Artist Help:Parameter Properties Presets

From ShowCAD Wiki

The preset level is used to test a fixture and to provide usefull programming levels.

Dimmer[edit]

For dimmers this level should be maximum. This will provide a light on function and will allow you to see the other parameters as they are being tested.

Mirror and Yoke[edit]

For mirrors and yokes this should be approximately 50% tilt and 50% pan. In other words in the middle of the range of movement. This will provide a useful position for the beam during testing.

Gobo, Color, Effect, Rotate[edit]

These parameters should be usually zero. In other words no color, gobo, effect or rotate.

Iris[edit]

The iris should be set to maximum beam width.

Focus[edit]

Choose a level which would focus a gobo at a useful distance from rig to floor.

Shutter[edit]

The shutter level should be open.
