Index and Rotation
The gobo wheels operate in two modes: INDEX Mode and ROTATE Mode. The corresponding values
are given in the DMX Map Tables below. Gobos will also behave as follows:
• Gobo wheels will only stop at whole images.
• Timed moves are only available using the Gobo Time channel (27).
• Spins are variable from DMX 217-236 for CCW fast to slow, and 237-255 for CW slow to fast.
• The Gobo Index function utilizes 16-bit control which offers enhanced resolution whether in
INDEX or ROTATE mode.
