Frequently asked questions
Which is better for outdoor architectural lighting?
The Exterior 300 is purpose-built for grazing walls and highlighting structures with its narrow beam option and color mixing. The Sceptron 20 is designed for video display, not architectural wash, so the Exterior 300 is the better fit.
Which one can display video content or patterns across multiple fixtures?
Only the VDO Sceptron 20 has pixel-mapping and videoMapping capabilities via the P3 System Controller. The Exterior 300 offers DMX color control but no video or pixel-level mapping.
What is the key difference in control systems?
The Exterior 300 uses standard DMX with optional RDM for remote diagnostics. The Sceptron 20 uses the Martin P3 System Controller for mapping and effects, with backwards compatibility to DMX for simpler setups.
Which fixture requires a remote power supply?
The VDO Sceptron 20 can be powered from a P3 PowerPort up to 50 meters away, enabling clean cable management. The Exterior 300 has an integrated power supply built into each fixture.
