Guy Holt Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 I’m a total Newbie when it comers to wireless DMX and want to put together a portable dimming system in a pelican case. I was thinking of getting Nomad for my 2013 Macbook Pro with Retina display. So that I can easily jump from there to a desk size EOS console I was thinking of also getting a Dell 16x9 Touchscreen to mount under the lid of the case and the cmd keyboard for ETC Eos. To output dmx to fixtures I was also planning on getting the ETC Gadget that provides two universes. What would be a good transmitter? Is there anything else I am missing? What more do I need in my Pelican case for a complete mobile package. Attached are some pictures I found online of such a system and I am trying to figure out what all the ports on the side of the pelican case are for?

Gabriel Elder Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 (edited) I don't have extensive experience with DMX, but I have created a couple pelican-case build outs, and it seems like the majority of those exterior ports are pass-throughs for computer and peripheral I/O. Power obviously, and looks like two XLR ports for DMX, USB ports for the wireless TX. The threaded cap in the first photo is a mystery to me, maybe an open hole for the unexpected cable? Good luck with the project! Edited December 4, 2019 by Gabriel Elder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
