adammarkus Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Hello all, I was wondering if there is a way to set custom fixture speed in Vision? I have loaded in some fixtures I've used IRL previously, but I see the Pan/Tilt & Zoom/Iris controls are reflected much slower in Vision than in real life. I was wondering if there is any way to change that speed in Vision? Thank you in advance! Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee bbudzon Posted November 15, 2022 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted November 15, 2022 The fixture speed is hard coded in the content and should be accurate. If it is not, I would like to see a bug opened to address the issue. That being said, some fixtures support an MSpeed that is controlled via DMX. I could be wrong, but I always thought this MSpeed to stand for Motor Speed. You can send various DMX values to the MSpeed channel of the fixture and it will increase/decrease the motor speed accordingly. For example, the Robe Wash 250 XT in Mode 1 has a "Speed of PAN/TILT movement" on Channel 5; where 0 is max speed and 249 is min speed. I hope this helps! And if you've found fixtures which do not support the MSpeed or just generally do not pan/tilt/zoom/iris at the proper speeds, contact Technical Support and let them know the make/models and we can have our content team investigate the values that are being used.
