Designed to operate as a fully-fledged moving head profile or as a static but repositionable profile, the unique TX1 PosiProfile™ allows positioning and operation within extremely confined spaces where crew access is problematic or movement options are severely limited or not required.

Usually, fixtures require pre-use pan and tilt movement to calibrate to ensure accurate control when power cycling. Not so with the TX1!

Via our new MAPS™ (Motionless Absolute Positioning System) patented technology, the luminaire remains motionless while calibrating, unlike all other fixtures that must at least move to their home position.

Using our Robe patented BARS™ (Brake Attribute Retention System) operated directly from your console, TX1 remains static due to its ability to lock motorised attributes, such as pan and tilt, zoom and focus, in place. The fixture remains there until they are released.

Able to restrict movement before even installation via either the onboard QVGA display or from your console, you are protected against collision and accidental damage when TX1 is in extremely tight spaces.

Fully functional, the TX1 maintains the full movement capabilities of a standard moving head profile, allowing it to operate as such.

With a patented MSL-TE™ 500W Multi-Spectral LED engine generating over 13.500-lumen output, you have all the advantages of data harvesting, cost-effective engine change and longevity that TRANSFERABLE ENGINE technology delivers.

Light quality is assured. Belonging to the T Series, you have the same colour control platform as other fixtures in the range to produce identical colour mixing. Perfect colour rendition is assured with an adjustable CRI of 80 to 95+ and a variable CCT of 2.700K – 8.000K.

Our DataSwatch™ onboard colour library contains 237 of your favourite colours and tones, including factory-calibrated whites using the RCC™ (Robe Colour Calibration) system for accurate reproduction and on-call self-recalibration of the LED engine. No external tools are required.

The 9:1 ratio 5.5°-50° zoom range with superb optics and industry-leading beam quality and homogenisation guarantees perfect projection and flat beams. The patented Plano4™ four individual plane shutter module, with 120° module rotation, produces precise shutter cuts without any distorting pillowing effect, with iris included as standard.

Two MagFrost™ quick change frosts are included. A 1° for softening and a 5° for washes. Others are available on request.

TX1‘s modular approach ensures cost-effectiveness when used as a repositionable profile. If effects are required, an optional module is available with a fully indexable rotating gobo wheel with 7 gobos, a static wheel with 9 gobos, and an animation wheel.

This luminaire, as you would expect, comes packed with additional Robe innovations. Cpulse™ flicker-free management system for HD and UHD cameras; L3™ Low Light Linearity dimming software for imperceptible fades to black; AirLOC™ (Less Optical Cleaning) technology keeping the optical elements in pristine condition for far longer.

Innovations

MSL™ – Multi Spectral Light Source

Robe's MSL™ (Multi-Spectral Light) LED light engines are, specifically, designed to consistently deliver the highest quality light through the additive colour mixing method. The MSL spreads the emitted light equally throughout the Planck curve, thereby providing the widest possible colour gamut, while simultaneously delivering seamless full range CCT control.

TE™ – Robe’s Transferable LED Engines

The TE™ technology addresses the problem of performance longevity of ageing LEDs by making the exchange of the engine a simple procedure that can be carried out in just a few minutes. But transferable means so much more than replaceable!

BARS™ – Brake Attribute Retention System

To lock motorised features such as pan, tilt, focus and zoom in position, we have BARS™ – Robes revolutionary patented Brake Attribute Retention System.

MAPS™ – Motionless Absolute Positioning System

Pre-use pan and tilt calibration movement of a fixture can be distracting and sometimes difficult to achieve.

Epass™

Robe lighting’s Epass™ provides Ethernet in/out connections with a pass-through switch that sustains Ethernet integrity when the fixture has no power to automatically maintain network connectivity.

REAP™ – Robe Ethernet Access Portal

The Robe Ethernet Access Portal allows to access internal data from a networked fixture, viewed as a web page, addressable via the fixtures network IP.

airLOC™

Our AirLOC™ (Less Optical Cleaning) technology greatly reduces the level of airborne particles drawn over the optical elements.

Plano4™ Framing shutters

Robe's patented Plano4™ 4-blade framing shutter module offers unparalleled beam control with individual movement and rotation control for each blade. The Plano4™ FC module features full curtain movement, allowing each blade to move entirely across the light path for full-wipe capability.

Cpulse™ – Pulse Width Modulation Control

Cpulse™ is a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) control system for luminaires that allows you to select and fine-tune the LED driving frequency to ensure no flicker will be visible on any camera system.

EMS™ – Electronic Motion Stabiliser

The Robe Electronic Motion Stabiliser is a technology for exact Pan and Tilt movements and reduces vibrations from audio outputs, truss movement and sprung or suspended floors.

L3™ – Low Light Linearity System

The L3™ Low Light Linearity System produces imperceptible, ultra-smooth fades to black.

+ - Green Correction

Robe has included a dedicated +/- green control channel in fixtures that feature our MSL™ specific white TE™ source fixtures. This allows you to make the smallest changes of green content compared to the fixed levels produced by the specific filters on white source fixtures.

MagFrost™

There is no need to be stuck with frosts supplied with the fixture! Robe’s MagFrost™ magnetic paddle system provides you with quickly exchangeable frosts, enabling you to select those most suitable for your production.

Slot & Lock Gobos

Robe's patented "slot & lock" system allows for easy and fast replacement of both rotatable and indexable gobos.

Tungsten Emulation

When selected, the luminaire will mimic the colour temperature of a tungsten lamp as you lower the output to produce that classic warm glow.

DataSwatch™ – inbuilt virtual colour library

The DataSwatch™ inbuilt virtual colour library for Robe LED fixtures consists of up to 237 pre-programmed and calibrated colours and tones, allowing for rapid and accurate programming.

QVGA Robe Touch Screen Display System

The QVGA Robe touch screen display gives full access to all fixture setup and diagnostic functions and is very intuitive to navigate.

GDTF – General Device Type Format

The General Device Type Format creates a unified definition for exchange of data for the operation of intelligent luminaries, such as moving lights. The file format is human readable and developed using open source formats.
