Pharos Architectural Controls Ltd

A huge congratulations to John Gilroy, our Technical Support Specialist, who tied the knot last weekend. The Pharos Support Team was there in full force to celebrate with him—proof that our team is always ready to provide support, no matter the occasion. Wishing John and his new spouse a lifetime of love and happiness. #PharosControls #PharosPeople

Alba Aréna in Hungary is a multifunctional venue built to become the home of the Hydro Fehérvár AV19 professional ice hockey team. A two-universe LPC, a TPC and a BPS, all from our Designer range, were specified by BE LIGHT! to control the façade of the stadium, as well as being able to programme the indoor lighting to meet the differing requirements of sports matches, shows and other events. https://buff.ly/4i92ZTe Project Credits: Architects: Mihály Balázs and Attila Tamás Tarnóczky General contractor: Market Építő Zrt.

We had a fantastic time at LiGHT 24 last week! A big thank you to all our customers and partners who visited us at our stand and helped us to celebrate our 20th anniversary year – it was a pleasure to connect and share insights with you. We'd also like to extend our thanks to the organisers for putting on such a brilliant show. We're already looking forward to next year! #LiGHT24 #LightingControl #20YearsInControl #20YearsOfPharos #DynamicLighting #ArchitecturalLighting

Pharos is celebrating 20 years in control in 2024... We are proud of being an independent lighting manufacturer. Our hardware and software is designed, built and created in-house so we have complete quality control. Since the beginning, our programming software has been completely free. No cut-down version, no subscription, no dongle. All software updates are free, and every version includes free and easy firmware upgrades too. We are passionate about forward and backward compatibility for hardware and project files, and only when technology or component availability ties our hands completely, do we ever drawn a line in supporting our much older products in newer software. In 2019 we launched Pharos Cloud – the cutting edge, totally secure solution for managing a site remotely, from anywhere in the world over the Internet, without connecting additional hardware. Busy installers and system integrators can offer outstanding, invaluable and instant support to their customers any time, from anywhere. And did you know Designer runs on both Windows and macOS, with project files freely movable between those operating systems? #PharosControls #DynamicLighting #20YearsOfPharosFeatures #20YearsOfPharos #20YearsInControl #ArchiteturalLighting

Pharos is celebrating 20 years in control in 2024... and not just lighting control - thanks to many Designer integration features we are unsurpassed for show control implementation. Since the beginning, and instrumental to becoming the go-to controller for the architainment and themed lighting sectors, the LPC supported full integration with other systems and devices via UDP, TCP, MIDI, RS232, and of course, DMX. In 2018 we introduced IO Modules – a library of plug-ins that can be added to the standard triggers to give you application specific triggers, conditions and actions to integrate with third-party systems, web services, other industry protocols or just to help with programming productivity. And did you know we offer installation replications? This is a boon for larger theme park environments and retail chains that have identical rides or stores and need to commission once, or make a change once, then push it to multiple cookie-cutter, independent control systems from the same Designer project file. #PharosControls #PharosDesigner #DynamicLighting #ArchitecturalLighting #20YearsOfPharos #20YearsInControl #20YearsOfPharosFeatures

Pharos is celebrating 20 years in control in 2024... Designer has the features and tools to bring light and sound to your projects. Since the beginning, our realtime clock allowed for scheduling of advanced astronomical triggering based on local time for twilight: civil and nautical dusk and dawn, as well as local sunrise and sunset. In 2017 we added audio output to the LPC X giving you even more synchronised show control for son et lumiere and themed environments with the controller running background and high-priority sound files on trigger. And did you know Designer also supports lunar triggering? The controllers calculate the phases of the moon, and triggers can be scheduled around New, Full and Quarter moons. #PharosControls #PharosDesigner #20YearsOfPharosFeatures #ArchitecturalLighting #DynamicLighting #20YearsInControl #20YearsOfPharos

This Friday, the Cloud project at Heathrow Terminal 5 takes the spotlight with the release of the next episode in our special video podcast series, part of our 10 People | 10 Projects | 20 Years campaign. Cloud, designed by the multidisciplinary art group Troika, was originally commissioned by Artwise on behalf of British Airways for the opening of Terminal 5 at Heathrow. Positioned over the escalators, it greets passengers as they arrive at the British Airways Galleries Lounges. Tune in tomorrow for insights on the project from Sebastien Noel of Troika... https://buff.ly/3NvChWO #20YearsOfPharos #20YearsInControl #PharosControls #DynamicLighting #ArchitecturalLighting
