Patching MultiCell Fixtures
Fixtures that have multiple same-type parameters can have a multicell profile assigned to them. The
process for patching multicell fixtures is similar to patching moving lights. There are a few dif-
ferences that are important to understand though.
Note: It is recommended that when patching multicell fixtures that you work in patch by
channel mode. See Patching By Channel (on page116).
After you have entered the channel number, click {Type}. You will then select a device type from the
fixture library.
Fixtures that have multicell functionality will be listed with a MC in their mode description in the
device list, and in the {Show} list.
Note: When using {Search}, the number of cells for a multicell fixture will also be displayed.
When these devices are patched, they will patch a master channel with a whole number for a chan-
nel number and the appropriate number of additional cells, which will have point numbers for their
channel numbers.
[1][0] [At] [5] [Enter] - patches channel 10 and all of its cells starting at address 5.
[1][0] [.] [1][2] [Thru] [1] [At] [5] [Enter] - patches channel 10's cells 12 through 1 starting with
cell 12's address beginning with address 5.
