13. Working with Fixture Personalities
For each type of fixture, the console has a “personality” file which
tells it how to control the fixture, which channel is the dimmer (HTP)
channel, and a large amount of other fixture-specific information.
When you patch each fixture, you tell the console which personality
to use for it.
The console holds a personality library containing all commonly used
fixtures, but new fixtures are appearing all the time and Avolites are
constantly updating the library.
We recommend that you should update the library from time to time
to take advantage of new fixtures, as well as receiving bug fixes for
personalities and new features which may be added such as
subfixtures.
13.1.1 Downloading fixture personalities from Avolites
The Avolites website lists all fixtures for which personalities have
been created. You should look here first if the console does not
contain a personality for your fixture. The address is
http://www.avolitesdownload.com/personalities/
All available fixture personalities are listed down the left side of the
screen. You can use the boxes on the top left to filter the list to show
fixtures from specific manufacturers, or fixtures available for a certain
console, or to search for a specific fixture name.
Ensure you have selected the correct console type in the
“Desk” field. All Titan consoles use the same
personalities, but the installer program is customised to
the different consoles.
