Description
The Martin P3‑175 System Controller is part of the P3 family of system controllers from Martin, designed to enable lighting and video-based control of fixtures in professional entertainment and architectural installations. It allows fixtures to be mapped, patched, addressed and configured through a visual canvas instead of manually addressing each fixture on‑site. It supports mixing DMX/Art‑Net/sACN control with video input, enabling both “pixel‑mapped” video looks and traditional lighting control workflows. It integrates with the P3 ecosystem for real‑time visualization, monitoring and system‑wide synchronization.
