Artist Help:Output Properties
This dialog displays the channel offsets and ranges of the output channels associated with a template or fixture. When designing a template it is important that pan and/or tilt move in the conventional way as defined by ShowCAD. If a pan or tilt axis does not conform, you must set the Invert check box for that axis.
Mirror Convention[edit]
With the fixture mirror pointing away from your point of view, moving the Joypad to the left should move the beam to left, and moving the Joypad forward should move the beam forward.
Yoke Convention[edit]
With the limit point of the yoke pointing towards you, moving the Joypad in anti-clockwise direction should rotate the beam in an anti-clockwise direction, and with the rotation at 50% moving the Joypad forward should move the beam forward.
Channel Offsets[edit]
It is recommended that you don't set the channel offsets from here since it is easier to do once all these controls have been added from the Fixture Template Properties
| MS | most significant channel offset |
| LS | least significant channel offset |
| Min | minimum level of channel |
| Max | maximum level of channel |
| Invert | check to invert output |
