16 of 44

In Normal or Hog II Warp mode you specify the number of heads you wish to patch followed by @ and the DMX

address you wish to patch them. The DMX address consists of a universe followed by ‘-‘ followed by the channel

number. For example to patch 5 Mac250 mode 4 to Universe 2 channel 1 enter

5 @ 2 - 1

It is possible to specify the Head numbers at the same time as the DMX address. MagicQ automatically calculates the

number of heads to patch based on the range of head numbers. For example, to patch 5 Heads, Head numbers 40 to 44 at

Universe 2 channel 1 enter

40 > 44 @ 2 - 1

In Theatre Mode MagicQ uses a slightly different Theatre Patch syntax. Specify the Head numbers rather than the total

number of heads. So to patch Head 10 to Universe 2 channel 1 enter

10 @ 2 - 1

To patch a dimmer, simply press CHOOSE DIMMER rather than CHOOSE HEAD and then patch one or more dimmers as

above.

Repatching Heads

It is possible to change the DMX address of a Head by simply moving the cursor to the DMX field an entering a new

universe and channel. For example to change a Head from DMX address 2-1 to 3-1 simply enter

3-1

It is possible to change multiple DMX addresses at the same time by first highlighting multiple DMX addresses in the Patch

Window by using SHIFT and the cursor keys, then entering the new address for the first Head. MagicQ will modify the

DMX address sequentially.

When repatching the @ is not used.

Removing Heads

To remove a Head that you no longer require move the cursor to the Head . Then press the REMOVE button followed

by ENTER. When asked to confirm, select Yes. It is possible to remove multiple heads by using SHIFT and the

cursor keys to select multiple Heasds.

Naming and Numbering Heads

Once you have patched all the heads you can then name and number them as you wish. It is recommended that you name the

dimmer or the head based on its location (e.g. front wash / back truss SL). For dimmers you may wish to configure the gel.

This makes programming easier – enabling the console to auto program cues for you.
