LightJockey Help
Normal mode - this will override the fast setting in the fixture and force normal mode.
Fast mode - this will override the normal setting in the fixture and force fast mode.
B/O while moving - this will prompt the fixture to shut off the light while the pan and tilt is moving to a
new position. This should not be used when moving pan and tilt in slow fading scenes.
Effect Settings
These settings will usually have effect on any other effect (color, gobo , intensity etc).
Tracking - the fixture will calculate effect speeds according to the DMX signals received from
LightJockey. This means that for example that a color change programmed as a 5 second fade will
take 5 seconds.
Speed - this will assign a specific fixed speed to all effects. They will no longer move according to any
fades programmed into scenes. Use the fader on the right to assign the speed value. In certain
instances this is the only way to control speeds on some effects (e.g. gobo shake speed on the
RoboScan 918-S or MAC 500-S).
Shortcuts Disabled - this will override the shortcut enabled setting in the fixture.
Shortcuts Enabled - this will override the shortcut disabled setting in the fixture.
B/O When Moving - when enabled the fixture will cut off the light output while effects are moving, for
example to hide a shift from one gobo to another.
Shortcuts
Some fixtures implement a shortcut feature. Shortcut means that the fixture will use the shortest/
fastest route to the new effect position. For example on a color wheel, when shortcut is disabled, the
fixture will go the 'long way' from the first to the last color. If shortcut is enabled, the fixture will move
the 'shortest' distance (the other way around).

Extended controls for user defined profiles
Click extended controls from on fixture tool bar to access extended controls. The extended
controls are used for controlling functions that does not fit well into the predefined fixture functions
such as color or gobo palettes. The control mimics a standard 8-bit DMX fader layout (DMX channel
based, values from 0 to 255). Since the control doesn't really reflect the effect it is often necessary to
refer to the fixture DMX protocol when using the extended controls (note: some profiles have DMX
values documented in profile notes).
