Auto Palettes
When the [Create Auto Palettes] option is confirmed the desk
generates a number of colour, beamshape and position palettes for
each moving fixture type in the fixture schedule and a number of
standard effects palettes, as described below.
Colour Palettes
The desk provides the following standard colour palettes: White,
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Violet, Cyan, Magenta and Pink.
Fixtures with colour wheel(s) - The desk compares the RGB values
specified for each colour on the colour wheel of the fixture with the
RGB values of the standard colours listed above. The desk
generates an auto palette for those which are within a certain
tolerance of the standard colour.
In addition to the above, the desk generates an auto palette for
each colour available on every colour wheel in the fixture. These
palettes are labelled with the stock colour names as supplied by the
manufacturer.
Fixtures with CMY or RGB colour mixing – The desk generates auto
palettes for all of the standard colours listed above.
Beamshape Palettes
The beamshape auto palettes generated by the desk are based on
the gobo wheel and shutter parameters of the fixture in the
schedule as follows:
Gobo Wheel(s)
– An auto palette for each Gobo present on each
gobo wheel in the fixture. Naming syntax is Gobo 1/1 … Gobo 1/N
(first gobo wheel), Gobo 2/1 .. Gobo 2/N (second gobo wheel etc.
No Gobo
– This auto palette sends all the ‘Gobo’ parameters to
their default values.
Shutter
- Two auto palettes (Shutter Open and Shutter Closed).
Position Palettes
The desk generates a single Home Position palette which sets the
Pan and Tilt parameters to a value of 50%.
Effects Palettes
The desk generates a number of standard effects (see Effects
chapter for details).
Auto Macros
When the [Create Auto Macros] option is confirmed the desk
generates a number macros based upon the fixture types patched.
These macros often include Lamp On, Lamp Off and Reset
commands.
