•
Overwrite - overwrites the data in the show file when enabled, and merges the data
when disabled
•

You can map Eos patch fields to fields in the Lightwright file. Channel and Address must be

be selected again for placement in multiple fields.
The text fields in the Patch display and database will rename based off of the Lightwright
imported fields. See Renaming Text Fields in Patch (on page182) for more information.
Note: Eos does not currently support multiple gels per fixture from Lightwright.
