Cloning User Content

Cloning is a file transfer operation where all the User Content of a single fixture is replicated across one or more other fixtures. Cloning preserves all user content naming and DMX values. This allows you, for example, to send the custom content for a specific show to all the fixtures used in that show with one operation.

To clone user content:

1.In the Management Client Window select All Server in the left pane.

2.Select the Server with the content you want to clone in the right pane.

3.Select Clone Content from the Media Files or 3D Objects drop down menu or the right click popup list. A Clone Content Wizard lets you select one or more servers on the fixture network as the destination for the cloned content.

The cloning process erases all destination server(s) user content and replaces it with the selected server’s user content. Stock content is unaffected.
