Operating areas can be created as required, without being obliged to form regular shapes, as

shown in the design alongside.

There’s no command for resetting a operating area once it’s been set, but to do so the 4 corners

are selected and the co-ordinates shown in the design alongside entered: 0.0 - 999.0 - 999.999 -

0.999.

Reducing the scan area of a fixture also considerably improves the precision of moving parts,

whether they’re mirrors or heads. In fact, reducing the scanning

area doesn’t reduce the number of steps for positioning, which

remains unchanged (255 for 8-bit fixtures and 65.536 for 16-bit

fixtures). If the fixtures being controlled don’t have commands

for automatic inversion of scanning co-ordinates, (to facilitate

positioning fixtures mounted opposite each other), the Scan

Control scanning areas allow to solve the problem by simply

setting the corner values crossed over (e.g. setting corner 0.0

as 999.0 and vice versa).

7.6 - Creating a program

As already said, Studio Scan Control has 12 programs for intel-

ligent fixtures, each made up of a maximum of 12 scenes.

To create a new program or modify one which already exists,

press the button: these operations are only possible in

this operating mode.

Pressing one of the PROG buttons (numbered from 1 to 12)

gives access to the required program.

To create or modify scenes, use the buttons numbered from 1

to 12 in the SCENE area: pressing on gives access to the requi-

red scene.

In this situation, buttons 1-12 of the UNIT zone allow to set the required values for each individual

fixture controlled.

For each program, operators can decide how many and which scenes it has, which fixtures work

in the program and which of the controlled fixtures’ effects accept the commands sent by the

Scan Control.

Once this preparatory phase is completed, to create the scenes in the program, just press the but-

ton of the scene to be prepared, then press (singly or in groups) the buttons of the fixtures and

enter the required parameters.

When the scene is complete, press the button to store it and then (keeping it pressed

down) press the button of the current scene.

7.6.1 - Copying a scene

To copy the contents of one scene to another, press the button of the “origin” scene, then

and (holding it down) press the button of the “target” scene.
