House Lighting

Lutron Light Panel

• • The primary house lighting is controlled by a Lutron panel on the back wall of the chapel

  • Each set of lights has a number corresponding to its location

    • • The lights at the front of the House begin at 1 and move to 11 at the back

      • There is also a set of side lights

  • Each set of lights has a number corresponding to its type

    • • S indicates spotlights

      • F indicates floodlights

  • The control for each light include an On button (1), an Off button (2), and Dimmer buttons (3) for adjusting overall lighting

  • For events that primarily focus on the stage, please see the following notes on house lighting

    • • Pre Event: Lights 1-4 OFF, Lights 5-10 ON, Lights 11 and Sides ON

      • At Start of Event: Lights 1-4 ON, Lights 5-10 OFF, Lights 11 and Sides AS NEEDED

Chauvet DJ Spotlights

• • For formal events, such as Evening Public Lectures, the chapel is equipped with a pair of Chauvet DJ Spotlights

  • The Spotlights emit a high pitched ringing noise which can cause some audio distress for some people, but in the author's 2 years of operating the spotlights, this noise has only elicited 5 or so comments from audience participants

    • • Regent IT has contacted the manufacturers of these Spotlights for support with no avail

  • The Spotlights can be manually adjusted to change their focus

    • • Please contact Regent IT about making any changes to the physical orientation of the Spotlight ([email protected])

  • Spotlights utilize translucent slides called Gels to control the primary color of the Spotlight. These Gels degrade with time and need to be replaced at least once a year.

• • The Spotlights are controlled at two separate levels

    • • Chauvet DJ Control Panels

        • • In the back closet of the chapel there is a control panel for each spotlight in the bottom of the large AV Control Box where the network Switch is location

            • • Please note that printed labels on the panels do not correspond to the chapel settings for these control panels; rather, the taped labels indicate the controls for the spotlights

          • The panel has an On/Off button (Manual RGB) indicated by the On tape label

          • Please only adjust the Dim ("Red" slider) setting on these panels to control the brightness of the spotlight

            • • The Color ("Green" slider) and Strobe ("Blue" slider) settings should not be touched and should be returned to the settings in the attached photo if they have been adjusted

              • The picture displayed here shows the proper settings for the spotlights

      • Bestten Remote Control

        • • The spotlights themselves are plugged into IR controlled Bestten power outlets so that they can be turned on and off from the sound desk and their settings need not be changed on the panels for most events

          • This remote is kept in the back closet of the chapel when not in use

          • Rather than having an On/Off button for each outlet, each outlet has an On button on the left of the remote and an Off button on the right side

          • The right spotlight (as seen from the back of the house) corresponds to #1 on the Remote

          • The left spotlight (as seen from the back of the house) corresponds to #2 on the Remote

          • Sometimes it is necessary to take a step or two from the audio desk toward the spotlight in order for the remote control to reach the outlets
