several minutes, the console will reboot.
Obtaining and Applying Fixture Library Updates
The Cognito’s fixture library includes over 1700 lights. However, with new lighting
fixtures being introduced all the time, updating the library may occasionally be
necessary.
In the event your fixture is not in the existing Fixture Library, first ensure the latest fixture
library is installed on your Cognito by visiting pathwayconnect.com/downloads/cognito.
The latest library will be posted here and marked by date. To check the date of the
library installed on your console, press the Power Button once, choose Setup, then
Software. The Fixture Library date will be shown at the bottom of the list.
To request a new fixture definition, please send a pdf of the fixture’s manual, including
all DMX assignment charts, to [email protected]. We will send you a new
library in two business days or less. Please keep in mind that for all fixtures without
Position or Shape attributes, there should be a generic profile that will operate the light
correctly. Many lights offer operating modes that duplicate functions more easily
accessed and programmed using Cognito’s interface.
To apply the fixture library update, use any computer to unzip the fixture update file to
the root directory of a USB drive. The filename will be CognitoFixture-<date>.CogUpd.
Plug the USB drive into any of the USB ports on the console. Press the Power button
once, then choose Setup from the onscreen options.
Touch the Software icon, then the ‘Install Fixture Definitions’ icon at the bottom of the
screen. The filename of the update will be shown. If more than one update is present on
the USB drive, then a list of releases will be shown. Use the red wheel to choose the
release you wish to install. To complete the process, touch OK.
You will be asked to confirm the action. During the update process, the console will
reboot to load the new fixture definitions. If you are using CognitoPC, you will need to
restart the program manually.
