Pan/Tilt Finder

This handy little tool allows you to move all your moving head fixtures, or any fixture that has a Pan or Tilt channel.

This tool is a LIVE CONTROL, it will immediately take charge of any moving fixture and override any other effects currently active!

Using Pan/Tilt Finder

You can drag the dot around the box and the movers will follow you, alternatively you may move the Sliders for Pan or Tilt.

The Fan slider will adjust how much the fixtures are fanned in or out depending on how you move it.

When moving the Fan you can see below a live calculation for the DMX Values being sent to each fixture, the Fan is capped at the lowest point. so if you move your fixtures in such a way they are far set, the amount of space left for fanning will be reduced. Conversely, when they are centered the fan limit will be the maximum.

In all cases the Pan/Tilt values DO NOT RESPECT any Width or Size limits set in the fixtures channel settings, you can manually override their position anywhere within the full range of the movers.

The settings you set on the Pan/Tilt Finder will be updated live on the Live Controls tab, so if you wish to save the setting as a Live Edit, you may adjust the Fixture Positions on the Pan/Tilt tab then go to the Live Controls tab and click the red Disk icon to save the current live settings as a Live Edit.

You can also Reset the Pan/Tilt finder, which will reset ONLY the Pan/Tilt values, it will not Reset the settings on the Live Controls tab. However, the "Reset All Live Controls" link on the Live Controls tab, will reset everything including Pan/Tilt Finder.

Sequence Recorder

Once you have selected a Position, you can record that position as a Step using the Record Step button. You must have at least 4 steps minimum, and a maximum of 32 steps.

You can then save the Sequence as a "My Sequence" by clicking the Save Movement Sequence button, name your Sequence and it will be stored.

You can then enable/disable the Sequence at any time from the Move Effects Tab.

Please note: The sequence is recorded per moving fixture (Any fixture with Pan/Tilt channels). Id you modify, delete, or add new Moving Fixtures the Sequence will NOT apply to those fixtures, and you will be required to re-record the Sequence.

This feature is currently in test mode, and may be removed in future.
