Selecting and arranging your lights

Click the EDIT tab towards the top left to access the edit screen. The edit screen is where all

programming is made.

Each lighting ﬁxture in myDMX 3.0 is represented by a square in the ﬁxtures window (bottom right

section of the software). Multi-beam lights such as LED bars will be formed of several squares. Click and

drag the squares to position. Lights can also be rearranged into common shapes using the shape wizard

(1). Depending on how many ﬁxtures you have patched, you can zoom in and out and reset the

positioning using the 4 icons in the upper left (2). For quick selection, groups can be created by selecting

some ﬁxtures and clicking the 'Create Group' button (3).

Controlling your lights with the faders

To select a ﬁxture, click one of the squares in the ﬁxture window on the right, and then move the

corresponding faders on the left. The lights will change in real-time. There are several ways to view the

output:

See the actual lighting ﬁxture respond in real-time

See the color and beam state in the ﬁxture window

See the raw DMX data being sent in the DMX output window (Tools -> DMX levels)

See a 3D representation of your light in the 3D visualizer* (Tools -> 3D visualizer)

*Available as an upgrade (Additional Charge)

With some ﬁxtures, you'll need to move several faders before seeing a light beam. In the example below,

the dimmer, iris and zoom channels all need to be set. This can be done quickly by clicking the 'Beam On'

button (1). You can also quickly position your ﬁxtures in the center by pressed the 'Center' button (2).
