Eos Family v2.1.0
Eos Family Operations Manual Supplement Page 4 Electronic Theatre Controls, Inc.
For Example:
About Cue
In the About Cue display, three new columns that show channel moves have been added. Those
columns are intensity moves, live NPs moves, and dark NPs moves.
Effects Changes
Preprogrammed Rainbow Effects
Two new preprogrammed effects have been added to the effect list. Effect 917 is a Rainbow RGB
effect, and effect 918 is a Rainbow CMY effect. These effects are for a rainbow on native color
parameters that will fade hue from 0 to 360 with saturation at full, when the parameters are at their
default levels. 0 is the default for CMY, and Full is the default for RGB.
Focus Effects
When adjusting the form of a focus effect, you can hold down [Shift] while using the horizontal
encoder to change the vertical form.
Beats Per Minute/ Tap Rate
For step-based and absolute effects, you can set a beats per minute (BPM). For step-based effects,
BPM affects the step times and for absolute effects, this affects the time/dwell. Note that BPM
impacts the effect directly. It is not currently available as a cue level override.
There are two different ways for assigning BPM to effects:
Directly setting BPM
If you know the BPM, you can assign that directly to the effect by using the {BPM} softkey, which is
available when in the effect editor display.
• [Effect] [1] {BPM} [1][9][0] [Enter] - sets the BPM of effect 1 to 190. The step times will be
adjusted for step-based effects, or the time/dwell will be adjusted for absolute effects.
The BPM will display on the right side of the effect editor beside the effect number/label. Editing the
cycle time, the step time for a step-based effect, or the time/dwell for an absolute effect will remove
the BPM.
Learning BPM
If you don't know the desired BPM, you can learn the BPM.
From Live, with the effect running:
• [Effect] [1] [Learn] [Time] - posts Effect 1 Learn Time Sample BPM to the command line, and
opens the effect editor display.
