+ | **Adding the fixtures in Freestyler.**\\ | ||
+ | The key word combined fixtures is adding the correct number of fixtures and set the right addresses for them.\\ | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | **Add Fixtures on adjacent addresses.**\\ | ||
+ | Adding fixtures on adjacent channels is just adding them one by one and freestyler automatically gives the next addresses.\\ | ||
+ | I the fixtures are different from each other then remember to add them in the right order.\\ | ||
+ | It could be that the first block is a common block.\\ | ||

- | + | **Add fixtures on same addresses.**\\ | |
+ | The order of adding the fixture is not critical because all fixtures covers all channels for the unit.\\ | ||
+ | To add fixtures on the same address the “auto address” are to be disabled.\\ | ||

+ | \\ | ||
+ | The 3 fixtures are 3 different fixtures each controlling mirror, color and strobe for one of the 3 scanners in the unit. The last number 3, 4 and 5 is the fixture number Freestyler adds.\\ | ||
+ | The fixture could also have been made with different images on. It could have been a large 1, 2 and 3 in the image.\\ | ||
