpected
interference. This ability is very valuable. Not to mention the IP65 rating of
the WhiteBox when outdoor situations can be uncertain.”
Niclas Arvidsson, CEO of Wireless Solution said, “Valook is continually
impressing us with their creative use of W-DMX in Chile. We look forward to
many more successful projects with them.”
