DMX Control Setup
Patching the DL.3 Fixture to a Wholehog Console
Wholehog console library systems patch the DL.3 fixture as three to eleven “fixture types”.
When using Wholehog software: add one motion, one global, and multiple graphic “fixtures” for
each complete DL.3 unit in the Fixture Schedule or Add Fixtures wind (DL.3 #1 with user
number 1 = motion, 2 = global, and 3 to 11 = graphic fixture types).
Viewing Output
To output an image from a DL.3 fixture:
1. Open the Dimmer on the motion fixture and set the Global Intensity parameter to full.
2. Set the Object Opacity parameter for the selected object to full.
When programming with Wholehog software, the Media Folder and Object parameters default to
1, so choosing any Media File value between 1 and 37 displays a media loop from the HES Core
folder (Media Folder 1) on a flat 4x3 rectangle (Object 1). The Dimmer, Global Intensity, and
Object Opacity parameters all need values greater than zero for an image to be visible.
NOTE: If you have trouble viewing output and you are not using a lighting
console from High End Systems, check that the library for your desk
has the correct default settings for all DMX channels.
Shutting Down the Fixture
Recommended Shutdown Options
There are two recommended ways to shutdown the fixture:
1. A DMX controller can shut down the fixture’s motion controls and projector remotely with
the shutdown option of the control channel (see Fixture Operations on page 242).
2. The DL.3 fixture automatically shuts down in the event of DMX data loss. The default time is
10 min.
WARNING:
Removing power directly without the shutdown sequence built
into the two recommended procedures can severely reduce
fixture reliability.
