OPERATION : DMX512 OPERATION 3

Wheel Control

Every wheel, gobo or color, as well as the gobos within a wheel, follow the exact same method of control. Select the mode with the associated control channel: continuous [index], discrete [step], spin, random slow, medium, and fast, with strobe range at the end.

The preceding 16-bit channel sets either your choice (a gobo or color in continuous, discrete, or strobe modes, indexed position for gobos), or your rate (spin/gobo rotation). The strobe speed range at the end sets how fast your selection on the preceding 16-bit channel strobes to open. Gobo wheels, color wheels, and gobos all follow this same logic, and the same control channel ranges.

Setting the Shortest Path: All wheels take the shortest path on a full speed command (instantaneous change to a new DMX value with timing channel set to 0 or 255). If the timing channel is set to enable a timed transition, the wheel will travel the "natural" path, i.e., it will not cross over the home position. Note that many control consoles will execute a crossfade by sending a sequence of incremental DMX value changes, which will explicitly determine the path that the wheel will take.
