Z Position
The Z Position parameter moves your object along the z axis with 16-bit precision.
The midpoint of the 16-bit DMX value range centers the object on the z-axis. Values below the
DMX midpoint move the object away from the viewer and appears to become smaller, and
object above the DMX midpoint move the object toward the viewer and appears to become
larger.
Default DMX Value: 32768 (50%) = object centered in frame
Tip: This parameter can create a zoom effect. Remember that by moving an object, you can
obscure other objects or move it behind your viewpoint where it is no longer visible.
