CHAPTER 4 - Automated followspot
Quick Start
The Martin Lighting Director features powerful software that lets you define
sophisticated automated behaviour for intelligent lights and media. The software is
described in detail in the next chapter. This chapter concerns only a very specific task:
to enable automated follow spot functionality so that moving lights lock onto designated
performers.
Here are the necessary steps to have the MLD control pan and tilt for a number of
lights to follow one performer, all of the other DMX channels being controlled by a
lighting board:
1. Install your hardware and software as described in chapter 1.
2. Calibrate the tracking system as described in chapter 2.
3. Calibrate your moving lights as described in chapter 3.
4. On the main screen, make sure the “Tracker 1” check box is enabled.
5. Draw a large rectangle over the whole “map editor” with the “Region tool”.

6. Click on the “Layer Media” option.
7. Click on the lighting fixture that you would like to become a followspot.
8. Click on the “Make Followspot” button and press OK.
9. If you want other automated follow spots repeat steps 6 and 7, otherwise press OK
to return to the main screen.
10. Click on the “Real-Time” option.
11. Press "OK" to save the changes. Using the dialog box that appears, save layers and
relations, giving any name to the map (for example “follow1”). Press "Save".
12. Press “Go”
