Chauvet FCW (Chauvet Lighting FC-W)
Wireless Remote Controller (FC-W)
The FC-W is a wireless remote control designed to activate up to four CHAUVET®
fog machines independently (separate receivers for additional foggers are
required). Two LED indicators display whether the machine is ready or heating.
• Increase flexibility at any event by wirelessly triggering the fog output
in most CHAUVET DJ fog machines
• Eliminates the need for extra plugs by receiving power from the fog machine
• Simplify operation with 2 LED indicators displaying the machine’s state
(heating and ready)
• Triggers up to 4 fog machines separately
• Keep track of your remote with the receiver’s magnetized back plate and
included keychain
• Operating Frequency: 433MHz
• Cable Length: 1ft (0.3m)
• Max Unobstructed Distance: 100ft (30.5m)
• Weight: 0.2lbs (0.1kg)
• Size (Receiver): 3.2 x 1.9 x 1.1in (80 x 48 x 29mm)
• Size (Transmitter): 2.3 x 1.5 x 0.5in (58 x 39 x 14mm)
The range is very good. I can stand outside a party and usually get the fogger to work inside. The 4 different channels are handy, and the way the remote activates the fogger works very efficiently (it rapidly switches the fogger on/off about twice a second as long as you hold it). Being able to give the promoter this wireless dongle and saying "this button for fog whenever you want at your party" makes me look very professional. MUST HAVE item right here.
Purchased the ape light maxi tour pack and love them. It came with a remote, but like anything else in this business, a back up is always necessary. The folks at Ape Labs even include another slot for a second remote in the charging case, thus, I think having a second remote is a no brainer. For 60 bucks, it's great peace of mind knowing if the other fails (it is technology which is never fail proof) or if you just forget it or lose it (darn kids), you are still able to control them no matter what. Pick up a second remote and sleep easy knowing you're completely covered. As usual, KPODJ rocked it with price and delivery. Had it quicker than I had anticipated, but at this point if the price and service weren't the best from these guys, I would be surprised.
this was a gift for my brother received it on time and was packaged well. Lights worked great used it with a power pack and used it for uplight for his new truss light was very bright and easy to control with the remote.
A must have for ape lights, very responsive and long range!
The ApeRemote is great and easy to use. It's the size of a credit card and the buttons have good feedback. Having RF over IR is invaluable for a medium venue. If you have a large venue, it's worth purchasing the WAPP. I'd love to get more groups, but that's a different issue. Much easier to use than programming DMX (and I enjoy DMX programming).
Must have for ape labs products. I have the connect/app and I still use this for ease sometimes.
Long Range, and you dont even have to point them at the lights
This remote is like having a dmx controller that's the size of a credit card. It has a very long range and being that it uses RF (Radio Frequncy) to communicate with the lights, there is no need to point at the fixtures to controller them and the remotes allows you to establish groups. In my case I have 8 sticks XL 2.0. I can make up to four groups, 2 lights in group 1, 2 in group 2, 2 in group 3 and so on. Control what you want each group to do or, activate all 4 groups and the lights do what ever setting you choose. Music Mode, control the speed, colors, brightness and all functions are in this small credit card size remote. I recommend that you read the enclosed starters guide that comes with the remote. There is a lot of detail that you should review. It's a lot of reading but once you go through each step, it will all make sense. I recommend you carry extra batteries. All in all this remote is very intuitive and it really allows you to have full control with the push of a few buttons. Once you have programmed your groups, the remote will save these groups when you shut down. At next start up, they will be assigned as you left them. But, in all likely hood you will probably need to re-assign groups as not all venues are the same and you'll have to set your lights as you see fit. Thanks to KPODJ for setting up with a great bundle package!
