Note: Because controllers cannot transmit crossfade or delay construct values, use
preset programming in the onboard menu system to manually set those
construct values at the fixture.
Show Creation with a DMX Controller
Using a DMX controller, an operator can program an unlimited number of sequences
(combinations of scenes) and retain direct control over the x.SpotXtreme fixture at
all times. The technique of programming a fixtures using a controller and then
capturing the scene(s) to the on-board memory of multiple x.SpotXtreme fixtures can
save time. For more information, see "Capture DMX to Scene" on page 3-14.

The HOG III
Lighting Console, and the HandShake™ handheld controller are the
DMX controllers available from High End Systems to control x.SpotXtreme fixtures
(see "Optional Accessories" on page 1-4). For more information on whether a DMX
controller supports x.SpotXtreme fixtures, contact the controller's vendor. For more
information on operating the fixture with a controller (or control device such as DMX
control software), consult the documentation provided with the controller.
Show Creation with Onboard Preset Menu
Fixture level DMX programming is executed in the Preset portion of fixture's
Onboard Menu system. To create scenes, modify the default scenes in the fixture
memory, see "Edit Scene ## Menu" on page 3-8. Add timing to scenes, see page 3-11.
Then combine the scenes into loops.
Creating a Loop
A loop is a series of programmed scenes that continuously plays in sequential order.
To create a loop, first create two or more contiguous scenes (see "Edit Scene ##
Menu" on page 3-8). After creating scenes, go to the next available scene and choose
the ZERO SCENE menu option to erase any programmed parameter values and mark
the end of the loop, see "Zero Scene" on page 3-13.
Note:
If all 16 available on-board scenes in a User Mode are included in a loop, the
end of the loop does not need to be marked. When preset playback is set on,
the fixture will automatically loop after playing back all programmed scenes.
Playing Back a Loop
To play back a loop, set preset playback ON for each fixture, see "Playback Mode
Menu" on page 3-8. When preset playback is on, the fixture automatically begins
playing back the first scene and continues through the loop.
Note:
Program Scene 1 to enable preset playback.
If power is removed during playback, and then reapplied, the fixture will home and
begin playback at the first scene. To stop playback, manually set playback mode to
OFF, see "Playback Mode Menu" on page 3-8.
