Loading Custom Fixtures

[mattlad564]

Hi all,

 

I am trying to use the phantom jester software to assign fixtures on the desk and set up the dmx patching before going into the hall where the desk is as its hard to get in at the moment due to exams.

 

I cannot get the software to find my custom fixture files which are saved onto my laptop.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Matt

Hi Matt,

 

You need to tell Phantom Jester where the file is stored (as Jester Software doesn't deal with directories/folders).

 

In the small Phantom Jester window, click "Settings" and then choose "Browse" under "Local Drive".

Choose the location of the ift files (I usually point it to my desktop or the USB drive). Now, you can load the ift files into Phantom in the same way you'd do it on a real console.
