The window panels can be re-arranged by dragging and dropping. To start off, the only panels required are the pages and master panels.
Each different model of fixture generally has its own page. New pages can be created here
Step 1
Select your fixture from the left. Fixtures are ordered by manufacturer. In the example above we are creating a page for our imaginary moving head which can be found in the "Generic" folder.
Step 2
The software needs to know how many fixtures are being used and the starting DMX address. In the example below we have 8 moving heads starting at address 1.
Step 3
The highest pan and tilt values of a fixture can be set here. For example, if you are using a moving head in the corner of a room in a club, you probably will not want the light beam to spend 50% of the time shining away from the room.
Step 4
The software will now create pre-programmed switches for many of the common presets of the fixture.
Step 5
The software can also create a variety of pre-programmed effects.
Step 6
You have now created your first page. Click here to open the 3D visualiser and see what has been generated.
