Fixtures
Every device controlled by ZerOS is known as a "Fixture", will be assigned a "Fixture Number", and its intensity will be
controlled using a "Channel fader". Fixtures can be a simple generic dimmer channel or a more complex device such
as a colour scroller, LED fixture, moving head, strobe light, smoke machine or media server.
Parameters
A parameter is a function of a fixture. A fixture with ten different functions has 10 different "parameters". Dimmer
channels are simple fixtures with only one parameter - the "intensity". More complex devices (such as moving lights,
LEDs etc) are fixtures with multiple parameters (for example "pan", "tilt", "red", "green", "blue", "strobe" and/or "focus").
Some fixtures may contain multiple operating "modes", which can vary the amount of parameters that are available.
For example, some users may want less control than others, so they can choose a mode that has less parameters.For
more information on this, please consult the fixture's operating manual.
Attributes
Parameters are grouped together into four attributes for easy access and control. These attributes are called "Colour",
"Beam", "Shape" and "Position". A fifth attribute, called "Effect", manipulates parameters to create effects such as
"Circle", "Ballyhoo" and "Rainbow".
For information on patching, and other settings worth configuring prior to controlling your fixtures,
take a look at the training session below...
