Setting Pan/Tilt Limitations
The limitations grid allows you to limit and invert the pan and tilt values of a xture or group of xtures.
There are several reasons why this is important:
1. Moving-Head lights can typically pan 360-600 degrees. For myDMX GO’s eects to look good,
it’s best that they only pan no more than 180 degrees.
2. Depe
nding on how a light is set up (or rigged), the center point is not always in the center of the
stage/dance oor.
3. The pan or tilt is sometimes inverted, meaning that the beam won’t move in the correct direction
compared with the other lights in the project.
Setting the limitations for your xtures is a simple task that will assist in cleaning up and organizing your
light shows.
To set up the limitations:
1. Tap the xture group button to the top right of the xtures list.
2. Tap the limitations button.
3. Tap bottom center of the square and move until your lights are pointing at the oor.
4. Tap the top center of the square and move until your lights are pointing at the ceiling.
5. Tap the left center of the square and move until your lights are pointing to the left.
6. Tap the right center of the square and move until your lights are pointing to the right.
7. Tap the middle of the square and move left/right until your lights are centered.
For a Moving Head, the limitations square normally looks like in the image below.
For Scanners, limitations are not normally required due to the physical limitations of the mirror.
Repeat the above steps for each of your light groups, and then repeat with single xture selections
if some xtures are o-center.
