Rotating Gobo Index/Rotation
The rotating gobo wheel operates in two modes: INDEX Mode and ROTATE Mode. The
corresponding values are given in the DMX Map Tables below. Gobos will also behave as follows:
• It is not necessary for the wheel to complete a full revolution to change a gobo from indexing
mode to rotating mode.
• Timed moves are only available using the Gobo Time channel (21).
• Spins are variable from DMX 217-233 for CCW fast to slow, and 239-255 for CW slow to fast
• When selected as index mode, value 0 to 255 will position the gobo. Use channel 16 as a fine
adjustment of the gobo’s position.
