Direction
The order in which chase steps are output. This can be forward, backward, bounce
or random – set when CHASES is selected.
DMX512-A
Standard communications protocol for dimmers and moving lights. 512 channels of
control are digitally multiplexed and sent down a cable to dimmers, which listen for
their specific data, according to their start address. The official standard is now
published by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) as E1.11-2004 –
USITT DMX512-A. The JesterML’s DMX ports conform to this standard.
DMX In
The ability to take a DMX input (see DMX512-A) into the JesterML, and output it
through the JesterML’s DMX output. This allows you to store the incoming DMX
signal as part of a scene or chase. These can then be replayed as a normal scene
or chase, but affect unpatched channels in the entire universe of DMX.
Duplicate
An additional DMX address given to a channel or a fixture.
Edit
This button loads the selected item for editing, and it will then appear on the outputs.
The LED in the button is then lit. Pressing the button again will save the changes.
Alternatively select a new location using the cursor buttons, and press the
PROGRAM button to save the new look there instead.
Effect
See Movement Effect.
Ellipse
One of a number of Movement Effects available on the JesterML for fixtures with
Pan & Tilt. The Movement Effect is selected using the wheels when the appropriate
POSITION wheel group is selected. By using the Size X & Size Y controls, an
ellipse can be made into a horizontal line, a vertical line or a circle.
Enter Button

on the JesterML.

fading down to crossfade to their programmed level.
