LP-3000 Users Manual
The LP-3000 places new LPT fixtures on DMX Line B starting with the first
available address (address 1 if this is the first moving light that you are
assigning to a DMX line).
For each fixture placed in the system, you have the opportunity to pick a
name, DMX line assignment and DMX start address for the fixture.
7. To override the default selections, move to the desired field (Name, Line or
Start Address) with the Next and Back buttons.
8. Using the LP-3000 keyboard, enter the desired values.
You can give each fixture in the system a Name that will help you identify it
during programming and playback. You can change the name now or, if you
accept the default name, you can update it later.
Line values can be A, B, C or D.
Start address values are between 1 and 512. If you select a start address
that is already in use or does not provide sufficient space for the fixture
(resulting in overlapping channel assignments), the LP-3000 displays a
message informing you that the address is unavailable.
9. If desired, select Invert Pan or Invert Tilt for the light.
These options reverse the values of the pan and tilt, making it easier to
create focus positions for groups of lights. For example, let us say that the
DMX value 0 for the pan moves the light to the extreme right and that the
DMX value 255 moves the light to the extreme left. Selecting Invert Pan
causes the value of 0 to move the light to the extreme left and 255 to move
the light to the extreme right.
This can be quite convenient when creating focus positions for groups of
lights that are hung differently—such as lights that are hung from rigging
and lights that are on the ground.
10. When you are satisfied with your selections, click OK or OK All.
Clicking OK saves the current line assignment information. If you selected
more than one fixture, the LP-3000 displays defaults for the next fixture.
Repeat steps 7 through 9 for each fixture.
Clicking OK All also saves the current line assignment information.
However, if you selected more than one fixture, the LP-3000 assigns and
saves default settings for all of the remaining fixtures.
