The diagnostic and control floor of StageTools. Every utility you'd carry in a hard case: DMX testers, Network scanners, Timecode, calibration tools, collapsed into one tab and built to talk to the lighting protocols you already run.
Scan, save, and ping every node on the rig network. Load web UIs with a single tap. Live Device Map so you can see the status of every device.
Live sACN + ArtNet receive across up to 100 universes. Snapshot, flicker finder, priority conflict detection.
Patch GDTF fixtures and run them like a real console. Color, Position, and Beam panels per fixture. Groups, presets, macros. Save the whole rig as a .stshow bundle and AirDrop it to the next iPad.
Visual 8- and 10-switch DIP calculator in either direction. Prep a bag of new controllers in minutes.
Convert any Kelvin target to RGB, CIE xy, and Hue via the ASC White Point from MITC. Build per-fixture color profiles, solve CIE chromaticity, and dial hybrid LED mixes with adjustable cool and warm white.
Solve real fixture output at any distance in foot-candles or lux. Stack named modifiers for diffusion and loss, match a target level, and pull the camera f-stop from your ISO, frame rate, and shutter.
Passive listener for sACN, ArtNet, Pathport, MA-Net 2/3, HogNet, ETCNet, and OSC with automatic conflict detection.
SMPTE LTC generator + receiver across four frame rates with Off, Jam Once, and Continuous chase modes.
In-field dimmer and color calibration so you can create the perfect linear, exponential, logarithmic, or s-curves. Direct export to grandMA3 XML, ChamSys MagicQ CSV, and PDF reference sheets.
Discover and view NDI sources on your network. Transmit your iPhone camera, watch it on your iPad. Get monitor feeds, screenshot frames, and record clips.
Two workspaces in one drafting editor. Lighting + Power for the rig: symbols, cables, channel labels. Network for the topology: devices, hostnames, IP labels. Toggle each on per plot. Export as PDFs the gaffer can mark up on paper.
Sign in to GDTF Share once and the entire global fixture library lives in your pocket. Browse, favorite, download for offline use, and pull straight into Quick Plots or the Micro Console.
Save the PDFs you keep printing on paper. Bookmark the supplier sites you keep digging through history for. Organize them in folders that mirror how you actually work.
Photos, voice memos, written notes, and a GPS map preview pinned to every location scout. Walk the venue once, hand the LD a branded PDF when you're back at the truck.

Every feature was built to solve a specific problem encountered on a real set.
"At the lampdock. Need to test these fixtures before they ship out to set."
Micro Console patches them as GDTF fixtures and drives sACN or ArtNet to verify modes, addresses, and channels in minutes.
"Not getting universe 3 at the nodes. Is the console even outputting it?"
DMX Viewer confirms what's on the wire. Protocol Detector flags conflicting sources before they hit the rig.
"Rigging gaffer emailed a network drawing. Which IP is which node?"
Network Scanner with saved profiles and XLSX label import. Drop the result into Quick Plots, where labeled topology symbols hyperlink straight to each node's web UI.
"Photos, notes, PDF files. All in different apps. None tied to the scout."
Scout Notes pins photos, markup, voice memos, block notes, and a GPS map to each scout. Branded PDF when you're ready to share.
"RGB ribbon color shifts as we dim it."
Curve Builder generates a per-fixture correction curve from lux readings, with direct export to grandMA3 or MagicQ.
The hardest part of building a tool for working techs is saying no to features that look cool but don't actually help anyone.
All network reads are local and read-only. Your plots, scans, and notes stay on your device — sync to your own iCloud if you want, and a couple of optional AI features send only the content you choose to submit. No analytics. No crash reporting. No ads. No tracking. Ever.
StageTools is available now on the App Store for working lighting crews: film, theater, and touring.
