RSC Lightlock

RSC Lightlock

The RSC Lightlock is a specialised motion-dampening system for moving lights which allows moving lights to be rigged on very lightweight hanging or flown structures. Traditionally, rigging moving lights on trapezes, lightweight automated bars or pantographs would not be practical due to unwanted oscillation in the structure. The RSC Lightlock counteracts unwanted movement of automated lights opening up a plethora of new opportunities to creatively rig moving lights in without the need for heavy-duty mounting infrastructure. The RSC Lightlock emits low noise levels, allowing it to be used during live performances.

// FAQ //
Direct from the manufacturer

How does it work?
The RSC Lightlock works by accelerating and decelerating a balanced mass or weight at the appropriate moment of the swing cycle of a moving structure.

Will the RSC Lightlock stabilise a truss or pipe when one or more automated fixtures are moving?
Yes.

How many moving fixtures can be moving in unison before one RSC Lightlock becomes ineffective?
The RSC Lightlock will remain effective for as many moving fixtures as you require, however it will take slightly longer for the structure to come to rest, so instead of stopping the swing instantly it may take a second or two.

Will RSC Lightlock correct oscillations produced by wind?
No, not at the moment – in its current design the RSC Lightlock will only correct oscillations produced by something that is attached to the structure. That is to say, the RSC Lightlock cannot dampen movement caused by an external force pushing the structure. However watch this space as developments are on going….

Is RSC Lightlock affected by heat emitting from moving fixtures?
No.

Does it need data?
No.

Does it need a secondary safety device?
As with all devices rigged at height, the RSC Lightlock requires a safety bond. The RSC Lightlock also has an added internal electronic safety device that prevents it from being rigged the wrong way up.

Does it require any specialist rigging?
No, but a series of purpose built accessories are available.
Can I tour RSC Lightlock’s into different countries with different voltages?
Yes the RSC LightLock is fitted with an autosensing power supply.

Does it require calibration?
The RSC Lightlock self-calibrates every time you power-up; this usually takes about 1.5 seconds.

Do you need a different size RSC Lightlock for larger or smaller items?
No, the standard RSC Lightlock will serve most applications, but for larger items RSC Lightlocks can be added together to work in unison with each other.

How do I rig the RSC Lightlock?
The RSC Lightlock has an integrated track for 1⁄2″ or M12 fixings that can be rigged with standard clamps and couplers or direct mount plates.
