MagicQ User Manual 102 Version 1.4.9.0
Use the VIEW HORIZ soft button to change whether heads are shown horizontally or vertically.
The VIEW NAMES soft button allows names to be shown. Deselect this option if you wish to maximise
the number of heads shown in this window or you wish to have a more traditional theatre channel list
view.
11.3 DMX channels view
The DMX channels view shows the actual values that are being output on the DMX or on the network.
Press the VIEW CHANS, VIEW DMX and VIEW CHANS soft buttons. Note that these values are the
real output values – if the output is enabled then these values will be the values transmitted on the wire.
Inversions, merging, and all other modifications are made to the values before they are displayed in this
Window.
Intensity channels are shown in red, position in green, colour in purple and beam in yellow. Channels that
are not patched are shown in grey.
Use the VIEW INPUTS / VIEW OUTPUTS soft buttons to view the DMX / network values that are being
received rather than the ones being transmitted. When viewing the Inputs it is possible to select the VIEW
MIN MAX soft button to show the maximum values received. Deselecting the VIEW MIN MAX resets
the view.
11.4 Movement view
The movement view shows the relative positions of heads in terms of pan and tilt range on a 2D map. It
also shows the current colour of the heads. This enables previewing of FX and relative positions without
the lighting rig. Press the VIEW CHANS, VIEW DMX, VIEW MOVE soft buttons.
