control channel), use the Extended GM Control settings to extend Grand master control to other

control channels than the default intensity control channel.

(Ext GM = Extended GM control)

(Def Int = Default Intensity control channel)

Note that it is only possible to define 'standard GM behaviour' to other channels than the dedicated

intensity channel, standard means that the DMX output value is 'scaled' by the GM/sub master value,

and that GM settings for the dedicated intensity control channel always overrides extended GM

control settings for the same control channel. The ability to extend GM control to other channels than

the dedicated intensity control channel is only available from LightJockey version 2.6 build 7. Older

versions of LightJockey will ignore the extended GM control if included in the profile data.

Default DMX Values

Normally LightJockey assumes 0 as default DMX output value for all controls channels for a newly

configured fixture. However some fixtures may exhibit unwanted side effects when receiving 0 on a

control channel (such as shutting off a discharge lamp). In this case make sure to specify a suitable

default DMX value for critical control channels. The specified values are applied to the current default

DMX output values when the profile data is applied and stored with the profile definition when saved.

The levels tab

The levels tab implements up to 32 generic 8 bit level controls as virtual faders. These may be used to

define any dynamic functions that is cannot be defined in the normal function context or takes up too

many control channels to fit inside the profile (e.g. barn-doors or extra color or gobo functions).
