Wireless Control with DMX Products

When using the FlareCON Air 2 to wirelessly send D-Fi signals while using DMX lights that have no D-Fi capability,
FlareCON Air 2 must be used with a D-Fi Hub. The FlareCON Air 2 creates a wireless network (Wi-Fi™) for receiving the
signals from the mobile device, and sends D-Fi signals wirelessly to the D-Fi Hub. D-Fi Hub then converts those signals to
DMX and sends those signals through a DMX cable to the DMX lights.
• Be sure to connect only one smartphone or tablet at a time.
• The tablet or smartphone running FlareCON app should be within 200 ft (60 m) of FlareCON Air 2.
• Always install FlareCON Air 2 within 400 ft (120 m) of the products receiving D-Fi. FlareCON Air 2
works best within the line of sight of the D-Fi products.
