Pan and Tilt

Studio Color has the capability of 370° pan and 240° tilt movement. When
programming pan and tilt sequences, consider MSpeed as a new position may be given
before the last position was reached (MSpeed greater than delay). Studio Color
supports both 8-bit and 16-bit DMX controllers. Channels 1 and 3 provide coarse
positioning of approximately 1° while Channels 2 and 4 provide fine positioning
between the 1° steps. Studio Color provides 16-bit internal processing of pan and tilt
movement. If you are using an 8-bit DMX controller, we recommend using MSpeed to
provide smooth and natural motion between programmed positions.
Studio Color 575-S includes optical encoders which instantly correct the pan
and tilt positions if the fixture is heavily jarred. The fixture will attempt to
correct the positions numerous times before it times out.
