ALIGNING MX- X FIXTURES
To achieve the best results the MX-x scanners are
rigged opposite each other, divided into DMX pairs.
For example an MX-x scanner with DMX address 1 is
rigged directly opposite an MX-x scanner with a DMX
address of 25. See “DMX addresses” on page 12 for a
list of the DMX pairs, and refer to the rigging samples
in the previous section. Note that this configuration is
not required and you can also expect good results when
the fixtures are rigged in a line.
To align DMX paired MX-x scanners:
1 Power on the MC-Showtime unit and activate the lamps.
2 Activate the Position function, by pressing and holding
and then pressing . When the Position
function is activated each MX-
x scanner should
illuminate the scanner directly across from it. If the
fixtures are correctly aligned, shadow outlines of the
fixtures should appear in circles of light directly behind
the rig. For example, the scanner at DMX address 1
should illuminate the scanner at DMX address 25, and
vice versa.
3 If the fixtures are not in alignment then adjust their
positions on the rig so that they are correctly aligned.
4 Deactivate the Position function by pressing and holding
and then pressing .
