- | ====== Panel Description - Fanning ====== | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | Fanning is as an orintal ribbon fan spreading out the beams for more fixtures.\\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | {{: | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | 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.\\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | {{: | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | 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.\\ | + | |
- | {{: | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | Spread beams\\ | + | |
- | {{: | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | 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”\\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | {{: | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | 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.\\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | {{: | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | 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.\\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | {{: | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | 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/ | + | |
- | Fixture 4: (100/ | + | |
- | Fixture 5: 100%\\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | And the First = -10%, Last = 10% and Center = 0%\\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | {{: | + | |
- | \\ | + | |
- | 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/ | + | |
- | Fixture 4: (100/ | + | |
- | 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.\\ | + | |
