+====== Panel Description - Fanning ======
+\\
+Fanning is as an oriental ribbon fan spreading out the beams for more fixtures.\\
+\\
+{{:images:panel_description_fanning_fan.jpg|}}\\
+\\
+This means that the buttons in this part of the movement panel only have effect when more fixtures are selected and not on one alone.\\
+\\
+{{:images:panel_description_fanning_moving_panel.gif|}}\\
+\\
+When more fixtures are placed next to each other the beams may be one big spot because all beams are parallel.\\
+By using fanning it is possible to spread out the beams as shown bellow.\\
+\\
+\\
+Parallel beams.\\
+{{:images:panel_description_fanning_parallel.gif|}}\\
+\\
+\\
+Spread beams\\
+{{:images:panel_description_fanning_pan.gif|}}\\
+\\
+Here the settings is “First” = -10% (First is defined as left Fixture), “Last” = 10% (Last is defined as right fixture), “Pan Fan” or “Set Fan”\\
+\\
+\\
+{{:images:panel_description_fanning_pantilt.gif|}}\\
+\\
+The same can be done with the Tilt.\\
+\\
+\\
+\\
+Additional center of the fan can be moved with the “Center” slider.\\
+By adjusting the center of the fan then the spread is different from one side to an other.\\
+\\
+\\
+{{:images:panel_description_fanning_center_01.gif|}}\\
+\\
+Here the settings are “First” = -15%, “Last” = 5% and “Center” = -5%.\\
+The spread will then be -15, -10, -5, 0 and 5%\\
+\\
+\\
+\\
+**Center Offset.**\\
+The parameters above is related to the beams pointing direction and in the figures the fixture is placed with the same spacing.\\
+If the fixture is placed with unequal distance then “Center Offset” are to be used.\\
+Center “Offset” may be a inproper word because when the Center fixture is exactly in the middle the offset is 50% meaning that it is actually describing the Center fixture placement.\\
+Bellow are two example with Center offset. The optimal use are to be tested in practice.\\
+\\
+\\
+{{:images:panel_description_fanning_center_offset_02.gif|}}\\
+\\
+In this figure the “Center Offset” is 25% meaning that fixture no. 2 from left is center.\\
+\\
+The left fixture is 0 and the right fixture is 100%\\
+In this figure the distance between the fixtures is 1,1,2,1. The total distance is therefore 4.\\
+So the fixture is placed in the following distance.\\
+Fixture 1: 0%\\
+Fixture 2, Center: (100/4)*1 = 25%\\
+Fixture 3: (100/4)*(1+1) = 50%\\
+Fixture 4: (100/5)*(1+1+1) = 75%\\
+Fixture 5: 100%\\
+\\
+And the First = -10%, Last = 10% and Center = 0%\\
+\\
+\\
+\\
+{{:images:panel_description_fanning_center_offset_01.gif|}}\\
+\\
+In this figure the “Center Offset” is 40%. Here fixture no. 3 from left is the center but there is a spacing between the center fixture and the next.\\
+\\
+The left fixture is 0 and the right fixture is 100%\\
+In this figure the distance between the fixtures is 1,1,2,1. The total distance is therefore 5.\\
+So the fixture is placed in the following distance.\\
+Fixture 1: 0%\\
+Fixture 2: (100/5)*1 = 20%\\
+Fixture 3, center: (100/5)*(1+1) = 40%\\
+Fixture 4: (100/5)*(1+1+2) = 80%\\
+Fixture 5: 100%\\
+\\
+And the First = -10%, Last = 10% and Center = 0%\\
+\\
+\\
+\\
+\\
+**Note:**\\
+To get the optimum performance it is important to set this offset else the beams will not track when they are moved to the outer values.\\
+\\
+\\
+\\
+**Additional Fan control.**\\
+The whole fan can additional be moved with the arrow control. This will not increase / decrease the fan size but just move whole fan in the arrow direction. \\
+\\
+By pressing the “Center” icon in the arrow matrix or the XYcoordinate the fanning is reset.\\
