Carefully packaged into the minimum amount of space, the ‘Base Unit’ contains all the necessary mechanics and electronic motion control for a single axis; all the base unit needs is to be provided with PELV (60vDC) power, 24VDC E-stop and control voltages, and data from a host controller. In order to assist positioning the base unit, it can be orientated either ‘Landscape’ or ‘Portrait’ – with two choices of cable exit.

For situations where a reeler cannot be located directly above the hole in the ceiling where the mic cable needs to drop (perhaps due to space constraints in the ceiling space), WhirlyReeler can offer a small, powered, drop pulley.
