Abstract
A file system for a stage lighting system that maintains the different files associated with the stage lighting system. Each of the files that can represent an effect are maintained within the system within a configuration file. The configuration file can be updated on each start of the system so that the system can maintain information indicative of current configuration files. A test mode can also be entered in which a pre-formed show can be tested against the current state of the configuration files.
Claims4
A system, comprising:
- a controlling console, which produces output signals indicative of desired lighting effects, said desired lighting effects including at least a shape for light to be projected, and a rotation effect for said light to be projected;
- a first lighting processing part, and a second lighting processing part, each of said lighting processing parts including a processor, and a memory storage, storing prestored lighting effects, and a video rendering part, which produces an output indicative of the prestored lighting effects based on commanded lighting effects;
- and the user interface, and user interface switch, said user interface enabling local control of either the first or second lighting part, based on position of the switch, and enabling local display of the first or second lighting part, based on position of the switch.
