28. The next step is to the build the fixture type so that it can be scheduled and patched in
the current show file. Press the Build Type button located at the top of the fixture
builder window. If fixture builder finds any errors a dialogue box will pop up and the build
process will fail until you correct the errors.
29. When the fixture build succeeds a prompt will appear alerting you that the build was
successful.
30. Open the fixture window and click on the Ad d Fixtures button. Use the fixture
schedule dialogue to search for the fixture type you created. It should show up as "Uno
Tutorial" and be listed under the High End manufacturer. An icon indicating the fixture
was built in the fixture builder will also be displayed next to the fixture name. Schedule
and patch the fixture to the appropriate DMX output and begin testing the fixture profile
with a real fixture if available. The DMX window is another way to verify the DMX
output is working as expected when controlling the fixture.
31. Once you have tested the tutorial fixture you can export it to a fixture library so that it
can be used across consoles and with different show files. To export the fixture type to
a fixture library select the fixture in the fixture builder using the current type drop down
menu and press the Export button at the top of the fixture builder window. When the
file browser pops up, select a name for the library and press O K. This will export the
fixture type into a new fixture library which will be located in the library folder of the
console.
32. To copy the fixture library to a USB flash drive go to the open the shows window
(Setu p → Shows) and select the File Browser tab. Drag the fixture library from the
libraries folder on the console to the USB drive. You will be prompted to name the
library archive. Give the library archive a name and press O K. The fixture library is now
written on the USB flash drive. The library archive can be installed on any console
running Hog 4 OS v3.9.0 or greater using the steps outlined in the Download and
Install Fixture Libraries section of this help manual.
