Note:
You can also add dimmers to a channel without showing them as separate cells on the
Channel Map. Use Add Dimmer and then set the channel number to match the existing
channel. Dimmers added in this way do not consume space on the Channel Map. For instance,
you may need one channel to control a range of dimmers for house fixtures without wishing to
place each separately.
Add Device
Devices are multiple-address fixtures with a number of controllable parameters , such as
position, color, beam, and intensity. Devices have their own personality , which defines what
each parameter does and which controls are needed.
Note:
Lighting devices with RDM available and enabled will be found automatically and
added to the list of devices in the patch, but must still be assigned a channel number.
Patching a Device
1. Press Add Device. This will open the Patch Wizard display.
2. Select the correct personality from the list provided. Select the make and type of device to
match the actual connected device. Some devices have modes that must also match on
the device and in the patch list.
3. Select Channel to enter the number .
4. Select Count to enter in the number of similar devices you are patching. If the quantity is
more than one, each device will occupy the number of DMX addresses used by its
footprint, starting from the address you specify.
5. Select DMX to enter the starting DMX address.
6. Enter the desired Spacing.
7. Select Accept to patch, or Cancel to exit.
For Example:
If you patch 12 devices with a footprint of 6 DMX addresses each to address 20, they will occupy
DMX addresses 20 through 91.
To patch devices with a gap between them, adjust the Spacing value to a larger number.
Note:
Do not adjust this to a smaller number as that will cause overlaps and unexpected
behavior from your devices.
For Example:
Your devices use 17 addresses, but you would prefer to manually address them at logical
starting numbers like 1, 21, 41 and so on. Use the Spacing cell to change the footprint to 20 so
that those devices will automatically patch at 1, 21, 41...
