3. Patching
We have to patch fixtures to tell the controller what kinds of fixtures need to be controlled.
When patching, the controller offers a free initial DMX address automatically for each line. We can patch all fixtures
first then check over their DMX addresses before assigning on the fixtures. We may also assign the wanted DMX
addresses on fixtures first then set the right addresses when patching.
If the fixtures are RDM equipped, the controller can help the fixtures to change the setting of DMX address and
channel mode.
3.1. Patching Fixtures
To control the dimmer channels or intelligent fixtures, you should patch each of them to the unit keys in ‘Fixtures’
window. A maximum 1000 fixtures can be patched.
3.1.1. Patch Dimmers
Each unit key can control single or multiple dimmer channels.
1> Press Patch;
2> Press [Patch New Fixture];
3> Press [Patch Dimmer].
4> Press [▼]on ‘Start DMX Address’ option can find out other DMX lines (from 1 to 4). The number behind
shows the initial free address can be patched; you can entry a new number by numeric keypad or use the Wheel
D to change;
5> The option ‘Unit start number’ shows the initial unit ID to be patched;
6> We can enter a value on the column of ‘Quantity’ to set the patching quantity. Enter 1 means to patch a
single dimmer channel on a unit ID; while value more than 1 means to patch a sequence of dimmer channels on
a sequence unit ID. The range of dimmers will be patched to sequential DMX addresses;
7> Press [Confirm] to patch, the list of ‘Patch selected fixture’ will be updated;
8> You can also patch multiple dimmer channels on a same unit ID. For example, after we patched one dimmer
channel on a unit ID, the field of ‘Unit start number’ will display in Green. The DMX address will increase one
after patched. If we press [Confirm] again, the new DMX address will be patched onto the same unit ID. Those
dimmer channels had been patched on the same unit will be controlled together;
3.1.2. Patch Intelligent Fixtures
There is a slight difference between patching intelligent fixtures and dimmer channels. This is because intelligent
fixtures may have more attributes to control such as pan, tilt, color, or gobos; while dimmer channels only have one
attribute, which is intensity. To control intelligent fixtures, you need to select its fixture profile from your fixture
library.
Victory3_en.pdf http://en.codelight.com.cn

The console offers two types of fixture libraries to choose from,
System fixture: the controller has its own fixtures in system library;
User fixture: if you cannot find out your fixture in system library, the controller offers you multi-way to
create or edit your fixture. (We will introduce you how to create or edit the user fixture on other chapter)
1> Press Patch;
2> Press [Patch New Fixture];
3> Press [Used Library = System] can switch to [Used Library = User];
When patching system fixture you can use the Wheel D or scroll bar to search the manufacture; or you can
recall the soft-keyboard by Keyboard and input the first letter of manufacturer name to search. Select the
manufacturer and [Confirm] to enter; you can select the fixture from the list.
You can select the fixture directly on touch screen if patch from user library list.
Note: The channels details will be listed on the right bar after a fixture is selected.
4> Select the fixture about to be patched and select [Confirm] to call out the patching menu;
5> Press [▼]on ‘Start DMX Address’ for other DMX lines (from 1 to 4). And enter the number by numeric
keypad or use Wheel D to set the start address;
6> Set the unit ID on ‘Unit start number’;
7> Enter the quantity number would like to patch on the column of ‘Quantity’;
8> Press [Confirm] to patch, the list of ‘Patch selected fixture’ will be updated;
If the field is shown in RED when you set the ‘Start DMX address’ or ‘Unit start number’
during patching, it means the number of the DMX address or unit ID has been used. It will not
allow you to continue patching on.
If the option ‘Load Preset’ is selected, the controller will help to load in the presets which had
written in the fixture profile automatically.
If the option ‘Auto Group’ is selected, the controller will help to group up all same model
fixtures.

4. Controlling Fixtures and Dimmers
We will find the patched fixtures in the ‘Fixtures’ window. If the
‘Load Preset’ and ‘Auto Group’ options are selected during
patching, the corresponding option windows will be attached
with the data.
The patched fixtures show in dark blue, while selected ones are
shown in pale blue, and those fixtures that have been selected
are shown in gray.
Attributes of the fixtures are set by the control wheels and the
channel names are shown on the bottom of the screen.
If a fixture has multiple cells of control and its personality supports it, you can
select and control the fixture either as a whole or as independent cells. This is
particularly useful when using Shapes.
The patched sub fixtures occupy multiple consecutive fixture grids on the
‘Fixtures’ window. It will be shown as a master unit ID and its series cell IDs.
4.1. Setup Fixture Layout
All patched fixtures will be listed in the ‘Fixtures’ window, but we can also find them from the ‘Fixture Layout’
window.
The ‘Fixture Layout’ window offers 7 display areas, the area ‘All Fixtures’ and the areas 1 to 6. Areas 1 to 6 do not
display any fixtures by default.
Select [All Fixtures] and set it to another area (Any of area 1 to 6);
Select [Edit] and select the fixtures to be displayed on the area;
Press [Add Selected] to display the selected fixtures, or [Remove Selected] to remove the selected
fixtures; Press the small frame on left top corner can help to select/unselect all fixtures.
