Pan and Tilt
Studio Spot has the capability of 370° pan and 255° tilt movement. DMX
channels 1 and 3 provide coarse positioning of approximately 1°, while
channels 2 and 4 provide fine positioning between the 1° steps.
The MSpeed construct provides 16-bit internal processing of pan and tilt
movement to provide extremely smooth motion between programmed
positions. By default, MSpeed is enabled on the pan and tilt systems.
However, you can disable MSpeed on pan and tilt systems and allow your
controller to crossfade the fixture. Refer to "Disabling MSpeed for Pan and
Tilt" on page 2-11.
Optical encoders for the pan and tilt systems instantly correct positions if
the fixture is jarred from its programmed position. The fixture will attempt
to correct the position(s) numerous times before it times out. The time-out
prevents wear on the motor and belt systems in the event of a physical
obstruction. If a fixture times out, remove the obstruction and home the
fixture to return it to operation.
