Fixture Personalities for Life Threatening Devices in Mosaic Designer
ETC policy is that we do not create/provide fixture definitions for our controls products (entertainment/architectural) for devices that would be classified as pyrotechnics or could be dangerous to show personnel/audience members (where best practices require life-safety overrides such as Emergency Stops, for example). This also includes Class 3B or Class 4 laser products, laser products without clear class markings, and rigging devices such as winches.
While the boundary of what might be considered dangerous may be fuzzy, ETC will always err on the side of safety in these cases.
There is nothing that stops a user from creating their own profile or using one of our external triggering methods to interface with pyrotechnics/special effects or similar devices. ETC will not provide pre-built profiles for items that could be considered as such.

- ETC Eos
