VX76 BASIC PROFILE EDITOR USER MANUAL 3
OVERVIEW
About Vx76 Basic Profile Editor
The Vx76 Basic Profile Editor (BPE) is a fast and light tool that enables creation of simplistic profiles while in the field.
The BPE is not a replacement for fully sanctioned profiles, such as those provided in the console, and should only be
used in instances where there is not enough time for a profile request to be fulfilled by [e-mail] or when an
uncommon or one-off profile is needed. Basic Profiles lack many of the advanced features found in Sanctioned
Profiles and are intended for basic control of a fixture. In some cases, it may be necessary to create and patch a Basic
Profile to be replaced later by a Sanctioned Profile once it is available.
The Basic Profile Editor exports "Profile Bundles," which are compressed collections of the necessary files to
complete an entire profile. These Profile Bundles can be imported directly into the console for patching, or
transported via portable drives, email, shared drives, etc.
Requirements:
+ The Basic Profile Editor requires OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard) or later to run.
Interface
The Basic Profile Editor main screen contains controls for building the basic profiles.
