Daisy Chaining
Users can combine and daisy-chain multiple units with minimal visible gaps, so up to twelve 2' Omnibars can share a single power and data source, reducing setup times and minimizing the need for long cables.
Fast, Easy Optics Installation
Designed for quick setups, the Omnibar features flexible rigging options that save valuable time and reduce complexity. Its front-loaded, magnetically fixed, and easily interchangeable optics make it easy to customize your light setup.
The included flat diffuser can be used for controlled softening without significantly altering the beam angle, and the included intensifier provides a maximum punch with a tight 60° beam. A separately available round diffuser can be used for maximum softness and a wide beam spread.
Onboard Menu and Built-In Battery
The onboard LCD features an intuitive user-friendly menu to toggle between CCT, RGB, and Effects modes, as well as runtime and DMX configuration.
The Omnibar also features a powerful integrated battery and a control panel recessed into the rail system, providing access to core functions such as color modes and lighting/pixel effects. The battery is designed to be fully service-replaceable by ARRI Service, authorized service partners, or rental houses with suitable facilities.
IP65 Rating
The Omnibar's rugged design and IP65 weatherproof rating perform well in harsh conditions, including resistance to water and dust. It provides a minimum runtime of two hours at full brightness or up to 24 hours at lower outputs. Its ruggedness and durable build make it suitable for semi-permanent exterior and interior installations.
Omniclip
The included Omniclips install around the light and feature multiple screw threads and three angle options, ensuring stable support when the fixture is used horizontally for uplighting or low-angle applications. It's an effective mounting solution for securing bars to set pieces, walls, or other screw-compatible surfaces with multiple fixing points.
Omnigrip
The included Omnigrip and Omnipins are a key mounting combination for quick and efficient 16mm
attachment onto grip heads, clamps, and compatible stands, with additional fitting points for the included eyebolts to secure safety chains.
They allow you to create a seamless connection of multiple fixtures in horizontal or vertical orientation. For example, you can connect two 2' bars to create a 4' for standard floor use, or connect a 4' and 2' to make a 6' fixture.
Eyebolt
Made of high-quality steel, the eyebolt is an essential safety component for securing lighting fixtures. Each eyebolt adapter features a customized 3/8" screw design, allowing it to be securely mounted on both sides of the Omnibar for optimal stability. Two eyebolts are provided per fixture, per set.
Mini Tripod
The mini tripod can be used in various vertical applications and features four adjustable height settings. It's easy to set up, and it adds efficient placement when running on the built-in battery.
Wireless Control
In addition to its onboard controls and wired DMX options, Omnibar can be controlled wirelessly via its integrated LumenRadio TimoTwo CRMX chip or Bluetooth Omnibar app. The new ARRI Bluetooth Mesh Protocol allows fixtures to relay control signals between each other to extend range and improve connection stability without additional hardware. Even Bluetooth effects can be controlled and kept in sync via the app.
Omnibar iPhone Control App
Each Omnibar can be controlled wirelessly via its integrated LumenRadio TimoTwo CRMX chip or the intuitive ARRI Omnibar Control App, which features a clear lighting control layout,
detailed status displays, and straightforward configuration screens. It provides speed and simplicity when configuring DMX and control settings for a whole case of Omnibars directly from an iPhone.
You can also utilize the Blackout app for seamless integration with CRMX wireless systems (e.g., LumenRadio), which provides stable connectivity, efficient fixture patching, precise color-control interfaces, and demonstrations of multiple user interactions throughout the control workflow.
Omnibase (Optional)
The separately available Omnibase allows you to utilize wired DMX control of your wireless Omnibars, providing IP-rated durability and all-weather performance.
It combines a responsive touchscreen interface with comprehensive networking options, such as Art-Net, sACN, and up to six universes routed directly through the power/data cabling.
