The manufacturer has launched a new model of the fixture adding a second colour wheel. The
colour wheel is on channel 7. You would have selected the attribute as a colour, then go to the
DMX screen select 007 and press OK. If you have made a mistake and don’t want to save the
changes use the back key rather than OK
If you are going to create a new fixture scroll through the fixture types until you get to a blank.
You can then use the
Create
key to set up a fixture. Having selected
Create
you will see the
following screen:
The Tiger assumes that you will be using a Dimmer (or HTP channel) and a Pan and Tilt
Channel for each fixture. Using the
Ch+
or
CH-
keys to toggle between these three attributes.
Having selected
Pan
for instance select the
Edit
key. This will bring up a new screen:
Selecting
DMX
key will bring up a screen to allow you to set the correct channel number. You
can use the
Up
or
Down
keys to select which channel is associated with that attribute.
Alternatively you can use the flash keys to select the value. Remember there can only be one
attribute per channel number.
You can also set a
Home
value for each attribute. This is the value that the attribute will go to
when the home button is pushed. For instance Pan and Tilt are normal set to 128 while the
dimmer is set to 255. The values are not percentages but the DMX values. Dimmers are
normally set to full which is 255 while the pan and tilt are normally centred which is 128. You will
need to check what attributes give you open white on the colour attributes and what you need to
set the shutter to so that it is open. This information should be provided by the manufacture of
the fixturer. If you are not sure leave it at zero.
