OUTPUT MAPPING
The global content pane has an 'output map' panel. out1, out2, etc. correspond to the Pixlite Outputs. Various sculpture lighting components can be assigned to specific Pixlite outputs. Multiple components can be assigned to a single Pixlite output by separating the components with a comma (no spaces). For example the default configuration for output3 is bringup,bringdown which means the bottom ring up pointing floods followed by the bottom ring down pointing floods.
Shorthands: gf = ground floods b = bird topring = floods on upper ring crown = lights on the crown cg = canopy group which means both lights at a particular canopy location.
!IMPORTANT! You must pick some location as polar angle 0 and the wiring must start at that location consistently and then travel the wiring counterclockwise (when looking down from the top) around the installation. It is especially important that for groups of lights like the ground floods or a pair of canopy lights that they are wired in a counter-clockwise direction because in order to fix it you will need to make source code changes.
If you don't pick a consistent reference point across all layers of the installation then the different levels of lights might be out of position with respect to rotation around the central axis. That will cause problems for rotational sweeping effects between the various components.
In the case that something went wrong with wiring and the wiring for the various components don't start at the proper polar angle (azimuth around the sculpture) there is a 'map offsets' panel. For example, if the top floods are wired so that they don't line up with the bottom floods, you set the offset to shift the starting point for which flood LX Studio thinks is the first flood in terms of data wiring. For groups of lights like the ground floods and canopy lights, the offset is based on the set of lights. So for example, the only valid offset values for the ground floods are 0, 1, 2 since there are 3 groups of lights. For the canopy lights the only valid offsets are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 since there are 6 sets of canopy lights.
