Image Graphics Control
You can apply a variety of color mixing options, transitions and effects to
each individual Image layer in Standard or Enhanced protocol modes.
The parameters described in this chapter are adjustable for each Image you define in Standard
or Enhanced protocol for SHOWPIX and StudioPix fixtures. Parameters for composite image
intensity and effects are described in Chapter 7: Global Control on page 45. Color Mixing control
for each image layer is found in Chapter 6: Color Control on page 35.
Defining Content
This chapter outlines how to select an media file from stock content or your own custom content
and define its playback. Use Echo software to upload custom content to your SHOWPIX or
StudioPix fixture. Echo converts, organizes, and identifies content by source (preloaded stock
content or custom User content) and DMX value. For more information on using Echo software
to view and manage content, (see Chapter 11: Echo Software on page 75).
Two parameters control content selection. To define an image you have to set DMX values
greater than 0 for the Media Folder, and Media File parameters.
Note: SHOWPIX and StudioPix fixtures contain identical Stock Content files.
There will be some variation in some media files since the LED array is
a different size for the two fixtures.
Media Folder
This parameter defines a folder (directory) containing a collection of media files. The media files
within the assigned folder can then be selected using the Media File parameter. DMX values for
folders are assigned as follows:
• DMX values = 1-40 are used or reserved for stock content
• DMX values = 41-250 are reserved for user content
• DMX values = 251-255 are reserved.
Default DMX Value = 1 (Lenses)
