Figure 96: Dimmer Patching Window
The “Dimmer Patch” window is broken into three sections.
♦ Channel View – On the left of the window, this allows you
to see all of the 2000 channels and how they are
currently patched.
♦ Dimmer View – At the top right is the dimmer view,
containing all of the available dimmers
♦ Fixture List – At the bottom right is the fixture list,
containing all the different fixtures that can be patched
into channels.
When LightFactory is started for the first time or when the current
show is cleared, all channels will be patched 1 to 1 with available
dimmers.
