Hey there.... can you let us know what you need? From the fixture library, you can select "Custom", which allows you to build your own profiles. Take a look at that and ping us if you need any help.
No to be too obscure, but it depends on the nature of editing. At this time the User Value is the data stored in the cue. This is by design to support common data between fixtures such as zoom or iris. If you set a parameter up to be a straight 8-bit value and displayed as such, then moving the break ponit between ranges will only affect the behavior of the encoder. If however you have modified the User Values so that they are not unigue to each range, such as rotation speeds, then it is likely you will need to update the stored values.
I understand that it wont rewrite data that has already been written into cues. I was more worried that I might confuse the console by changing around ranges of a fixture that has already been written into cues. And it seems that I won't, so that's good.
I have been to the fixture library and touched on the custom settings but I did not spend a lot of time trying to figure it out. It was my first show on the EOS and we were running 8 cybers, scrollers, Martin atomic strobes, and Apollo rotators, plus building effects, so I was a little overwhelmed. I guess I was just looking for some pointers on how to build profiles or maybe how to edit the existing cyber profile. I work at the Tennessee Perfoming Arts Center with Brent, who has become a regular here on the forum, and he has been working with the console and cybers all week. He says he has made some progress on building a profile for our specific cybers and I know he has been on the phone with tech support, so we are getting closer to having the profile we need.
Also, I just want to say that the EOS is AWESOME! I have only gotten to program a couple of shows so far, but I love what I have seen so far. Thanks for making such a great console!
So I should write in here after I discovered it today. As of 1.3, when you create a new fixture and want to add a channel under a "Control" Parameter, don't, they're not working properly. Pick something you'd be happy with under Image or Form for your control parameters (like Macro under Form). You'll find that if you try to add a Control Parameter, it wont show up on the Encoders.
Hi guys. We are addressing the Lamp controls issue with custom fixtures shortly. Look for it in 1.4. In the meantime, Jason and David have identified a workaround.... little ugly .... but a work around.
