Sometimes it's nice to be able to just test a DMX channel without having to patch anything. Or you might have some
blue lights that should just always be on.
With a DMX view open try to press the following:
DMX
1
3
At
5
0
Please
. Notice that this DMX channel
gets the red background and a value of 127 (DMX is a range from 0 to 255 - 50% equals a value of 127).
You can use this on any DMX channel. Patched or unpatched - doesn't matter. You can't see in any other views that
you have this DMX channel under control - except the
icon next to the command line input on the left screen.
The DMX tester have the highest priority. This means that you can't control the output of the DMX channel from the
programmer, executor or by parking.
If you want to release a channel from the DMX tester then you can use off.
Off
DMX
1
3
Please
.
If you want to release all channels under the influence of the DMX tester you have two options:
Off
DMX
Thru
Please
or press
Tools
and then Turn DMX Tester off .
Be careful with the DMX tester. Use it only when appropriate. You can end up spending a lot of time trying to figure
out why a fixture isn't doing what it's suppose to do, just to realize that it's the DMX tester that's keeping the control.
Fixture parking
We can choose to lock a fixture so we don't change its values by accident. This is called parking. Try to set your
fixture number 1 at 50%. Now press
+
Pause
(gives you the Park command)
Fixture
1
Please
. Now clear
your programmer. You can't see it in your fixture views, but the fixture is actually still at 50%. Have a look in the DMX
view. Here you can see that the fixture is at a DMX value of 127. This values will not change no matter what your
programmer or cues tell the fixture to do. It's even ignored by the grand master and blackout key.
There's also a small parking
icon next to your command line input.
To unpark the fixture again you can press
+
GO+
(the small one - this gives you the Unpark
command)
Fixture
1
Please
. Now the fixture is back to normal operation.
Remember when we press the
Tools
key? One of the buttons in this menu says Unpark all DMX channels . This will
unpark all the parked fixtures.
If fixtures are not responding to your commands, then you should look if there's a parking or DMX tester icon next to
the command line.
In the next chapter we are going to look into macros.
