Fixture Programming

2.0 fixtures can be programmed to provide hard edge beam
with full CMY color, multiple gobo patterns and effects, as well as a
variety of Shutter/Lamp functions.
DMX Programming Overview
A parameter is a fixture attribute that can be controlled to modify the light beam in terms of
color, beam quality and pattern, intensity, or focus (position). DMX programming assigns a DMX
value to each of the fixture’s parameters. A look (sometimes referred to a
scene
or a
cue
) is one
combination of parameter settings. These looks are the building blocks for show creation.
Full Speed verses MSpeed Control
Some parameters can be set to operate at full speed or MSpeed (motor speed). Full speed
operations are completed in the shortest length of time after the motor starts moving. With
MSpeed control, change occurs smoothly over the entire MSpeed time value selected. For
example, if you select an MSpeed time of 30 seconds, the motor will gradually change position
until it reaches its new destination at the end of 30 seconds.
DMX Programming Options
Using a DMX controller, you can program an unlimited number of looks and retain direct control
over the Cyberlight® 2.0 fixture at all times.
