Using The Software 112

MADRIX will transform the signal for your DVI controller according to your Patch configuration.

While the DVI fixtures represent your LED installation in MADRIX and its Preview Windows, so-

called DVI Maps represent how the controller should receive the signal. As shown above, DVI

fixture and DVI map often are two different things if you add rotation, flipping, or spacing. That is

why in MADRIX you will have to configure both DVI fixture and DVI map separately. The DVI Patch

provides a normal view and a view called "DVI Map Mode", which makes it possible to configure

both.

Basic Workflow (Step By Step)

In order to work with DVI fixtures, please follow the instructions below:

Step 1) Position your DVI fixtures in the workspace of the Patch according to your LED

installation.

Step 2) Set the size of your virtual matrix. (It normally includes all of your DVI fixtures.)

Step 3) Activate the DVI Map Mode (Ctrl+M) in the Patch.

Step 4) Position the DVI Map of every DVI fixture according to the requirements of your DVI

hardware controller. (The first DVI Map normally starts at position x:1, y:1.)

Step 5) Activate the DVI Map Mode of the external DVI Output window(s).

Step 1 and 2 are explained in more detail in the chapter Patch.

Step 3, 4, and 5 will be explained below.
