Abstract
Certain problems must be overcome to use successfully dimmers of the silicon-controlled rectifier type in TV studios. A specially designed dimmer has been developed and made available economically to allow a greater number of dimmers in a studio installation. This increases the need for more flexible preset systems. A new punch-card type of “automatic infinite preset” system is described. It can be arranged to control position, angle, focus and spectral quality of studio lights in addition to circuit selection and control of lighting intensity. Lighting layouts can use fewer units; and dimmers can be located on, or adjacent to, the lighting fixtures. Backgrounds of luminous color can be accurately controlled for frequent changes of color and brightness.
