VX76 SOFTWARE USER MANUAL

Patch Editing

Patch editing can be done using the command line or the Patch spreadsheet window.

Important! When entering the universe/address, a decimal point must ALWAYS be used even if only one value is
provided. For example if entering both values, the entry would be [

universe#.address#

]. If entering only the universe,

the entry would be [

universe#

.]. If entering only the address, the entry would be [.

address#

].

Using Command Line

To edit a patched channel:

To edit a previously patched channel, enter [Patch] chan# to bring up the patch dialog for that channel. Here the
luminaire type can be changed or patch options edited. The DMX address can also be changed using the usual [At]
syntax.

You can also change the universe assignment for multiple luminaires with one command. For example, to move
patched luminaires 1-14 to universe 20:

+

[Patch] [Chan] 1 [Thru] 14 [At] 20 [.]

To delete a patched channel:

To delete a channel from the patch:

+

[Patch] [Delete] [Chan] # [Enter]

To move patched channels:

To move patched channels to a different channel:

+

[Patch] [Move] [Chan] # [Thru] # [At] # [Enter]

To delete a DMX channel from conventional channels:

+

[Patch] [Chan] chan# [At] [-] universe#.address# [Enter]

+

[Patch] [Chan] chan# [At] [-] universe#.address# [Thru] address# [Enter]
