Fanning Parameters over a Range
Fan
automatically programs several fixtures at once to create symmetrical looks. When used with pan and
tilt, fixtures placed in a line will be aimed so they form a fan or a knot.
To use Fan:
1
Select the fixtures to program.
2
Press and hold Set .
3
Use the parameter wheel that controls the parameter you wish to
“fan”. eg, use the Pan and Tilt parameter wheels to fan the
position of moving fixtures.
Although mainly intended for pan and tilt, Fan can be used on other parameters as well.
• To create a nice rainbow effect across colour mixing fixtures.
• To evenly spread delay or fade times for a set of fixtures.
• To stagger the offset of effects using the Effects Engine.
Using Fan with Time
Timing can be staggered in the programmer time window just like any parameter. Press Set and move the
left hand wheel or enter the timing from the keypad. In addition, 1 Pig Thru 10 (ie, hold Pig while
pressing Thru ) will evenly spread timing from 1 to 10 seconds across the fixtures selected in the
programmer.
Grouping
Pressing Grouping on the Programmer toolbar will group together fixtures in the designated parts during
fanning. For example, pressing 3 Part means:
Fixture Movement during fanning
1, 4, 7, … all go one way
2, 5, 8, … all stay still
3, 6, 9, … all go the other way
If the grouping that you desire is not found, you can press Custom and enter the fixture grouping that you
want in the data entry box that pops up.
Path
Path
is the type of crossfade a cue, a fixture, or a parameter executes; it defines how a cue will change over
time. Some console users will recognise path by a different name such as a dimmer curve or channel
profile. For example, a PAR can may fade from zero to full in five seconds in nine ways:
Defaults The default path setting for the fixture as defined in the fixture library.
Linear Smooth, proportionate fade over time.
Start Snap change at the beginning of the cue.
End Snap change at the end of the cue.
Damped Slower crossfading at the beginning and end of a cue.
Brake Slower crossfading at the end of a cue.
SpeedUp Slower crossfading at the beginning of a cue.
Under The fade first goes in the opposite direction of its destination.
Over The fade overshoots its destination and then returns to it.
