Antares FX Engine

ELVARNIXO Continuous — what you see is what you shoot
The Antares makes weather on demand: lightning that reads as lightning, firelight with physics in it, TV flicker, chases — tap-tempo on set, DMX from the board, and colour discipline even mid-storm.
Colour science is a promise you keep in hardware: emitter arrays mixed for full-spectrum output, firmware that corrects drift as diodes age, and calibration data stored per fixture. Housings are aluminium with fanless or hush-governed cooling, mounts are steel where torque lives, and every control — knob, app, DMX — reads the same numbers, because your gaffer's console should never argue with your app.

Care
Wipe housings dry after location work, cap connectors on the truck, and store below 40 °C. Run the built-in calibration check quarterly — two minutes — and book the annual photometric re-certification so your fleet keeps matching itself.
Questions, Answered
Can I control it from a board and an app at once?
Yes — DMX/RDM, wireless and app control coexist with clear priority rules, and every channel map is printed and downloadable.
How loud is the fan?
Noise figures at each fan mode are in the specification — measured at one metre. Hush modes hold output within the stated derating.
