Figure 6: Fan Options
Pan & Tilt
Use the pan and tilt offset to position the moving lights into the center of the stage. Adjust the Spread option until the
desired look is achieved. Use the check box at the bottom of this selection to switch between a fanned or crossed look
on stage.
You can fan the fixtures in both pan and tilt by adjusting the appropriate spread. The spread function also allows you
to set a negative spread that will change the look of the fan operation.
Use the "Relative" check box to fan pan and tilt relative to the current location of the fixtures.
Color
The color selection can be used to spread out the color of several fixtures across the spectrum. By default fully
saturated colors are used for this fan operation. To use different saturation and intensity levels adjust the controls at
the bottom of this section.
Use the spread control to "fan" out the color of each fixture selected. You will see that each fixture is represented as
triangle that points at the color being set. As you move the spread control the triangles will move out from the center.
The center point can be moved using the control just below the spread.
The "Invert Colors" option will invert the color range used.
The "Mirror Colors" option will start the color range in the center and move out either side.
Other Attributes
NEO will also allow you to apply a fan to any of the generic attributes the system knows about. Select the attribute
from the drop down combo box and then use the spread control to fan the values.
The mode selection will adjust in what order the fan is applied to the attribute.
