Introduction

🔒 Proprietary Formats

*A proprietary file is a unique, closed data format created by the developer specifically for their console. It fully incorporates the internal logic of the desk, its built-in 3D visualizer, and effects engine.

• GrandMA2: .xml
• Avolites Titan: .d4
• Onyx Obsidian: .fixture (Onyx format)
• Tekmand: .xmlp
• QLC+: .qxf
• Sunlite PC Suite: .ssl2
  (Also compatible with Daslight, Lumidesk, Light Rider, MyDMX)

🌐 Universal GDTF

*GDTF (General Device Type Format) is an open global standard for describing fixtures. It was created so that lighting manufacturers could release a single universal file that is equally and correctly understood by consoles, CAD software, and 3D visualizers.

The .gdtf format is natively supported by:

• GrandMA3
• Chamsys MagicQ
• ETC EOS
• Vectorworks / Depence / Capture (for show pre-visualization)

Movement and Optics

• Pan / Tilt: Tilt and pan angles of the head, as well as maximum physical limits (e.g., 540° and 270°).
• Zoom: Minimum and maximum beam angle. Affects the width of the light spot in 3D.
• Focus: The channel responsible for the sharpness of the beam edges or projected gobo patterns.

Beam Effects

• Prism: The AI detects the presence of a prism and its facet count (3-facet, 8-facet, linear).
• Prism Rotation: Speed and direction of prism rotation, as well as exact indexing capabilities (stopping at a specific angle).
• Gobo: Recognition of static and rotating gobo wheels.

Color and Power

• Color Rendering: Precise data extraction for Color Wheels or CMY/RGBW mixing systems.
• Control: Finding service DMX values for remote Lamp On/Off and motor Reset.
• Physics: Weight, RDM support, connectors (PowerCON, DMX), and Daisy Chain limits.

Channel Logic: Snap and Fade

The neural network automatically assigns the correct behavior type to each parameter. This is critical for the console's effects (Phasers / FX Engine) to work properly:

• Snap (Instant): The transition between values happens instantly, ignoring Fade Time. Used for color and gobo wheels so the audience doesn't see intermediate colors scrolling during scene changes.
• Fade (Smooth): Smooth transition from one value to another. Used for Dimmer (intensity), Pan/Tilt movements, and CMY color mixing.

Values: Default and Highlight

Our generated fixtures already contain built-in basic behavior algorithms for comfortable and fast operator workflow:

• Default: The baseline state of the fixture (when Clear is pressed). The AI sets logical values: beam centered (Pan/Tilt 50%), dimmer closed (0%), shutter open, color and gobo in open position.
• Highlight: When the Highlight button is pressed on the console, the fixture temporarily ignores the current scene, resets color to white, removes gobos, and opens the dimmer to 100%. This allows you to instantly locate the fixture on stage.

Automatic Preset Generation

In addition to standard channels, we automatically generate and embed ready-made Presets directly into the fixture library, even if they were not explicitly stated in the manual. This heavily speeds up show programming:

• Pan / Tilt: The AI calculates the center position and creates ready-to-use Center, Max, and Min presets.
• Zoom: Automatically adds Narrow, Normal, and Wide presets.
• Focus: Generates Far, Normal, and Near values.

Smart Attribute Copying

Manufacturers often detail channels (colors, gobos, etc.) only in the largest DMX mode (e.g., Mode 1), leaving other modes as empty tables.

Our neural network can map data! If a color wheel is detailed in Mode 1, but Mode 2 just says 'Color', the algorithm automatically copies all attributes (color names, DMX values) from the first mode to the corresponding channels in other modes. Your fixture will have fully working effects in every DMX mode!
