EOS RPU3

ETC's Eos RPU3 can provide primary and backup control in Ti, Eos, Gio and Gio @5 control systems, or it can be used as a stand-alone lighting playback unit.  A 2U device, it can be mounted into 19" equipment racks or road cases.

The front of the RPU3 includes a power switch, USB port and 20 user-programmable buttons with backlit labels for frequently used functions.  The buttons have default mapping, including Live, Blind, Go, Stop/Back and paging controls, and can be reprogrammed for your system's individual requirements.  There are 3 Display port connectors on the RPU3, which works with single- or multi-touch displays.  The RPU3 comes with two individually-configured, power-sourcing network ports, and there are four USB ports on the back panel.  It has local I/O, including two DMX ports, MIDI In/Out, and a remote trigger.

  • ³ PC requires Windows 7 or higher. Mac requires macOS Mojave or later.  The ETCnomad software is free for offline programming or "mirror mode", but requires a dongle to act as a client.
  • ⁴ The console is still limited by the number of DMX universes/outputs, thus you may not be able to use all these channels.
