Fixture List Pane

Edward Updated by Edward

The fixture list pane is where you can select profiles for the fixtures you are patching into your show.  NEO comes with a library of profiles that represent the available fixtures at the time of release.  They are organized as an indented list by manufacturer, model family, variant, mode, etc.

The default fixture is a standard dimmer that only needs a single DMX address to set its value.  To select a different fixture, scroll the list to locate the manufacturer and click the arrow to the left to expand the list of models available and any further expansions to find the exact fixture.  When highlighted, a picture of the fixture (if available) will be displayed to the right.

 

The “Fixture Make/Model” box at the bottom can be used to locate fixtures also.  Click on the edit box and start typing the model number and as matches are found, a list will appear and become more refined as additional characters are entered.

 

As fixtures are selected and patched, a list is built that’s available from the pulldown next to the “QTY” box.  Thus, if you need to patch more fixtures of a type you’ve patched earlier, select it from the short list rather than having to scroll through the manufacturer’s list again.

 

Once the desired fixture has been selected, follow the Patching Operations section above to assign DMX addresses and a control channel (fixture #) for it.

 

If you have a fixture that does not have a profile in the library, there are some options for obtaining it:

 

1.     Create your own profile using the Fixture Editor supplied with NEO.  The fixture editor can be launched from the “Edit” menu in the Patch Detail pane or from the “More” menu on the live display.

 

2.     Check the Neo Console Programmers Facebook group to see if other users have already created a profile.  If you have created your own, offer it to the user community.
