Short answer: what to control the lighting with
For a few fixtures a fader controller is enough, e.g. FOS 6ch DMX console. For moving heads you need a console, e.g. FOS Designer 1024 PRO. Large installations and multiple DMX lines are linked through splitters and Art-Net, e.g. FOS Splitter 8, and software gives you control from a computer, e.g. Fortius Studio 512.
