| For instance Channel 3, gobo 2, it is the one named “MOVEMENT 1”, has the value range 8 to 38. The is made with a range, because some controller only have faders to control the fixture and this makes it difficult to set a precise value.\\ | For instance Channel 3, gobo 2, it is the one named “MOVEMENT 1”, has the value range 8 to 38.

| - | Here (23+38)/2 = 23 brings the gobo wheel to the middle.\\ | + | Example: |
| \\ | \\ | ||
| The reason for selecting the middle value is that, if it is a wheel then the min and max value may bring the wheel in a position where gobo is not centered totally. The value between 2 gobos may bring the wheel in a position so two half gobos can be seen and this is normally to be avoided.\\ | The reason for selecting the middle value is that, if it is a wheel then the min and max value may bring the wheel in a position where gobo is not centered totally.
