SELECT – Manual, Group, Recent, and Standard
Manual
Lights may be manually selected or deselected by touching the cell of each light as
needed. To select or deselect a range of lights, touch the cell of the first fixture, press
and hold the Shift button, then touch the cell of the last fixture in the range. Fixtures may
also be selected by using one of the following tool icons.
Group
The Group tool allows rapid selection of show-specific or user-defined groups of lights.
Grouping reduces the number of lights that must be individually chosen manually. To set
up a Group, select the lights you wish to include, then use RECORD>Group. Groups
can (and should) be labeled.
Recent
The Recent tool provides a list of recently selected lights, which can be useful when
repetitively adjusting small selections of lights.
Standard
The Standard tool allows quick selection by certain customary rules, such as All Lights,
No Lights or by fixture types. Cognito automatically creates Standard groups of identical
lights, as lights are patched into the Fixture Grid.
SELECT – Settings: Light Selection and DMX Patching
The Settings tool allows you to assign specific lights (by model) to cells in the Fixture
Grid, to set or change the lights’ DMX patch and to set the maximum number of lights
shown in Fixture Grid.
Select a cell in the Grid to enable Settings. Touch the Settings icon. The tool bar will
offer the following choices:
Light Type: A menu of fixture types, organized by manufacturer, is shown. Use
the red encoder wheel to select the manufacturer. Then use the green encoder wheel to
select the model of light. Touch the Apply icon to confirm the selection. Lights can also
be added to and then chosen from the Favorites list for easy reuse.
DMX Address: A grid representing DMX addresses is shown, in blocks of 32
DMX channels or slots. The DMX slot number is shown in the top left hand corner of
each cell. Use the red and green encoder wheels to scroll through the grid. To patch a
light to a specific DMX slot (or range of slots for multi-attribute lights), touch the cell with
the ‘starting’ DMX address number. Touch ‘Apply’ to confirm.
Global: Allows you to set the total number of lights shown on the Fixture Grid.
The default is 100 lights.
