Take full control of your lighting shows with the Xpress-Rack 1024, a professional-grade rack-mounted DMX interface built specifically for seamless integration with ShowXpress™ software. Designed for reliability and versatility, this powerful unit manages two DMX universes right out of the box and unlocks an additional ArtNet universe, giving you control over three universes in total. Perfect for installations and productions that demand flexibility, the Xpress-Rack 1024 empowers you to store and playback up to 16 shows directly from the unit — no computer needed — using the onboard buttons or the included remote control. For even greater control, you can trigger up to 8 scenes remotely via Phoenix contacts, making it easy to incorporate the Xpress-Rack 1024 into automated setups. The device also features a built-in clock and calendar, allowing you to schedule scenes to trigger automatically based on specific dates and times — ideal for timed shows, recurring events, and venue installations. Engineered for convenience and efficiency, the Xpress-Rack 1024 is hot-swappable and auto-reconnects within seconds if disconnected, ensuring uninterrupted performances. It’s fully compatible with both Windows® and Mac OS X systems, and if you need even more control, you can easily link multiple interfaces together to expand your DMX universe count. Plus, for added security and performance, both DMX outputs are electrically and optically isolated, providing robust protection for your lighting network.
