Zoom; Main And Sub Modules; Subfixture Mode - GLP impression X5 User Manual

www.glp.de
Position feedback is automatically disabled for a short time if you press one of the
control panel buttons on the yoke. This feature lets an operator move the yoke
manually for more convenient use of the control panel and display. Pan and tilt remain
automatically disabled while you are using the fixture's control panel.
Position feedback can also be set to constantly disabled using the Fixture Settings →
Position Feedback setting (see 'Position feedback' on page 20) or via DMX on the
Special/Control channel.

Zoom

The impression X5 has a zoom range that lets you vary the beam angle from 3.5° to 37°
(half-peak) / vary the field angle from 4.9° to 57° (one-tenth peak).
Control on the Zoom DMX channel moves from spot to flood as the DMX value
increases.
You can adjust the speed (and noise level) of the zoom effect, as well as the speed of
all other mechanical effects, by selecting from three different performance options
using the Fixture Settings → Performance setting (see 'Performance settings' on page
17).

Main and Sub modules

Some control modes divide the fixture into two or more modules (Main module and
Sub modules). For example, Control Mode 2 divides the Washlight into:
● Main module (Layer 1 = one RGB(L) Wash fixture)
● Sub module (Layer 2 = pattern engine with segment or individual pixel control).
The Sub module has its own intensity and shutter channels. Professional controllers will
handle this setup in a smart multi-fixture profile.
The Subfixture Mode setting lets you decide whether the Sub module should be
subordinate to or independent of the Main module (see below).

Subfixture Mode

The fixture offers two different options for control of the Main module and Sub modules
using the Fixture Settings → Subfixture Mode setting (see also 'Subfixture Mode' on
page 18):
● Normal mode makes the Sub module channels subordinate to the Main module.
This means that the intensity and shutter of the Main module act as global intensity
and global shutter.
● Independent mode makes the Sub module channels completely independent of
the Main module.
