Writing a fixture personality

Hi

I need a crash course in writing a fixture personality for a brand new DMX fixture.  I think it will have no more than 4 DMX attributes. This item is bespoke to my current production and is not on the open market.

The parameters I think are going to be: Distance, Speed, Pan, Speed

I'm programing it on an ION.

Would anyone be able to give me a brief explanation on how to access the fixture library, create a new fixture with 4 parameters, place those onto the wheels and save it ready to be patched to a channels.  I hope this is the right terminology for ETC?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks & in Hope
