Echo Software
You can use Echo software to convert, organize, and transport user
content to SHOWPIX and StudioPix fixtures as well as upload content and
fixture software to units on a DMX link.
Echo software communicates with SHOWPIX and StudioPix fixtures using a USB upload module
or a Wholehog single USB DMX widget to:
• Convert custom media files to a format
• Organize content for management and transport
• Upload and download content to or from fixtures
• Upgrade devices on the link with updated stock content and fixture software
Echo Setup
Hardware Setup
Echo software requires a computer running Windows XP, with Service Pack 2 or 3 installed and
an internet connection to download the software.
For uploading content or fixture software to a SHOWPIX fixture on a DMX link, you will need a
USB upload module or a Wholehog single USB DMX widget.
Installing Echo Software
The latest version of Echo software is available from the High End Systems website at
(
http://www.highend.com/support/Echo/EchoSoftware.asp
). After downloading Echo
to your computer, a standard Windows install wizard will prompt you through the installation
process.
Launching Echo
When you start up Echo, the software automatically initiates a Fixture Discovery process to
locate all SHOWPIX, StudioPix, and SHOWGUN fixtures along with any other RDM devices
connected to the same DMX link. A status bar along the bottom of the Echo window tracks the
fixture discovery.
Note: This will not happen unless a widget and fixtures are attached.
