Z Rotation
The Z Rotation parameter rotates or indexes the selected Graphic Object around the Z axis
with 16-bit precision. You can index the rotation or set a continuous rotation creating a circular
spin at variable speeds.
Default DMX Value: 32768 (50%)= No Z Rotation
This parameter lets you view an object from a different angle by turning the object. You can also
view an object from a different angle by changing the viewpoint in space for the composite
image, (see “Global Viewpoint Mode” on page 11-120).
Tip: Using this parameter you can turn one object around another
