FOOTER
The footer to the spreadsheet provides two additional controls:
Field Function
Graph The graph shows the level of each consecutive fixture
channel for the selected palette. It also changes
colour to reflect the colour assigned to the palette.
Live Test
Channel
This defines the DMX512 channel to use for live
testing the fixture data. If a fixture is available, this
greatly simplifies the task of data entry.
Warning
Display The Warning Display provides help with entry of
complex lamps. Show-Edit analyses the data as you
enter it, and checks for any possible problems. The
display options are:
Error: Channel x is duplicated: This means that you
have entered identical channel numbers for two or
more lamp functions.
Error: There are x channels over patched: This
means that you have entered a channel number that
exceeds the number in ‘Number of Channels’.
Error: There are x functions over patched: This
means that you have entered more lamp functions than
the number in ‘Number of Channels’.
Warning: There are x functions unpatched: This
means that you have entered less lamp functions than
the number in ‘Number of Channels’.
Unpatched functions transmit with a zero channel
level. This is therefore a warning not an error. On
complex lamps, you will regularly see this message.
OK: X channels patched: This message simply
confirms that all is well.
FINISHING
EDITING
To finish the editing there are three options:
Save As: Allows the edited personality to be saved as a new
personality. This is useful when entering a new mode for a fixture as
only the differences need be entered.
Save: Simply saves the edited personality.
Cancel: Drops any changes made during the editing session.
