Set minimac home position with shutter closed

[samcoombes]

As above, is there already a fixture file like this?

 

If not, how do I go about making it with the shutter closed ?

 

Thanks

Download the fixture editing tools from the Zero 88 website and install them on your PC.

 

You will need the Fixture Type Editor.

 

Run this program and create a new fixture type file.

 

You can then import the required minimac fixture type file from the fixture library (also available from the Zero 88 website).

 

Edit the default (home) value of the Shutter parameter to the required value and save the fixture file.

 

Copy the user fixture type file to a floppy disk and then assign the fixture(s) on the desk to this new type.

If you have any questions on the Fixture Type Editor, then just let me know and I will be glad to go through it.

 

There were several posts on this subject on the previous Frog Support Forum but they appear to have been 'lost' during the transfer to the new Forum

I still have a quick tutorial of how you make an .ift with the Fixture Type Editor from the old forum.

I can post it if someone want it. 8)

That would be useful - we seem to have lost the Fixtures and Fixture Library forum from the original Frog Support site :oops:
