Product Details

Our amazing new SL-8000 controller allows you to run a complete light show with music without needing a computer to run the display. The built in Show Player will connect and control all Syncrolight Ethernet and RS485 controllers. The SL-8000 has several operating modes that allow light shows to be played either continuously, at a given interval, on a button press, or via our Show Selector. It also has a battery backed clock and full scheduler allowing you to schedule shows for specific times. Light shows and audio are played directly from the MicroSD card of the unit. The controller also has a Slave mode to allow the unit to be used as a Pixel Controller from a computer or another Show Player. This controller has 8 Pixel output ports. For 3 wire pixels (like 2811/2812 that have a single data cable) 4 of clock outputs can be used as additional outputs, giving you 12 individually controllable outputs. The SL-8000 is capable of controlling 8000 pixels for continuous control of at least 24Hz (Using 8 Outputs of 1,000 pixels). For 3 Wire Pixels like 2811 / 2812 it can control 12,000 of at least 24Hz (using 12 outputs of 1,000 pixels). The controller can support up to a maximum of 24,000 Pixels but the refresh rate will be lower, depending upon pixel type used. Unconfigured outputs also function as a signal splitter, mirroring another output. This allow you to connect up to 16 outputs and have all pixels strings function the same. For example, configure 1 output of 1,000 pixels with a 1,000 pixels licence, and all outputs will mirror output 1. (8 Outputs for 4 wire Pixels, 16 Outputs for 3 wire Pixels). This controller also supports 'Idle' sequences when in push button or scheduled modes. These 'Idle' sequences are typically non-musical shows that play in-between timed shows or whilst waiting for a button press. The number of pixels supported on the supplied controller is limited by a pixel license. The controller is supplied with the licence installed, additional licences can be purchased at a later date should you wish to use more pixels. Pixel licences can be transferred and shared across any of our Pixel controllers. Pixel licences are issued FREE if pixels are purchased from us. The Sycrolight Software Package is required to configure this controller and prepare shows for the Micro SD Card. Optional Essentials Pack includes :
