The Newton 1200 intelligent follow spot is based on the sophisticated, reliable and well-proven technology of SGM Galileo fixtures. It is designed for professional medium-to-long throw use in theater, television studios and concerts applications, although its user friendliness makes it suitable for any use. This follow spot can be used where automatic or multiple synchronized follow spots need to be on set cues. Using DMX, a lighting designer can produce a controlled cue list and have multiple follow spots responding to a centralized console. Manual control is offered using a separate Newton controller. It mounts next to the follow spot where adjustment vibrations do not affect the light beam while in operation. It is constructed of rugged die-cast and extruded aluminum, however it remains as manageable as possible, with two handles on the sides and a grip on the rear panel. On the rear panel there is also a built-in settings panel with a display. Operators can get information on the follow spot’s status, DMX addressing, and fixture and lamp operating times.
