help with programming and off line software


Hello to the group !

 

I am new to the ETC 125 and need some help here ..

 

I am trying to flash 3 different lights  1 set gold 1 set blue one set red ...  Trying to give a 'glass ball ' type of look

I cant seem to find where I can cycle through 2 or 3 light per colour .. I need to do this in 1 cue so I can go to the next ..

so here is what I want to do .. dim stage lights to 20% or so  red lights will flash ( dimmer 1 then 2 then 3) a couple times then red off and the stage lights to 90%  then I can go to the next cue  I need this to happen for 3 different cues .

 

2nd part .. I load the off line software on my PC but I cant do anything its very small ( I am hard of sight with small items) and cant find to make full screen or set to the board the guild has

 

HELP please  tomarrow  tuesday nov 24th will be my 2nd day with this GREAT board .. I have got the basics down and happy with what I have learned  and I hope to be doing the lighting for the guild for a long time to come .. so any and all help you can fire my way would be great

 

you can post here or email me (kbcollies at Gmail dot com)

  • For the first part, the easiest way to do this is with an Effect Sub. (You can make Effect Cues but they're harder to understand)

    The manual explains these effects quite well, and there is also a useful thread on this forum about Express(ion) Effects.

    Second part - If you click on the top-left box of each Offline Editor window, a menu pops up that gives the choice of Tiny Font, Small Font and Large Font.
    Choose Large Font to make it bigger.
