Errors:
Selected fixtures addressed on different links - generates and error and the file is not created.
Download file too large for 2510 Memory - generates and error and the file is not created.
Sequence does not exist (a sequence has been deleted after the list was made) - generates and error
and the file is not created.
Warnings:
DMX Channel #xxx is Patched - The DMX channel used by the fixture is patched from another source
(DMX in or out). Since the data file to the 2510 is generated from the DMX output values and these
values may be influenced by patches, the patched output channels may not contain the values
programmed into the sequence. Remove the patch using the global patch dialog.
Movement macros used - If any of the selected fixtures uses movement macros, a warning is issued.
The file will be generated but the 2510 file does not include the macro information.
Fadetime used - If any of the fixtures uses fade times a warning is issued. Any effects programmed
with fade time will automatically be converted to be snapped by the 2510.
When the file has been created, download the file directly to the 2510 by clicking the Download to
2510 or save a binary file for later download by clicking Save Binary.
