DMX lights

Post by Simon111 »

i understand how arena 5 can control DMX fixtures but was wondering about moving fixtures. can you control moving fixtures. from what ive found it cant move the fixtures rather it converts and transmits rgb values to dmx. how would you move the fixtures? a moving head light is no good just changing colour
I use vista and want to keep that as the lighting controller.
is there a way to arena 5 can tell vista what colours to change lights too and when and let vista control everything.

Directly controlling moving lights is not natively supported in Arena 5. If you'd like to have more options for that type of control, feel free to weigh in with your opinion: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=12484&p=51286

If you are using Vista as a controller anyway, you can just program dummy channels in your fixture and use LTP or HTP to merge the values on the desk.
