  1. Sounds like it - yep. Hold SETUP, press the button under the fader, and then turn off “Release on lower”… then do it for the other playback too. This should then behave exactly as you’ve described you’d like it too.
  2. This is the bit which matters - so just follow the instructions for “Consoles running ZerOS 7.8.3 or later”
  3. We moved the "Delete Fixture" function to Setup > Set Channel # in ZerOS 7.14 (Release Notes here - see "ZOS-11043"). We wanted clarity between "Delete" and "Unpatch" (and going into "Edit DMX Address" to delete a fixture didn't make much sense). Also, much more easily, it's possible to select the fixtures whilst in the Fixture Schedule (using the channel buttons) and press "Delete".
  4. You can follow these steps to find an alternative fixture profile that will work, or create your own. https://www.zero88.com/manuals/zeros/patching/add-fixtures/missing-fixtures Also worth asking Elation to create a GDTF file for their fixtures - the industry is moving towards this being the responsibility of the fixture manufacture as part of their launch material.
  5. As well as voting, it’s always good to post a comment on that thread explaining how you would use the feature
  6. I’ll need to look at this on Monday, as I thought it should be 1 January 1970 - but it might be you’re operating system knowing that can’t be true.
  7. Oh yes it does! But it’s automatically hidden if you’re filtering by a “FLX S” variant: https://www.zero88.com/manuals/zeros/setup/settings “All ZerOS consoles except FLX S have an internal clock. Press the Date & Time button on the monitor to open the Set Date and Time window. Enter the correct time, day, month and year in the fields provided and then confirm by selecting the OK button. This setting is especially important when using Real Time cue triggers.”
  8. Auto Cues would achieve this? https://www.zero88.com/manuals/zeros/cues-playbacks/cue-settings/cue-triggers
  9. (Also, worth noting that you're using quite old software by the looks of it - you can update here: https://www.vari-lite.com/global/products/zeros-software)
  10. Right here is a good option! Let us know the issue, and we’ll investigate it. Follow these instructions: https://www.zero88.com/manuals/zeros/patching/add-fixtures/missing-fixtures
  11. Follow these instructions: https://www.zero88.com/manuals/zeros/patching/add-fixtures/missing-fixtures
  12. If you click that “Source” button at the top, ZerOS will tell you.
  13. Now we have OSC, I've reworded this poll option to be more inclusive: "Trigger outputs (e.g., OSC, MIDI, Vision.Net - to trigger 3rd Party devices from the console)". @Muller Light - get voting!
  14. ZerOS 7.14 has been released which fulfils "OSC triggering" so I've removed this option from the poll. At the time, it was at 2.56% with 8 votes. I've reached out to those who voted for "DMX In over ethernet" (1.6% with 5 votes) to ask if their need was just "DMX In", or specifically "over ethernet" (as we didn't differentiate between these). Based on the feedback, I believe the DMX In functionality introduced in ZerOS 7.14 mostly fulfils this need and so I have removed this option from the poll too - we can always add it back if there's a specific need for DMX In over ethernet.
  15. There isn’t, but you could probably achieve the same using Inhibit Playbacks - essentially creating a Grand Master of just some channels?
  16. It is unsafe... the corporate police will be after you! 🕵
  17. Let us know how you get on with the integration into ZerOS beta... there will be a new beta soon fixing a few of the pesky OSC bugs.
  18. I was a big fan of Paul Daniels as a kid! This actually changed in ZerOS 7.10. Before that, the syntax wasn't available on FLX. When we made it available on FLX, we also changed its behaviour to scale. It's all about when we think these two features are most likely to be used: The Intensity Wheel is usually used to adjust the intensity of fixtures whilst looking at the stage (when multiple fixtures are selected, they are often all the same intensity). Just like a fader, the wheel can adjust the fixtures down to 0% and up to 100%. Therefore, adjusting the value relative to its current value makes sense. If the intensity wheel scaled based on a fixture's current value, it would be impossible to adjust a fixture at 0% using the intensity wheel! Syntax (such as @-20) is most useful to say "I like this scene but make it 20% dimmer" - meaning 20% of their current intensity, not 20% of their maximum intensity. Info from the ZerOS 7.10 release notes:
  19. I guess not too dissimilar to what we already have with this page: https://www.zero88.com/manuals/zeros/patching/add-fixtures/missing-fixtures
  20. The Neo manual is currently here, but we're not 100% happy with it either: https://neofamily.helpdocs.io/
  21. This is just a PDF, right? Is the issue actually that we need a better PDF option? As that might be more achievable.
  22. Are you able to download them from either of these links? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eaton.ZerOSMonitor.Rigger https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eaton.ZerOSRemote.Rigger
  23. The forum software has been upgraded... let us know if you see any issues 🙂
  24. We expect the forum to be offline at various points tomorrow (Thursday 11th May 2023). We’ll be back online as soon as possible!
