Patch

• {Address} - A required entry field for any device. You may use the [At] key rather than the

{Address} button.

•

Use the keypad to define the starting DMX address for the device (from 1 to 32767) or

a port and offset value.

•

You may enter a start address without defining an end address. Eos will draw this

information from the library data. If you wish to leave a larger output gap than required

by the library, use [Offset]. See

•

If you specify a start address that conflicts with other channels already patched, the

conflicting channels will be unpatched.

• {Interface} - An optional field used to specify what network interface should be used for the

output. When the field is left blank, the data is output on both EDMX and ACN. You may
choose EDMX only, ACN only, or All.

Below are some examples of patching from the {Patch} display:

Patching a generic dimmer:

[1] [At] [5] [Enter] - patches channel 1 to output 5.

[1] [Thru] [2] [4] [At] [1] [Enter] - patches channel 1-24 to outputs 1-24.

Patching a moving light:

[2] {Type} {ETC} {Revolution IR/FR} [At] [1] [1] [Enter] - patches an ETC Revolution

fixture to channel 2, with a starting output address of 11.

N o t e :

Press and hold the [Data] key to show the complimentary value. For example if

you have entered address value 514, the complimentary value would be port and

offset value 2/2.
