This window shows a list of all DMX devices. To assign a DMX device to a zone, you must select the corresponding 

checkbox on the right side of the list. There is a column for each zone and you can check their name by moving your mouse 

on the column header as show below.

Note: A DMX device cannot be assigned to more than one area. Assigning a fixture to a new area will remove its 

previous assignment.

4.2. Creating your scenes

4.2.1. Fixtures selection

It is important to select a zone before to create a new scene. There is a list of scenes for every zone (areas). Select a zone 

from the “Areas” window to display the attached scenes in the “Scenes” window.

Click on the “+” button (left-side of the “Scenes” window) to create a new scene. A scene is made with the timelines but 

the first thing to do is to select the fixtures you want to use from the “Groups” window. We will see how to setup and use 

the groups in the next chapter.

It is not possible to edit a scene without any fixture selected from the “Groups” window.  

Two modes are available : Fixtures and Rects. Let us see now how to use them.
