4.2 Patch
Patching is a way to reassign the order of desk channels to DMX dimmer
channels, and is generally only used for controlling conventional dimmers. Led or
intelligent fixtures are best controlled by entering the fixture b
y name in the ‘DMX
Assignment’ Screen.
A new show created on XC will contain 48 dimmers by default. To change this to
match your particular system, see section Error! Reference source not found.
regarding DMX Assignment.
Note: Using groups of conventional channels can be an easy and flexible
alternative to creating a patch.
The default dimmer patch is set 1 to 1, which is to say desk channels 1 through
48 are assigned to DMX dimmer channels 1 through 48. Dimmer to board
channel assignments are set in the patch screen. The XC is able to store
numerous custom patches.
All patches will be listed in the patch screen (See Figure 6). Only one patch can
be used at a time. Applying a patch makes it active, and the dimmer to channel
assignment changes at the time it is applied. Patches can be viewed by desk
Channel or by DMX Dimmer.
