Automatic Patching
The NEO RDM window provides a quick and easy way to patch all of the RDM devices that have been found. Before
starting this process click on the "clear channel assignment" and the "clear DMX addresses" button.
Next use the identify button to find the first fixture you want patched. Once you have found the first fixture you want
click on the "Patch" button. The selected fixture will be patched to the first channel and the first DMX address.
If the fixture (referenced by the Manufacturer and Model information) if not found the NEO fixture database then the
software will interrogate the fixture using RDM and build a suitable fixture profile. The amount of detail contained in
the new fixture profile will depend on the RDM commands supported by the device/fixture.
To patch the rest of the devices/fixtures use the identify button to find the next fixture and click "Patch" to patch it
into NEO. The software will automatically assign the next channel and the correct DMX start address to fit the
fixture.
