Need something exceptional to stand out from the crowd? Something very different to create a powerful signature effect. Lack that missing X factor? Then go to the extreme with the visually sensational TetraX™!

Developed from the immensely successful Tetra1™, the TetraX™ adds dynamic pan movement with extremely high-speed continuous rotation, dramatically increasing sweeping effect possibilities of the fixture.

Generating an ultra-tight 4° beam from each of the 9 evenly spaced pixels, they combine to produce a bright, defined “sheet” of light, as desired by Lighting Designers. The homogenised beams and smooth 11:1 motorised zoom provide ultra-smooth washes out to 45°.

TetraX™ sets itself apart by including three exclusive eye-catching Robe patented MCFE™ – Multi-Coloured Flower Effect – emitting sharp, multi-coloured spikes of light, with variable speed and rotation direction control, to further increase the projection of charismatic in-air animations.

All-inclusive colour and dimming control are available via RGBW and CMY colour mixing modes; variable CCT of 2.700K – 8.000K; tungsten emulation simulating the red shift and thermal delay of tungsten lamps for whites from 2.700K – 4.200K; DataSwatch™ 237 pre-programmed colour library; L3™ Low Light Linearity dimming software for imperceptible fades to black.

An Epass™ Ethernet switch ensures sustained network connectivity. A wide range of protocols (sACN, Art-Net or Kling-Net) allows quick network installation and control from media servers, DMX, or the internal effects engine.

Innovations

DataSwatch™ – inbuilt virtual colour library

The DataSwatch™ inbuilt virtual colour library for Robe LED fixtures provides consistent colour rendering with commonly matched filter ranges, allowing for rapid and accurate programming.

MCFE™ – Multi Coloured Flower Effect

The Robe patented MCFE™ – Multi-Coloured Flower Effect – creates sharp, multi-coloured spikes of light, that are fully rotatable in both directions, at variable speeds.

L3™ – Low Light Linearity System

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

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.

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.

RLCT™ – Robe lens coating technology

Just like with spectacles, our lens coating technology protects soft plastic lenses against surface scratches, that can even occur during cleaning when scrubbed repeatedly. Anti-static properties prevent dust build-up on the lenses, thus extending the period between maintenance cleaning.

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.

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.
