### What is the Stagehand Pro 3E? <a href="#h.1nynxkk9ih7j" id="h.1nynxkk9ih7j"></a>

The Stagehand Pro 3E looks like a Stagehand Pro 3 AC and is functionally identical to a Stagehand Pro 4. I bet you’re wondering why we would do this… supply chain woes are a real thing. Our go to VFD - the Mitsubishi A800 - was not available on any sort of reasonable lead time, but we could get the Mitsubishi E800’s! While we were at it we upgraded the control card too!

### Stagehand Pro 3E Features <a href="#h.fzg7gvrmlutv" id="h.fzg7gvrmlutv"></a>

* 5HP motor control
* Dual Brake support
* Load cell support
* Cross groove detection
* Branch circuit protection

## Controls and Connections <a href="#h.oucei1y29kxz" id="h.oucei1y29kxz"></a>

The Stagehand Pro 3E connections are identical to the Pro 3 while the controls are more like a Stagehand Pro 4.
