4.11 Help and Hints
Problem : LOCATE FIXTURE won’t work.
Solution : Some Fixtures use a zero value for the colour mix Channels to
give white light. These Fixtures must have these Channels Inverted in the
patch to work correctly with Locate Fixture. See Section 4.6 Inverted
Channels.
Alternatively the personality can be altered to automatically invert the
Channels.
Problem : Colours and gobos are not crossfading.
Solution : Set the Channels to be Fading.
Problem : I have a Motor Speeds function on my Moving Lights. I have set
my Pan, Tilt and Motor Speed Channels all to be Fading as I obviously want
my movements to fade, but they are all behaving very strangely.
Solution : By setting these Channels to be Fading, they are all implementing
the Fade times programmed in your Memories and Chases, including the
Motor Speed Channel. This is resulting in the Motor Speeds programmed
being changed by the desk fades.
Either set all three Channels to Instant, and they will no longer listen to the
desk Fade times, but only to the Motor Speed values, or don’t use Motor
Speed and leave the Pan and Tilt as Fading Channels using the desk fades.
Problem : I tried to program a Colour Chase and a separate Pan and Tilt
Chase, but I seem to have recorded some Pan and Tilt information into my
Colour Chase, and the Fixtures keep moving out of the Pan and Tilt Chase.
Solution : Use OFF to remove the Pan and Tilt Channels from the Colour
Chase Steps.
