Assigning Fixtures

Exactly how do you assign fixtures. I've been into the superuser and assigned the fixtures I've got but at no point did it ask me the start address of each of the fixtures?

 

So I thought ok, I'll make them do something and then look at the DMX output screen. Nothing was happening. The fixture preview screen said something was happening, but the DMX screen, nothing.

 

Am I being utterly stupid. I've never had to assign the fixtures before, they've always been done before I arrive at a desk.

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Dear cherowbrier

after assigning your fixtures

go into superuser->desksetup->patchfunctions select "manual"

then press first assigned fixturebutton the screen will jump onto f1= then push in via +/- or external keyboard the DMX start address of the unit go to the next fixt. and enter the DMX Start address of this unit and so on.
