2.2.1

Changing the DMX address of a fixture

You can re-patch a fixture to a different DMX address or a different
DMX output line. All programming is kept.
1>
Press Patch (if you're not already in Patch mode).
2>
Press E [Repatch Fixtures].
3>
Use the numeric keypad to enter the new DMX address of the
fixture. If you want to change the DMX output line, press E
[Select a DMX line] and choose a new output line by pressing A B
C or D.
4>
Press the handle swop button for the fixture to patch that fixture
at the new address.
5>
Press Enter to confirm the change.
6>
Repeat from step 3 if you want to change other fixtures.
If the new DMX address was already used by another handle, the
fixture or dimmer on that handle will be "parked". All
programming for the handle is preserved, but you need to patch it
to a new DMX address using the above procedure before you can
use it again. If you view the fixture patch as described above, the
display will show "park".
2.2.2

Moving a fixture to a different handle

You can move a dimmer or fixture from one handle to another simply
by entering the DMX channel to match the address of the fixture, then
patching it again onto another handle. However, all programming is lost
for that dimmer channel or fixture.

2.3.1

Deleting a patched fixture

You can delete a fixture or dimmer from a handle if you patched it
accidentally or if you change your rig and want to use the handle for
something else.
1>
Press Patch (if you're not already in Patch mode).
2>
Press the blue Delete button (the light will flash).
3>
Press the Swop button of the handle you want to delete.
4>
Press Enter to confirm.
You can delete individual DMX channels from a handle by typing
the channel number instead of pressing a Swop button. This is
useful for deleting dimmer channels from handles which have
multiple channels patched to them. Be careful not to delete
individual channels out of fixtures using this function.
