Changing DMX Addresses of Patched Fixtures

Fixtures can be moved to another Universe too. If a mistake is made and the address is
already in use, select

Inverting Pan and Tilt
If instruments that have pan and tilt functions are hung backwards in the rig, one or more
may have their pan and/or tilt adjusted by clicking in the box to add a checkmark in the
relevant option. For example if not all of your fixtures pan to stage left when you adjust the
pan encoder in the position window, then flip the pan on the affected fixtures. Only
instruments with Pan and/or Tilt functions will show a check box in the Patch Window.
You can adjust pan and tilt flip to ensure your encoder wheels work the way
you want then to, so that when you move the encoder clockwise the fixtures
all move in the direction you expect.
Removing Fixtures
Fixture can be removed from the patch either one at a time or multiples at once:
• Select the
[
Action
]
.
• Select fixtures in the patch list by clicking.
