12. Folder organization
The library structure is reflected on the hard drive where all files for the library are stored. The whole library is
contained within a special folder called ‘
Media
’.
Inside the Media folder is a collection of folders (000,001...240) each named with a 3-digit number. Each folder
following this convention represents a library folder and the 3-digit number represents the name of the folder.
Because of this, you can’t have folders without the 3 digit number scheme. You can’t neither have two folders with
the same digits.
Inside each folder is a collection of media files that the library folder holds. The media files also should follow the
3-digit conventions where a 3-digit number is followed by an underscore and a name e.g.: 001_testfile1.png.
Note that for media files the digit starts at 001_ since visual 0 is always considered as being empty.
The media files assigned to the DMX values can be sorted either in an
alphabetical
or
numerical order
. Default
assigning is the alphabetical order. If you need to change this sorting, go to the menu ”Personality“ and select
“Gobo selection mode“ option.
The numerical order is suitable in the case that you need to exactly assign certain media files to specified DMX
addresses.
The table below show differences in file
DMX assignment between the alphabetical and numerical sorting.
The table also includes file names without a correct 3-digit convention to illustrate their behaviour in
the numerical sorting.

* The 3-digit number has to be in range of 001-255. If there is more than 255 media files in the folder, files above
255 are ignored.
** The media file name does not contain any digit.
Subfolders 000-020 are reserved for default gobos and videos (from factory) and their content cannot be
changed.
The images and video clips can be in one of the following formats: bmp, jpg, tga; .png, gif, pcx, pnm, xpm and lbm
for images and mpeg1, mpeg2 for videos.
The folder "
Programs
" serves for saving recorded DMX programs (dprg_01.csv,......dprg_10.csv).
The folder named "
Update
" contains subfolders with the update files.The subfolders are created automatically
during software updating and their names matching to date when software update has been executed.
The folder a
