Frequently asked questions
Can these products work together?
Yes, they serve complementary roles. The VDO Fatron 20 provides visual content via LED projection while the JEM ZR25 generates atmospheric fog. Both integrate with DMX control, making them easy to coordinate in a unified lighting design.
Which is better for small venues?
Both are suited to smaller installations. The VDO Fatron 20's 1000 mm length and 20 mm pixel pitch work well for close-range video mapping in compact stages. The JEM ZR25's compact footprint and 600 m³/min output handle fog for small to medium venues without dominating floor or rig space.
What control options do each offer?
The VDO Fatron 20 supports DMX and P3 VideoMapping control with 16-bit color processing for pixel precision. The JEM ZR25 offers remote control, onboard panel control, and full DMX/RDM integration on a single channel for networked fog machine management.
Do they require special installation or fluids?
The VDO Fatron 20 uses standard power and data cabling compatible with Martin's VDO ecosystem and requires no consumables. The JEM ZR25 needs fog fluid (not included) and a standard Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 power inlet, with a 2.5-liter tank capacity supporting 70 minutes of operation.
