The lighting rig was declared unsafe in December 2013 and has been condemned (see [[File:YSTV Rig inspection report.pdf]]). It was removed in July 2014. The power sockets on the ceiling are still safe to use, but all lights must either be on the floor or on one of the lighting stands.

Pulsar status dimmers: (2 of)
See [[Dimmers|Dimmers]]
* 8-pin Din analogue signal in, 0-10v
* With pre-heat (good for not shocking cold bulbs if they suddenly get turned on, this increases lamp life.
* 6 5amp channels each.
* IEC plugs on flying leads out.
* If they're buzzing, they're happy!
**'''faults'''
***Top dimmer channel 3, Likes to turn itself on to around 30% after a while. i.e. It's level can be raised, but not lowered beyond 30%. The time taken for this fault to appear can be minutes, or hours. It does not seem to be linked to heat - on 18/02/2010 the behaviour was observed when warm, and cold (given a break for 1/2 hour before retrying). This dimmer channel corresponds on the desk to what was "old channel I" - i.e. pre 18/02/2010 it would have been bottom dimmer channel 3..
***Bottom dimmer channel 3, The transistor/triac looks fried and has continuity between the emitter and collector, also two medium-power 270 Ohm resistors have physically split. This dimmer channel corresponds on the desk to what was "old channel C" - i.e. pre 18/02/2010 it would have been top dimmer channel 3..
 
 
Eurolite DPX-405: (1 of)
* DMX512 control Via 3pin XLR. Pass Through.
* 4 5amp channels each.
* IEC sockets out.
* No Preheat.
* 13a Plug currently.
 
 
Double clunky 13a: (1 of)
* 2 13a channels each (MAX 2.5Kw each)
* 13a in and out for each channel
* Sliders / pots for control
* Max & min adjust (you'll need a flat screwdriver)
* Very useful on OB's. Don't hesitate to bring it!

* Old fresnels.
* No barndoors
* TUNGSTEN
 
 
Selecon Asymetric floods: (2 of)
* Not old! - still incredibly popular as of 01/10
* Asymetric! not even spread of light. spread gets better, the further they are from the wall. Remember, big side at bottom.
* Use to light back walls evenly, rather than a large "splodge" of light at the top, and not much at the bottom.
* The above makes them very useful when doing [[Chroma_key]] work.
* Lamp access by flipping the catch on top - whole fornt of fixture is hinged to allow lamp change without re-focusing.
* Colourframe located by flipping open the ''cover'' at the top. Not the catch! Slide out colourframe from top.
* No Barndoors (selecon do still sell them though)
* TUNGSTEN 500w
 
 
Selecon Symetric Floods: (1 of)
* As Asymetric, but even.
* No colourframes.
* No Barndoors (selecon do still sell them though)
* TUNGSTEN 500w
 
 
Berkley Colortran Floods: (1 of)
* Compact, yet bright.
* With bardoors.
* TUNGSTEN 500w
 
 
Generic bar of 4 floods: (2 of)
* normal floodlights
* 3 functioning bulbs per bar.
* DIY colourframes from gridding - bend to suit...
* 300w / compartment
* IEC in
* very god for OB's

* With rotating barndoors
* adjust Pan, Tilt & Beam Via knobs.

* Rotating barndoors.
* HALOGEN 1000w
* These are more "orange" than tungsten, so bear that in mind when colour balancing...
