How to add a single fixture?

Hi, 

I have downloaded the fixture I need to add to my library - but cannot work out how to add it into the console - ETC Ion XE

I've tried googleing for the answer and looking on the forums, and I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong to find it so hard that I cannot locate and add a fixture from my memory stick.

Can someone please explain the step by step I need in order to add the one fixture.  

thanks in advance.

    Hi, 

    I downloaded it directly from the ETC fixture updates on this site - I have put it on a memory stick both as zipped and unzippped. But I cannot see it from the anywhere in the Files section, the memory stick is there, but not the files that i can click.. I also tried in general settings but couldn't open anything.

    thanks

    You downloaded a file called "Fixture Library Patch v3.2.9 Build 8 for Eos Family.zip", right?

    If so there is a pdf on the same website that has the installation instructions. But just as a warning, it's a general install on your console, you can't just grab a single new profile by following those instructions.

    If you only want to grab one specific profile you should probably install it on a Nomad system, patch that one profile into a new showfile and then bring that showfile to your console where you can merge the patched channel.

    Does that help?

    Thank you, thats super helpful - I was trying to install a single fixture profile and now see I have to do I whole library update.

    Which explains why I couldn't work out how to do it - I assumed as I could download a single fixture profile, I would also be able to import as a single fixture it too.
