 ETC intends this document to be provided in its entirety.

Congratulations on your purchase of the ETC Congo Light Server, powered by Cobalt. The Congo Light 
Server may be configured to run the Cobalt application as a server, backup, or client in a Cobalt or 
Congo Family system, powered by Cobalt.

• When the unit is configured as a server, it is the master and maintains the show file and controls 

output to the lighting system.

• When the unit is configured as a backup, the unit will perform synchronized backup with a server 

and will take control of the lighting system upon the loss of communication with the server.

• When the unit is configured as a client, you can access real time inputs and outputs of the lighting 

system through the server.

This document will guide you in the setup and simple operation of the Congo Light Server for use with 
Cobalt systems, and Congo Family systems, powered by Cobalt. For more information, please consult 
the Cobalt User Manual, provided with the Congo Light Server on the included CD-ROM, or download 
the manual from 

www.etcconnect.com/cobalt
