Patching

[Stefan]

hey,

I want to patch more than one DMX address to a preset fader but it doesn't work. I know that it was possible on the FatFrog by pressing the insert-button in the patch-menu.

 

And another problem. my leap frog is working in the basic-partial mode, when I chose a preset-fader (for example for a par-can) I can't activate the same DMX address with a submaster (the right DMX address is programmed!!) until I press the clear-button. But at that time all DMX output get lost!! In the basic - full mode both preset-fader and submaster-fader are equal... did I do anything wrong??

 

I hope you can help me!

The behaviour you are describing of the preset faders is correct. Because the LeapFrogs work with a program window, you must clear the program window to release control of channels to the submasters or memories. You can alter this behaviour in Desk Setup/Behaviour/Preset Mix Mode... change this to HTP and you will get the behaviour you expect from Frog 1.

 

The multiple patches are done in Edit Fixtures - select the fixtures you wish to repatch, then click "Patch", enter the new (second) dmx address and press "Add Patch". Come out of this window, then "OK" Edit Fixtures.
