To edit a set, touch (click on) a set name to 
highlight the row, then click the "Edit Set…" 
button.  Let's try doing this to take a look at 
fixed-speed set FS1.  We touch the name 
FS1 to highlight it, and touch the "Edit 
Set…" button to open the Edit Set display. 

  

 

 

The parameters in the left-hand window control the appearance of the set model in the 3-D display on the 
main screen.  These are as follows: 

  Position relative to base motor – 

The base motor height is the 
position of the batten.  The model 
height is the height of the batten.  
This setting adjusts the position of 
the model height relative to the 
base motor height (use a negative 
number for the distance the set 
extends below the batten, or a 
positive number for something 
extending above the batten). 

 

 Model width - represents the length 
of the batten/set from stage left to 
stage right end 

  Model depth - represents the width 

of the batten/set from upstage to 

downstage 

 

Model height - represents the height of the batten and set in the vertical axis 

 

Upstage - represents the distance that the (center) of the set is upstage of the proscenium / reference 
line. 

 

Stage -Right/+Left – represents the distance that the (center) of the set is with reference to the center line 
of the stage, with the center line at 0, positive numbers going up toward Stage Left, and negative 
numbers toward Stage Right. 

This example shows a single-axis fixed-
speed unit.  Variable-speed units have a 
couple of additional parameter relating to the 
set speed.  These include: 

  Default velocity (per second) - sets the 

default set speed when the unit is first 
selected or enabled. 

  Default acceleration (in seconds) - sets 

the default acceleration time when the 
unit is first selected or enabled. 

 

Default deceleration (in seconds) - sets 
the default deceleration time when the
