Lighting control system with wireless network connection

1. A stage lighting console, comprising:

a console device, having a processor;

a storage part that stores a program that controls at least one stage device to move said stage device, wherein executing said program on said processor of said console device produces effects on said stage device and allows controlling the movement of said at least one stage device,

said console also producing a wireless output based on said executing said program, said wireless output commanding different effects at different times, a first part of said wireless output being directed to said at least one stage device, and a second part of said wireless output being directed to at least one hand held communication device.

2. A console as in claim 1 , wherein said second part of said wireless output commands an effect to be displayed on said at least one handheld communication device.

3. A console as in claim 1 , wherein said wireless output is in a form to control a stage device which is a moving light of a type having a controllable motor, that allows moving the light in at least pan and tilt directions, wherein executing said program on said processor of said console device produces effects on said moving light and moves a position of said moving light.

4. A console as in claim 1 , wherein said control to said moving lights via said wireless network is sent over a first channel having security, and said control to said different computing devices is sent over a second channel which does not have said security.

5. A console as in claim 4 wherein said program accepts commands for the moving lights from a client computer remote from said console, over a third secured network connection, different than said first and second channels.

6. A console as in claim 1 , wherein said console controls a first wireless stream for commanding the lights, said first wireless stream having a first security, and said console controls a second wireless stream for commanding functions of the console, said second wireless stream having a second security, and said console controls a third wireless stream for communicating to client computers within range of the console, said third wireless stream not having said first security or said second security.

7. A stage lighting console, comprising:

a console device, having a processor;

said console device operating to control at a storage part that stores a program that controls at least one stage device to control said stage device, wherein executing said program on said processor of said console device produces effects on said stage device and allows controlling the movement of said at least one stage device,

said console also producing a wireless output based on said executing said program, said wireless output being directed to at least one hand held communication device that is different than said stage device.

8. A console as in claim 7 , wherein said wireless output commands an effect to be displayed on said at least one handheld communication device.

9. A console as in claim 8 , wherein said effect commanded by said wireless output is produced in synchronism with commands for controlling said at least one stage device.

10. A console as in claim 9 , wherein said commands for controlling said at least one stage device are via wireless output in a form to control a stage device which is a moving light of a type having a controllable motor, that allows moving the light in at least pan and tilt directions, wherein executing said program on said processor of said console device produces effects on said moving light and moves a position of said moving light.

11. A stage lighting device, comprising:

a mounting part, allowing mounting a light to a mounting part;

a controllable motor, that allows moving a direction of pointing of the light in at least pan and tilt directions;

a light source, producing an output of at least 100 W; and

a controller, that controls at least said movement in said pan and tilt directions, and controls said light source, wherein said controller includes a wireless network interface device, which receives commands over a wireless network, and compares each said command with a command verification also received over the wireless network, and controls said movement and/or said light source based on said command from the wireless network only if said commands matches in a specified way with said command verification.

12. A device as in claim 11 , wherein said command verification includes receiving the same command more than once.

13. A device as in claim 11 , wherein said command verification includes a hash function, associated with said command, and said movement and/or said light source being controlled based on said command from the wireless network only if said hash function is properly received and matches said command.

14. A device as in claim 11 , where said controller also receives commands via a wired network.
