3.13 Pan & Tilt selection and position
To give a position to a fixture, you need to use the GROUP WINDOW and the Pan and Tilt channels of the
fixture. Select the fixture item in the GROUP WINDOW, change the values of the Pan and Tilt channels or
use the Pan and Tilt option in the PRESET PALLET MODE. The current position of the fixture is displayed and
you can move it with the mouse or a USB joystick. A right click will bring the fixture position on the mouse
position. A left click will move the fixture from its current position. You can use the CENTRE buttons for a
quick positioning.
3.14 Good points of the control windows
Thanks to its different modes and graphic features, the fixtures is very easy to control. A single click allows
you to control your lights.
You need the control windows in each mode of the software, SET-UP to test the fixture functioning, EDITOR
to quickly program your scenes and programs and LIVE to take control instantaneously of your fixtures dur-
ing the show. If the channel address is correct and you know all your light functions you can take control of
your fixture and check it. The beam must be open and turned on, you can use the DIMMER, SHUTTER, IRIS
and ZOOM fixture functions for that. Some fixtures need few minutes to heat the lamps and turn them on.
There are some short cut buttons in the control windows, they turn on the light, open the shutter and centre
the fixture position. If everything works fine and you can control all the lights, you can start programming
your show with step by step scenes. You need to go in EDITOR mode of the software.
