Equipment Type
The Equipment Type selection provides information about a station and
determines the icon displayed with the station. The list of available equipment
types for selection is determined here.
To add a new Equipment Type, click the Add New button to clear the
Equipment Type and Description boxes at the top of the window. Click in the
Equipment Type box and type in the name of Equipment (e.g. Color Scroller).
Use the Browse button to point to the icon you wish to be associated with that
Equipment Type. Icons are normally found in Program Files\QConnect\Icons.
To modify an existing Equipment Type, click on it in the Equipment Type table
to highlight it, then click on the Equipment Type box to edit. The regular text
editing conventions of Windows 95 apply, including the right-click editing tools.
When your editing is complete, click the Update button or use the [Enter] key
to complete the modification to the Equipment Type table. Use the Browse
button to point to the icon you wish to have associated with each Equipment
Type. Icons are normally found in Program Files\QConnect\Icons.
To delete any existing Equipment Type, click on the desired Equipment Type in
the table. While it is highlighted, click the Delete button. A message to
confirm your decision will appear. Click Yes to confirm.
You can edit existing icons or add new icons to your icon library. Icons are
standard .ico files and can be created and modified with a number of
shareware utilities.
Universe
DMX Universes need to be set up properly to take full advantage of the
optional DMX address calculation features in DMXQConnect.
There are two tabs, Show Specific and Defaults. The values entered on the
Defaults tab will be used unless there are values in Show Specific. Show
Specific will supersede the Default values.
The Universe # refers to an actual DMX console (or control system) output
port. Universe Parameters are the number and range of DMX device codes
configured on that port. DMXQConnect uses the values entered here to
calculate the numbers displayed in the Address box of the station detail pane
at the top of the working screen. DMX Universe parameters are not essential
information for the DMXPathfinder to patch correctly, they only serve as a
utility for the user.
