A "tessera" is a tile in a greater mosaic but also an object of beauty itself. The Unison® Mosaic Tessera Controller (MTPC) is both a part of a greater sophisticated networked system and a standalone full controller in itself, in an elegantly compact local touchscreen. The Tessera is unique in handling not only complex lighting and lighting devices of all sorts (LEDs, conventionals, etc.) but impromptu show-control, other accessories and non-lighting effects -- for complete control -- in an economical package. No other controller can integrate within a larger network or contain all the software and functionality within itself to master an entire installation.

Total control at your fingertips: Tessera's sleek touchscreen user-interface features up to 512 channels of DMX-Over-Ethernet (and other Ethernet-based protocols) to control color-mixing fixtures, conventional dimmable fixtures, and automated lights. The built-in timeclock triggers precise timed events, including 'sunrise' and 'sunset' astronomical cues. Each MTPC supports onboard triggering over Ethernet. Additional channels and triggering interfaces are supported by optional MSC controllers and remote devices attached over an Ethernet network.
