Ion and Moving lights

Hello All,

 Going to try and program my first show on the Ion tomorrow...kinda pumped!  On my expression3 / moving light module, I had to strike the lamp by bringing up a certain channel to a specific value for a couple of seconds.  Now in the Ion, each moving unit has one channel, how do I strike the lamp?  Is it in one of the palettes?

 

Thanks in advance...I see many posts over the next couple of days!

  • Pat,

    If its like the EOS, There is a Lamp Controls soft key (after More Soft Keys).  This brings up some Mousable buttons in the CIA.  For my Cybers, there is a Fixture Reset button and a Shutdown button.  Who knows what else for more current fixtures.  These controls only work for fixtures in the library, not custom fixtures.  For custom fixtures you'd have to define a channel to to be a control channel, (but it can't from the Control Channels Parameters Catagory), then you'd do the specifc value for the specific time sequence.

    Good luck and lots of fun,

  • Brent, thanks for helping out.  Patrick, looking forward to hearing more about your first experience!

    thanks much!
