You can also "range select" a number of fixtures by either dragging your finger down the
appropriate column of the desired fixtures or by using the trackball and "click-dragging" as
pictured below:
Select the remaining MAC 500s and set their universe to "1." You will note that the individual
fixture DMX addresses all default to "1." Range select the addresses of all the MAC 500s and
press the "Edit" key. The Maxxyz console will automatically address the selected fixtures based
on the required number of DMX channels. You may set the address of the first unit to any number
between 1 and 512. (Note: an error will occur and you will be asked to enter a new value if the
number of DMX channels required by the selected fixtures exceeds 512.) Set the address to "1"
and press "OK." All the MAC 500s are now addressed with the proper offsets.
Using the range selection technique described above, now select the universe for all the MAC
600s and set them to universe 2. Then select the addresses for the MAC 600s and range edit
those fixtures with the first unit set to address 1.
You can also range edit a number of other fixture attributes including fixture number (PatchNr),
pan invert (panInv), tilt invert (tiltInv), and pan/tilt swap (PTswap). At this point, range select the
fixture numbers for the MAC 600s and set them to start at 21.
