Hi Ziglight I can confirm that the CSV output works on a Solution Console in ZerOS 7.7.0 and ZerOS 7.8.0 and 7.8.1.16 Beta too. That said, I can see a limitation in that submaster settings are not exported to the CSV file - Jon is this feature possible to add? I have uploaded a couple of screenshots as I am unable to upload the csv itself. Regards Mike

Steve, The iPad software has the same five desktop views as the console and also has a panel and wheel view too. I don't have an iPhone so can't comment one with the remote software. I favour using the iPad to remotely fine-tune positions and fade in/out generic lights for focusing, leaving the iPad at stage level if working at height from zarges. Each desktop view can open different palettes where I like having four quarter screen ones on my main display with two half screen width ones on the iPad. It would be possible to use the iPad whilst programming using palettes but would depend on your preference of what views were open. That said, even if four palettes open at the same time was a little difficult, you can have four or more palette/views at full screen available at the touch of a tab at the bottom of the desktop screen - you can also have individual palettes on different desktops too, so things are pretty flexible and can be set how you want them. Attached are three photos showing iPad mini and iPad; zeros1.jpg is the panel view seen for a Solution console - the Solution XL has smaller graphics because of the extra faders zeros2.jpg is a view I set on Desktop 1 for Memories and Submasters zeros3.jpg is a view on Desktop 2 for the Colour, Effect, Beamshape and Position palettes Hopefully this is helpful Mike

Hi Steve I bought an ipad mini specifically for the same purpose. I had no problems with it and used it as a remote rigger for when I needed to be away from the console during focusing. That said, it wasn't long before I gave my iPad mini to my wife and bought a full size iPad as the panel view was a little too small for panel view of my Solution XL view - I since found that it is possible to zoom in by tapping the screen with three fingers so things like faders are easier. During a show, I use my iPad and my main screen for memory and submaster views and my touch screen to manually run effects, positions, etc. Hope this is of use Mike

I have a Benq ET-0005-B touchscreen which works for me Mike

Hi Dan, Please find attached Regards Mike Chauvet_LFS75.ift

Hiya, We have a Benq ET0005-B touchscreen which works with the latest ZerOS software Mike

Hi Gio Please find attached file Please reply if there are any problems Mike Ecoline Laser and Stairville.ift

Hiya I think you are looking at the 7 DMX channel mode - had a look at the fixture file and all looks as expected with the latest console build. What is seen on the LCD is Cyan, Magenta and Yellow though and not Red, Green and Blue. This means the Magenta and Yellow are both at 100 to get Red. Red, Green and Blue can be seen on the monitor in Colour Palettes, Faders. If I've misunderstood, please can you tell me more info including console (and software build) and maybe a show-file Regards Mike

Hi Jimmi I can see what you mean. If you have configured and selected an RGB fixture and press the Colour MFK, the LCD display shows CYM and not RGB. This is a "feature" of the desk and I haven't seen anywhere in the manual if this can be changed, so may be a new feature request to be able to switch between different display modes. Traditional movers tend to have fixed colour wheels or CMY wheels so is likely to be an interesting discussion. The saving grace is that with a monitor attached, displaying the Colour Palettes and then selecting the Fader button shows RGB, CMY and HSV. Regards Mike

Hiya, I can't see anything wrong with your fixture file so as long as you are loading the user fixture type (UFT) file as per page 61 of the manual then you should be Ok Regards Mike

Hiya Please find attached file for 13 channel mode. I'm a little confused with the 29 channel mode as if RGBW are on channels 6, 7, 8 and 9, then how do the cluster channels work? Regards Mike Ayra_20140510.ift

Hi Jimmi, Try the attached file and reply with any problems Regards Mike Showtec_20140510.ift

Hiya, In the palettes icons I expect you are seeing IBP - Intensity, Beamshape and Palette? I raised the same to Jon and a fault has been raised. If I remember correctly, this is a feature for the Orb but not the Solution and is only seen if you have the desk in the "Tracking - Advanced" mode. I need to check my emails, but until a fix is available, you could try removing the SMART tagging option whilst recording the palettes which, I believe, will ensure just the individual palette options you are wanting to program are recorded. Regards Mike [Edit] I have checked and this is what I was sent; ZOS-5698 Palettes on Solution record ICBPE info with Smart Tag This is only when in Tracking Mode, with Smart Tag enabled. A quick work around is to disable Smart Tag. Regards Mike

Hiya, I can't find a manual on the web - please can you post the DMX settings or a link to the manual. Many thanks Mike

Hi Michael. Please find attached which has Person 1 to Person 5 inclusive - I think it's Ok but saw errors when saving the file with 16 bit brightness so have set brightness to 8 bit. Hope it's of use. Regards Mike Chauvet QWash419Z.ift

Argh - I accidentally pressed this key during a show yesterday It's so easy to say "don't press it" but I was adjusting my moving lights then somehow managed to hit the blackout button, leaving those on stage in darkness - thank goodness the followspots were on the ball The first time in a long while I've accidentally pressed the blackout button but a software switch to enable/disable the button would be advantageous to the console as well as to save my blushes

Roy, From what I can see the M2 mode of the fixture profile has 10 DMX channels; Colour: Color1 Beamshape: Shutter, Gobo1, G1 Rotate, Macro, FX Mac and FX Speed Position: Pan, Tilt, P/T Speed I predominantly use a Solution XL or Frog console so forgive me if this is something that you've already tried, but each aspect whether Colour, Beamshape or Position can have multiple "layers". This means that you press the attribute button, in this case Beamshape, more than once to view all the available options. Hope this is of use. Regards Mike
