    ETC Ion Programming Funky-ness

    @CHausman,The 1% in theory does not do anything, yet I was able to see a glow onstage, oddly enough. I guess our space is just special. And as far as the network goes, apparently there was a renovation where Cat5 and all that jazz was run. I wasn't here when it happened, and for some reason...

    ETC Ion Programming Funky-ness

    We do have a separate fader wing, but there is nothing stored on there ever. We do have a few subs recorded, but they are only the channels that control house lights. We have over 350 units in the air, and the weirdest part is that it only affects the intensity. Even our Moving Lights! I believe...

For some reason, today, we've started noticing that a rather large and inconsistent range of channels are being given a value of 1. Now, I...

    Our usual solution is to Pipe out from our Cats and mount the Motor to a 2x4 which then gets ratchet-strapped to the pipe.

    Martin Magnum 2000 Remote Part number

    It is a simple button, that you must hold down. It looks nearly identical to the buttons on the Expression 2x, although it is black, and without the LED.Thank you.

    Martin Magnum 2000 Remote Part number

    Hello all, I have a Martin Magnum 2000 Hazer (ironic, no?). And I am missing the button for the Smoke feature on the Remote. The remote plugs to the hazer via XLR. I have looked all over the internet for the part or something related, and no luck. Does anyone by chance have the part...

    Automated Fixtures MAC 500 DMX termination/wheel hall sensor

    I can tell you with 100% confidence that they do not require termination. At least on their own, or with only MAC units in line. This may change with color scrollers, gobo rotators, etc.Good Luck!

    VectorWorks Symbols

    I'm with Steve on this one. Creating your own symbols is not only faster and less of a headache than tracking down a symbol, but it will ultimately give you a better understanding of Vectorworks for design purposes.Some manufacturers will provide VW symbols, upon request. I currently have a...

    1:1 patch: Do you use it?

    I usually just group my lights by channel number, and then create scenes in my subs, just adusting the channel numbers as I go. Therefore: Zone Patch. However, the reason I group my channels toegether based on their area even though they are zone patched, is so it is easier to find. Plus...

    Homemade DMX Tester

    Ok, I've made both 3-pin and 5-pin versions of these DMX Testers that are only testers and not testers/terminators. They are only good for testing if they is any signal coming through. Per tester I used (1) 270 ohm resister 1/2watt, 1 bi color LED (red/green), and some heat shrink-tubing and a...
