City Theatrical has released an update to the DMXcat app that includes the Flicker Finder function in the DMX Tester app when connected to the DMXcat-E test-tool device. The company also announced it is shipping its LDI-award-winning Wing Nut Socket.


The DMXcat update (v2.1.0.9.0.0) is available in the App Store or Google Play (requires Apple iOS 13+ or Android OS 6.0+, 64-bit). The Flicker Finder function enables users to find the source of any DMX flicker on the DMX universe by setting levels and noting if any levels have changed. Users can take a snapshot of the slot levels of an incoming universe and detect changes in those levels. Flicker Finder will continually monitor the snapshot taken against the new incoming data. If there are any changes to the slot levels, the app will notify the user.


All new features are free to DMXcat-E users who update the DMXcat app while connected to a DMXcat-E device. The updates take 15-20 minutes, and the user’s smartphone must be kept charged and close to the DMXcat-E device throughout the process.


City Theatrical’s Wing Nut Socket is a chrome-plated solution that can be used to secure any theatrical clamp wing nut.
