Accessories - Fader Wings

A Congo system supports up to 80 Master Playbacks. These can be
accessed physically by connecting fader wings . In Congo Kid you
can access all 80 numerically but you cannot connect a wing for
physical control of the last 40.

There are two kinds of fader wings.

• Congo Master Wing

• Universal fader wings (additional faders for any Congo system)

Any combination wings may be attached to a system, for a total of up to 80 master playback
faders. An external power supply, provided, is required when used stand-alone.

Master Playback Wing

The Congo Master Playback Wing provides physical access to 40 Congo Master Playbacks,
including the LCD displays for labelling and all master, flash and paging keys. Additionally,
the Wing can be switched into Direct Select Mode, providing access to the 40 direct selects.
It also features the Channels-Only/Masters/Jam switch, giving the Congo Jr all the flexibility
of the Congo console in a significantly smaller footprint.

The Master Playback Wing is a modular accessory for the Congo jr lighting control console.
It may be connected physically to either side of the Congo jr, or it may be used as a stand-
alone wing connected to the console with a provided USB cable. An external power supply,
provided, is required when used stand-alone.
