DMXControl 3 lessons


Overview

This lesson helps you to understand how to create and patch your fixtures (devices) in DMXControl 3. We will also show, how groups of devices are created (automatically).


Lecture 3: Creating and Patching fixtures

The starting point for creation of devices is the project explorer. Here you can find a tree of directories displaying the equipment such as fixtures, devices, scene lists etc. The administration is intuitive by context menus (right mouse click) or buttons, e.g. for adding or deleting items.

In following step we will create 4 moving lights of type "TS-255". You have to fill in the requested data. Please pay attention to define the correct start addresses.

By setting the hook for "autogenerate group" an group element is created automatically containing all devices of this definition step.
