      For our MagicDMX USB-DMX Interfaces these are plug and play, no driver installation required.

    On the MagicQ Magic (Not basic) dongle, is there any Limitations besides it saying Demo Mode? Can you save shows normally and is there no time Limit as in Basic?

    • @ChamSysLtd
      @ChamSysLtd  Год назад

      There is no limitation in the output time, though being in demo mode restricts a few features for example: Chapter 3.7 here lists what these are: secure.chamsys.co.uk/help/documentation/magicq/pc.html

    If I purchase a 6 universe console from chamsys can I output all 6 universe's out of ArtNet/Scacn and opt to not use the standard DMX outputs from the back?

    • @ChamSysLtd
      @ChamSysLtd  Год назад +1

      Absolutely - all universes can be sent via Artnet/sACN instead of any direct dmx ports.

      You can indeed - in fact 64 universes fully enabled for output via Artnet.

    • @ChamSysLtd
      @ChamSysLtd  2 месяца назад +1

      Only 1 MagicDMX is supported per system. For further output an Art-net/sACN node should be used.

      Yes, long as its running full windows is fine (not S mode). Using touch screen will work with MagicQ no problem.

    Hello. How can I record layout on some key on MQ500M console? I know It can be assigned under exec buttons, but can I record layout under F1, F2, F3 buttons?

    • @ChamSysLtd
      @ChamSysLtd  2 года назад

      Yes you can. In the Macro window, create a macro using 'inbuilt macro's' for layout 1,2,3, then assign these macro's to the F1, F2 and F3 keys.

    I started programming on my console, can I transfer that file over to the PC software to continue programming?

    • @ChamSysLtd
      @ChamSysLtd  2 года назад

      Absolutely - on the console connect USB Drive, under Setup > View Settings, press 'backup to USB' to store the show file on your USB drive.
      Then connect the USB drive to your PC. Run MagicQ PC, under the top left 'file' menu, select 'open show folder' and copy the show file from your USB to this folder. You can then use 'load show' in the setup window to load your show file.

    This is beginning from way too advanced of a position.
    I’ve owned other lights for 15 years and used DMX but this is a whole extra level, and doesn’t really give a good starting reference

      We are working on an Intro to Lighting series, which explains some of the basic terminology and process uses and hope to have this available soon.
