RIO A

Remote Audio Device

Expand your reach

The Remote Audio/Timecode Module (RIO A) expands the advanced show-control capabilities of the system in interactive installations, allowing lighting and AV to respond instantly to audio, MIDI, and timecode triggers. As an accessory to any Pharos Designer controller, the RIO A device features inputs for stereo audio or linear timecode, plus MIDI timecode input and output. This makes the Remote Audio/Timecode Module perfect for running 4D environmental effects, syncing your video, audio, and effects with lighting.

The RIO A employs familiar, simple and reliable Ethernet-wiring topology with IEEE 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE). Up to four RIO A modules can co-exist on a network as part of a distributed system.
