MULTI FIXTURE

Show Designer 2 supports intelligent lighting fixtures that use up to 32 channels. Since most fixtures use

far less than 32 channels, Show Designer 2 will allow you to control groups of smaller fixtures that are of

the same type, under a single fixture number. For example if you have selected a 4 channel intelligent

light for fixture number 1, you can set multi to 8. When fixture 1 is selected you can use all 32 channels

available to fixture 1 to control these 8 fixtures.

NOTE: This feature is for controlling large numbers of small fixtures that use only a few channels each.

This allows more room for larger fixtures by not using up the 48 available fixture numbers.

You can control the individual channels of each multi fixture using the 4 banks of 8 faders. When using

the joystick, all of the multi fixtures within that fixture number will respond if they have a pan and tilt

feature. To control individual pan and tilt levels use the faders.

To select multi fixtures, move the cursor to the fixture number and use the + and - switches or data

wheel #1 to select a fixture. Move the cursor to the multi number or use data wheel #2 to increment or

decrement this value. You can only choose numbers between 1 and the maximum number of fixtures that

will fit within 32 channels. If there is no fixture assigned to this fixture number the multi value will be 0

and cannot be changed. You must press “enter” to record the change. If auto patch is enabled you will be

given the warning that some addresses may change. Press “yes” to continue or “no” to exit.

MODIFY FIXTURE

This feature allows you modify the attributes of a lighting fixture after you install it from the fixture

library. You can also use this to create a new fixture that isn’t in the library. To do this you must first

select a fixture as described above in the “Choose Fixture” section. Choose something that is similar to

the one you are trying to create or start with the “Generic Dimmer” which is the first choice from the list.

You can later use the “Copy Fixture” feature as described in the next section to duplicate your new

fixture.

Once installed, there are nine fixture attributes that Show Designer uses to define a lighting fixture that

can be modified. The attributes in order are: fixture name, number of channels, black channel, black

value, pan channel, pan fine channel, tilt channel, tilt fine channel and crossfade mode. After you have

entered the “Modify Fixture” menu, use the cursor switches to move the underline cursor to the fixture

number or use data wheel #1 to select which fixture you want to modify. Next move the cursor to the

“attribute” which is displayed immediately to the right or use data wheel #2 to select from the nine

fixture attributes which are described in the following paragraphs. Next move the cursor to the “value”

line of the display or use data wheel #3 to select the value for the attribute you are changing. Finally you

must always press “enter” to record any changes you make to any attribute. The message “DONE” will

appear in the display when the change has been recorded.

NAME is the fixture name that appears whenever you select or deselect a fixture. You may want to

modify this attribute on all of your fixtures to show fixture purpose or location. You must place the

underline cursor on the character you want to edit.

CHANNELS is the total number of channels for the fixture. This can be any number from 1 to 32.

When you change the number of channels be aware that other things such as fixture addresses and

number of multi fixtures can be automatically changed if you drastically change the number of channels
