Extended controls
Extended controls for built in profiles
Click extended controls from on fixture tool bar to access extended controls (Note: for generic
DMX fixture profiles and user definable profiles this will access the extended level controls).
Besides a programmable fixture reset, the extended controls may include functions that takes
influences several types of programmable effects. Not all fixtures implements extended controls.
Programmable reset
Programmable reset control
This function is almost identical to the reset function on the fixture tool bar - however, when used, the
reset command becomes part of the current scene. This may be useful when the fixtures are running
unattended but within reach of an audience which may be touching mirrors etc. Take care not to
program resets into sequences by mistake - use the fixture tool bar icon for regular resets. See also
resetting fixtures, built in profiles
Fixture Stand Alone
Fixture stand alone control
Some fixtures may support activation of stand-alone mode via DMX. In stand alone mode it is the
fixture that performs via internal firmware programming and while in stand alone mode any other
commands sent from the controller are ignored. Stand alone mode offers no possibility of
synchronization from the controller. Sound stand-alone will use the internal microphone of the fixture
as source. Note that activating stand-alone commands oftens overwrite other commands such as
lamp and reset commands since the commands may use the same control channel.
Speed controls
Roboscan 918-S speed controls
The extended speed controls are split into two types:
Pan/tilt settings
These settings only have an effect on pan and tilt.
Tracking - with this setting the fixture will calculate a movement speed according to the DMX signal
received from the LightJockey. This means that a 5 second movement fade will move the pan and tilt
to the new position in 5 seconds.
Speed - this assigns a specific speed to the fixture. The fixture will move pan and tilt with that
constant speed regardless of the fades rates calculated in LightJockey. Use the fader on the right to
assign the speed value.
