Patch: Address Availability Grid

Hi all,

When patching and the AT key has been pressed, when you surf around the universes - pushing 1 shows addresses 1-512, pushing 2 shows addresses 513-1024 (absolute addresses), etc. Is there a toggle for this so that they always display 1-512?

Interesting..... and a good idea. In the same way that you can patch by EDMX address (1 - 32000 and change) or port/offset, the address grid should display the same. So, pressing the [Data] key would toggle to the port/offset view. Will pass along to the team. Forest for the trees..... :)

Thanks!

Awe... Mr. Badger has arrived....excellent.

Anne, correct me if im wrong, but can't you also go @ 2/1 or @ 2/2 for address 513 and 514, when patching.....

Yep, you can patch by both EDMX value or port/offset. If you press the data key, it toggles you between whatever you patch in and the alternative view. We have a DMX map though, which shows you which addresses are in use and which are still available. Right now, that is by EDMX value only.

Later ~

Yes, that's correct.
Wherever you enter addresses in Eos, you may enter them in port / offset format (2/1), or single number format (513). When you patch a channel to an address, Eos remembers how you specified that particular address and displays it in that format for you everywhere. If you hold the data key down while in the patch display, the addresses are displayed in their alternate format temporarily. To change the way the address is displayed, just repatch the address using the alternate format.

I did use the x/XX format and that works great. Since you already have the grid there I'm just looking for a quick way to see that I have DMX address 430 available on universe 10 and not have to do the math that 5038 is available on universe 10. :-)

Ah yes, that display. Sorry, it should work as described above as well, but does not. We'll fix that.
Thanks.
