MagicQ User Manual 17 Version 1.3.0.0

If you wish to patch multiple channels at fixed offsets e.g. four Martin Mac500s at DMX channels

1,21,41,61 then enter 4/20.

To patch a channel at a specific address use @. For example to patch 10 dimmers at DMX address 20 enter

10@20. To patch to the 2

universe use 10@2-20.

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

more dimmers as above.

In the Patch Window all the fields coloured yellow can be configured. To modify a field, first move the

cursor to the field, then input the new value using the keypad and keyboard, and finally press ENTER.

In this way you can modify DMX address, head number, head name and gel for each of your patched heads.

3.5 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). The name and

gel are used to generate groups automatically.

For dimmers you may wish to configure the gel. This makes programming easier – enabling the console to

auto program cues for you.

The gel field uses gel numbers. For Lee colours enter the gel number directly (e.g. 181 for Lee 181). For

Rosco colours enter the gel number preceded by dot (e.g. .14 for Rosco 14). For no colour enter 0. If you

would prefer to use colour names rather than gel numbers then simply enter the colour name.

To test a patched head or dimmer, simply press the TEST HEAD soft button and the head which the cursor

is positioned over will be tested. For heads it locates the fixture; for dimmers it sets the dimmer to 100%.

Press the TEST HEAD soft button again to turn test mode off.

3.6 Setting levels for Dimmers

Once the appropriate heads and dimmers have been patched then programming of the show can begin. The

Intensity Window provides the primary means for controlling the level of dimmers on the console. This

window allows the levels for dimmers and for the dimmer attribute of moving heads to be immediately set in

the programmer.

Select the Intensity Window by pressing the INT button. This window displays a fader for each dimmer and

head patched onto the console. Pressing the slider part of the fader sets the appropriate level. When a fader

is moved from 0 the channel in the programmer is activated – and the fader will turn red.

The SQUARE OFF soft button enables fast programming of intensities. Using the touch screen select the

channels you wish to have at full and at zero – but don’t bother being exactly accurate with the level of the

selection. Pressing SQUARE OFF finishes the job by setting all channels that are less than 50% to 0 whilst

setting channels above 50% to full.

Use the ALL TO FULL and ALL TO ZERO buttons to change the level of all the channels.

Press the CLEAR soft button to clear the programmer.
