Strike/douse lamps

Hey guys,
I am working with a show that was built a while ago for me but the strike/douse cuelist was not yet done. I don't know how to go in and manually striks/douse the moving heads, so i want to learn how to, and then program a cuelist for a lamp strike and a lamp douse so it is easy for the other users on the console to strike/douse all of the moving heads. Also i can't seem fo figure out how to switch the console type on HOG 3PC, and i haven't found it in the user manual either.

Thanks,
Zack

    He's probably thinking of something like ETC's Expression offline editor, where you have to setup the software to emulate a specific console.

    That's not required on a hog. Every console has the same capabilities and can read the same showfiles. You may have to tweak the patch for a specific console depending on what perhipherials you have, but that's generally a pretty quick operation.

    To the first question:
    Strike and Douse are available under the "control" button. Clear your programmmer, select the fixtures you want to strike, and press the "control" key. You'll se a menu of options pop up.
