4.2 Patch

Patching is a way to reassign the order of desk channels to DMX dimmer

channels, and is generally only used for controlling conventional dimmers. Led or

intelligent fixtures are best controlled by entering the fixture b

y name in the ‘DMX

Assignment’ Screen.

A new show created on XC will contain 48 dimmers by default. To change this to

match your particular system, see section Error! Reference source not found.

regarding DMX Assignment.

Note: Using groups of conventional channels can be an easy and flexible

alternative to creating a patch.

The default dimmer patch is set 1 to 1, which is to say desk channels 1 through

48 are assigned to DMX dimmer channels 1 through 48. Dimmer to board

channel assignments are set in the patch screen. The XC is able to store

numerous custom patches.

All patches will be listed in the patch screen (See Figure 6). Only one patch can

be used at a time. Applying a patch makes it active, and the dimmer to channel

assignment changes at the time it is applied. Patches can be viewed by desk

Channel or by DMX Dimmer.
