Fan and setting Movers to Stagger

Hi all was really board in Panto today and was going to change a few cues, to keep me on my toes!!!!! I have 10 movers going from a audience position to stage, I know you can make these go individual and staggering them from left to right. Ive done this before but my minds gone blank. I know i have to go into Att and change the timing but for a life of my forgot how to do this. (God it was only 3 mths ago i did it or has it change in this update version)

Also can any give me some tips on the Fan button again we did this in our Training mths ago but because Ive not used this function yet totally forgot how to do it !!!!!! (HURRAY for these forums)

 

Thanking you in advance,

Carl. P.S Happy Christmas and New Year to All Congo Users. :)

  • Hi Carl -

     In the Preset Attribute Editor, just use FORMAT and the DOWN ARROW to open up the timing and delay cells, or you can just use FORMAT & TIME or FORMAT & DELAY to open a specific cell type. If you arrow down into a time cell, for example, then use the SELECT & DOWN ARROW to continue selecting, you will only select time cells for each channel.

    Then you can either enter a specific time and press MODIFY to apply it, or you can press WIZARD to get the Fan Time Wizard.

     

    Hope that helps!

    Hi Carl,

     To answer your question about the Fan function. Fan allows you to ofset fixtures with the push of a button. If you push and hold fan while adjusting lets say Tilt the Fixtures will all evenly space themselves depending on the Shape that is currently applied to them. To Specify this shape hold SETUP and hit FAN in the drop down you can now specify the way you want the fan function to work. Fan can also be very useful on fixtures with color mixing, it allows you to evenly spread Color variations on multiple fixtures, this is also achieved by holding fan and turning the Color you wish to fan. (FAN works with all parameters, but works exptemely well with Focus, and Color Mixing)

     Hope this helps,

    David Smith
