royeslough Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Hi, I have to program some Martin Mania SCX700 on a Zero88 Jester 24. I have looked at the desk, checked and corrected the setup ( the DMX addresses were all wrong!!) However, the SCX700 in mode two has ten channels available, but I can only control 9 (Colour, beamshape & Position X three wheels) Now I am new to the desk so maybe there is something I am missing, and also the description which displays in the LCD for the three wheels does not exactly match the description in the user manual for the fixture. Initially I only want to access some of the macros in the fixture to do some "Pretty things" programming of sequences by me can come later! Any advise on how the Fixture description (either mode 1 or 2 - currently the fixtures are set to mode 2) will give me easy access to the macros built into the fixture. Thank you Roy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeb Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 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 Thanks Mike, Pressing the attribute button lead me to what I needed. It is hard cross referencing the Lighting Manual to how the fixture has been programmed made worse by the fact the Fixture will not re-light for eight minutes after a lamp off signal, which can be set just by hesitating on the wheel too long. Anyways Problem solved so thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
