Home Function
The Home function provides a quick method of setting fixture parameters to their ‘home’
values. The home values are taken from the Edit Fixtures table in Setup and unless they
have been specifically edited they will typically be brightness (intensity) to full, colour to
white, no gobo, no prisms, shutter open, pan and tilt to mid-position etc.
Parameters that are homed are automatically tagged in the Program Window.
The Home function is available at fixture and attribute level. Select the fixture(s) to be
homed and then perform any of the operations summarised in the table below:
