Couple of quick questions

What is the best thing to use to clean the faders on a Titan Mobile? And how do you print a patch sheet? I've made a report of the fixtures but it only shows the first address... I would like to print what the patch window shows me.
Also, some venues require that I patch house light dimmers at different percentages.. is there a way to do this?

Thank you

Hello,

how do you print a patch sheet? I've made a report of the fixtures but it only shows the first address...


This is what your report should look like - and it's supposed to show you every fixture, ordered by user number, with every single dmx line/adress combination for each :

Are you getting something different ?

Also, some venues require that I patch house light dimmers at different percentages.. is there a way to do this?


If i'm getting this correctly, you are looking for limits settings :
Press Patch>Edit Fixtures(>next)>Set limits then select fixtures ; you should be able to set an upper and lower limit for every attribute.
Alternatively, you can press Open/View, then Patch. In the"Attribute Behaviour" tab, you'll find a grid with every fixture and related attributes. Click on an empty cell and use softkeys to edit limits.

If you just need to hold house lights at a value indefinitely then you could simply freeze the dimmer at the required level. If you need ability to control levels but without risk of accidentally adjusting at the wrong time then you could patch as generic LTP instead of dimmer. This is how I usually control house lights.

Thank you for the replies... What I do is patch house lights into one user number but in some venues they want some dimmers at different levels... my work around is to put those dimmers in different channels but I thought maybe there was a way to limit different dimmers within the same channel.

And since I put multiple dimmers in a user number the show reports only show the first dimmer.. is there a way to show all of the dimmers in the report?

Thanks
