Strand Control Systems
The introduction of the NEO lighting control console marks a new chapter
in the evolution of control. This console allows the ability to seize light; to
grab, move, change position, color and motivate the lighting design
simply and effectively. The NEO lighting control console is the closest that
a designer can get to actually touching the light; encompassing the
dreams and aspirations of both professionals and amateurs alike. The
NEO lighting control console starts with the inclusion of many timesaving
features, allowing the user to program faster and more accurately.

Icons and Shutter controls are represented graphically on the display,
saving time and presenting meaningful data to the operator. Floating Windows allow the operator to configure their views their way, making it easier
to find information. Effects are revolutionized, with “Time Line” features, allowing drag and drop to create that perfectly timed sequence.
The show is even secured on a “Mission Critical” grade SQL server, ensuring no data loss in those critical moments. Boot time is massively reduced
with high speed solid state disk drives, making the NEO lighting control console robust for everyday and touring use.
NEO Lighting Control Console
With individually controlled back lit keys, motorized faders, user security system, pixel mapping and media playback: we think you will find the NEO
lighting control console a worthy successor to a proud history of iconic consoles that have had the honor of bearing the Strand Lighting and now
Philips Strand Lighting name.

Philips Advantage DMX
Every NEO lighting control console also benefits from the all new Philips
Advantage DMX model. This concept allows you to patch Philips
Entertainment and Color Kinetics brand luminaires without consuming
the console’s purchased DMX outputs. It does not matter if you own or
rent the luminaires; as long as the one of the supported Philips brands.
With Philips Advantage DMX, you can control thousands of Philips
luminaires at no additional cost or output license limitations.
Philips Advantage DMX Overview (example):
● A NEO lighting control console is purchased with 1 universe of
512 DMX outputs.
● The purchased universe of 512 DMX outputs is patched to
dimmers or other DMX-controlled products.
● Philips Entertainment Group luminaires (sold separately) are
patched to any other DMX universe. Philips Entertainment Group
luminaires (regardless if you own or rent them) will not count
against any of the purchased channels unless patched to the
purchased DMX universe.
