Epix Drive 900 hosts the processing and power supply for the Epix Tour system. It supports either 18 Epix Strip Tours or 6 Epix Bar Tours, or any combination of the two, with a total capacity of 900 LEDs. Epix Drive 900 supports Art-Net, Kling-Net, and sACN, giving you a variety of control options. Thanks to an integrated web server, you can remotely diagnose, troubleshoot, and change settings as needed without having to directly access the Epix lights.
Chauvet Professional EPIX Drive 900 Power Supply Features:
- The processing and power center of the Epix Tour system will drive any combination of Epix Tour products, up to 900 LEDs.
- Versatile control options include Art-Net, Kling-Net, and sACN (streaming ACN) to support the touring/rental/installation markets.
- Quickly and easily configure the Epix Drive 900 using the built-in OLED display.
- Easily detect and automatically configure your devices using the auto-address function, regardless of fixture order or type (bar/strip.)
- Supports up to 18 Epix Strip Tours or 6 Epix Bar Tours.
- Easily daisy chain fixtures directly from the single output of the Drive 900 on a single cable.
- Advanced power management design allows you to position the Drive 900 up to 65 ft away from your last fixture (using shielded cable.)
- Works with Arkaos Media Master Express for a plug-n-play system that requires almost no training to operate.
A significant change in the Tour series is that the Drive 900 now uses a 4-pin XLR for power and data. This allows production rental houses who previously invested in scrollers to have a use for their previously obsolete cables. Also, since both the electrical contacts and cable sizes are larger, more power can be run down the line. This means that the fixtures can be placed at a much greater distance from the power supply. Now, you can place your first fixture 65' from the PSU, and the total distance between your Epix Drive 900 and the last unit in-line is now over 200' (up to 300', if you're using unshielded cable). This means that in a touring rig, you can simplify setup by having your Epix Drives at Dimmer Beach, and your fixtures up in the rig. In an installation, this makes it easier to locate all of your drivers in one location, so that service and maintenance are much easier.
