We have lots of the LD90 racks good workhorse dimmers strewn about the place and some SLD racks aswell.

 

[RF Lighting]

[vsynth]

Electrical/Electronics Engineer, usually to be found fault finding on PLC controlled machinery.

I don't do much installation work though so don't be surprised if I appear to know nothing

 

[tim west]

RF what form of control for the LD's SWC or DMX from desk or controller?
or both? we use both SWC for rigging in the LD90 studios and DMX from desks for shows.

 

[RF Lighting]

That installation is controlled by DMX only.

It's a pros arch style theatre in a university, so isn't utilised perhaps as well as it could be, and as such there is no real need for SWC.

I presume you work / dabble in the theatre industry Tim?
