5.2 Editing of the Attributes
The Attributes editing of the fixtures selected, represents the main operation for the console programming.
It is really important to understand how Pilot 3000 handles the Attributes during the Programming. The
below sections describe the most used programming method:
the Locate command
pan e Tilt positioning
choice of the colors
choice of the gobos
other Attributes
THE LOCATE COMMAND
To
who is programming Pilot 3000 for the first time we suggest to start by assign a precis p rameter to all
the Attributes of the projectors selected.
The Locate function does it automatically.
The Locate status can be activated in every moment by pressing the LOCATE key. The “Locate” status
brings all the selection Attributes to zero value, except for the Shutter and Dimmer which, on the contrary,
receive the “full” (100%) value. In a selection including Pan and Tilt Attrib tes, Locate” brings their value
to 50% (Home position).
This allows, as first programming operation, to detect the project rs elected also visually, and to modify
their Attributes in order to create the scene desired.
Locate satisfy two important requirements:
1. It generates a luminous status of “starting” the prog amming, where all the projectors go to the “Home
Position”, with max intensity and without colour, gobo etc…
2. Assign a Dmx value to all their Attributes of the projectors selected.
All the Attributes into the editor containing a parameter assigned, are Attributes which will be saved later
into the Cue.
All the Attributes with no value (it happe s if “Locate” is not used as first programming action) will be
ig
nored when saving the Cue and hey will be consequently ignored by the Cue itself in its Playback phases.
