Patching Fixtures with DMX Gaps
To specify a DMX channel gap when patching press the @ key a second time when the
“fixture patch” window is open. This will put the word “Gap” on the command line. Input a
numerical value after the word Gap and press enter.
Example:
[1<3 @ 1 Gap 5] will result in the following patch if the fixtures being patched are 3 channels
each:
Fixture 1 occupies DMX channels 1 < 3 (then a five channel gap: 4,5,6,7,8)
Fixture 2 occupies DMX channels 9 < 11 (then a five channel gap: 12,13,14,15,16)
Fixture 3 occupies DMX channels 17 < 19
Patching Fixtures with DMX Offsets
To specify an offset to be used between the start addresses of fixtures when patching press
the @ key a third time when the “fixture patch” window is open. This will put the word “Offset”
on the command line. Input a numerical value after the word Offset and press enter.
Example:
[1<3 @ 1 Offset 5] will result in the following patch if the fixtures being patched are 3
channels each:
Fixture 1 occupies DMX channels 1 < 3
Fixture 2 occupies DMX channels 6 < 8
Fixture 3 occupies DMX channel 11 < 13
