Description
The most important data of everyone already become available equipment as well as their graphic position on the graphical view shown in the device list (figure 1) in the project. The data are column-wise arbitrarily sortable. The device list lets himself exclusively over the menu « Window » Menu item « Device » calls and can over the button « Copy to clipboard » be copied as tab-separate text into the intermediate file to be used further so in other programs.
The device names can be renamed to the better re-reconnaissance and the DMX address can comfortably in the decimal and be binary system entered (DIP switch).

Adding equipment is carried out via the button « Add », in which himself as in the case of the graphical view the window « Add device » opens.
Color and Gobo lists
DMXControl also provides the possibility of working with Color and Gobo lists. One can lay out different lists for a different devices or also at scanners and movingheads which these have exchanged colors or gobos for themselves which then are assigned to the device. The advantage is that one doesn't have to change the device definition file every time but can assign the new colors or Gobos via the Color and Gobo lists.
The construction of a Color or Gobo list new to one is carried out in the menu « Configuration » with the two menu items « Color lists » and « Gobo lists » The assignment of the prepared lists is, in which, at the corresponding points which Color or Gobo list select by drop down carried out one in the device configuration.
Also have to the function be input for Color and Gobo lists in the corresponding device definition file so that the whole also really works.
