The "Create Wave" Function - GLP SCAN OPERATOR FX User Manual

o sine diagonally left
o sine diagonally right
• "Sawtooth 1" produces a saw tooth movement on the pan channel
• "Sawtooth 2" produces a saw tooth movement on the Tilt channel
• "Triangle" produces a movement in the triangle
• "Linear" produces a linear up/down movement on the Tilt channel
• "Jump" produces a movement jumping in the square.
"Wild" produces an overlay various sine and Cosines curves, which lead to
a soft, comparatively fast and asymmetrical movement. This effect can be
combined for example with a small beamgobo at slow speed. In connection
with the "Randomize" function several fixtures develop a spotlight effect
independently of each other.

3.11.2 The "Create Wave" function

If you selected an effect in the effect editor, then you can use this key, in order to
let the starting angles ("off sets") automatically manipulate the selected Fixtures.
With this key the starting angles of the selected Fixtures are varied in such a way
that successively 3 different kinds of undulations can be produced. So that this
function supplies a correct result, it is necessary that the starting angles of all
selected fixtures are identical before using the key. This is automatically the case,
if you selected a new effect.
Now if you press the key uniquely, a wave is produced forwards.
Renewed operation changes the wave in such a way that each second lamp
makes one 180° shifted movement first (allocation in straight and oddly selected
lamps).
After a third pressing of the key, the wave will be reversed.
A fourth pressing of the key returns again to the starting situation of the starting
angles.
Example:
You select all Fixtures in the Program mode and open the effect editor. As center
of the effect you adjust the DMX value "128" for pan and Tilt over the Fader. Now
you select the effect "sine up/down" and select any speed and size. All 12 fixtures
will implement the same sine wave off and on synchronously now.
