Effect Mode parameter DMX value = 134 (Standard) or DMX value = 141 (Enhanced).

NOTE: The Standard Collage Generator option should only be used with legacy shows. The Enhanced Collage Generator option’s higher resolution for arrays provides the best output.

The DL2 Standard Collage Generator enables multiple DL2 units to create virtually seamless panoramic media projections controlled from a DMX console. You can display either stock or custom content. For more information about this global effect option, see Chapter 12: Global Functions: Collage Generator™ Effect on page 123.

The Enhanced Collage Generator option (DMX = 141) provides cleaner images and better edge blending.

Modifier 1: Selects which type of collage array to use from DMX Values 1-63. A DMX value of 0 = No collage. DMX Values of 64-255 are reserved and default to No collage.

Modifier 2: Selects which portion of the grid a particular DL2 will display. DMX values 0-63 step through grid pattern selected by the Modifier 1 parameter. DMX values 64-255 default to the upper left corner of the grid.

Modifier 3: Adjusts edge blending between the selected portion of the image being projected by the fixture and adjacent portions being projected by other fixtures.
