16 MAC 2000 Profile II

3 Pan calibration is most useful when multiple fixtures are stacked vertically. To calibrate, set zoom, focus, iris,

and tilt position for easy one-over-the-other comparison and set each fixture to the same pan DMX value.

Select one fixture to be the reference fixture. On the other fixtures, select

UTIL/CAL/P OF and press

[Enter]. Adjust the offset as necessary to align the beam with the reference beam. Press [Enter] to save the

setting.

4 Tilt calibration is most useful when multiple fixtures are arranged horizontally. To calibrate, set zoom, focus,

iris, and pan position for easy side-by-side comparison and set each fixture to the same tilt DMX value.

Select one fixture to be the reference fixture. On the other fixtures, select

UTIL/CAL/T OF and press

[Enter]. Adjust the offset as necessary to align the beam with the reference beam. Press [Enter] to save the

setting.

5 To calibrate the dimmer, select UTIL/CAL/D OF and press [Enter]. Hold a piece of paper over the

lens. Set the offset to 0 and then increase it until light is clearly projected onto the paper. Press [Enter] to

save the setting. Remove the paper.

6 To calibrate color mixing flags (cyan, magenta, yellow, and color temperature correction), project white

beams with no dimming and position them for easy comparison. On each fixture, including the reference,

select

UTIL/CAL/C OF and press [Enter]. (This adds a defined amount of cyan.) Select one fixture to

be the reference. Adjust the offsets on the other fixtures to match the reference color. Press [Enter] to save

the setting. Repeat for

M OF (magenta), Y OF (yellow), and CTOF (CTC).

7 Focus calibration is useful when two or more fixtures are the same distance from a projection surface. To

calibrate focus, set up all fixtures with the same focus, zoom, dimming, iris, and gobo values. Select a

focussed fixture to be the reference. On the other fixtures, select

UTIL/CAL/FOOF and press [Enter].

Adjust the offset to focus the image. Press [Enter] to save the setting.
