New DL-2 user, couple of questions

I've got a show coming up where I will be using 3 or 4 DL-2 fixtures, which I have not programmed before. I will be using an iPC running Hog 3 software to do this. I've been working my way through the manual, but I have a few questions I can't seem to get a clear answer on in the manual (might have just missed them).

- the console treats 1 DL-2 as 3 seperate fixtures. The fixture only appears to accept one start address. Is this correct, or is there a DMX start address in fixture menu for each 'console fixture', ie a global start address, motion address, and graphic addresses?

- Can I use the VGA input as an one of the 3 object layers?

Thanks!

    Chris,
    If you select the VGA/5 wire input you bypass the computer sending the feed directly to the projector. This means you have no graphics engine control, thus resulting in no keystone correction, masks, collage generator, etc. The s-video input feeds the video through the computer allowing you to have full graphics engine support.

    Let us know if you have any additional questions!
