OVERVIEW

Throughout the development of Colour-Tramp we have attempted

to provide a user interface that will be familiar to lighting people

but also add the elegance of the Windows interface.

The intention behind Colour-Tramp is to use the power of the PC to

add flexibility to the control concepts used and proved by the last

generation of conventional lighting consoles.

Colour-Tramp has found many applications within the lighting

industry. Anywhere that you do not want a control room cluttered

by a huge console full of mechanical faders is the perfect place for

Colour-Tramp

To check for future software releases, go to:

PHYSICAL

OUTPUT

Colour-Tramp is a sophisticated PC based lighting console that is

optimised for two and three dimensional arrays of colour changing

lamps. The output is Art-Net via the PC network card. Conversion to

DMX512 / RDM, three output devices are available:

1. Ether-Lynx (4 x DMX out of which two are RDM capable)

2.Net-Lynx O/P (2 x DMX / RDM outputs)

3.Down-Lynx O/P (2 x DMX / RDM outputs)

ART-NET

Art-Net is a new standard in Ethernet communication. The protocol

is a public domain standard that is supported by a number of

vendors including ADB, Avab Transtechnic, Avolites, Barco,

Cameleon, Compulite, Doug Fleenor Design, Electronics Diversified,

Flying Pig, Goddard Design Co, Green Hippo, High End Systems,

Horizon, IES, I-Light Group, Jands Electronics Pty, LewLight, MA

Ltd, VNR, Zero 88 and Artistic Licence.


INSTALLATION

Colour-Tramp is a 32 bit application specifically designed to

operate with Windows XP. Whilst it will operate on Windows 98,

Windows ME, Windows NTv4 and Windows 2000, we advise that

Windows XP be used to run actual shows..

The minimum specification PC is:

Processor: Pentium

Speed: 133MHz

RAM: 512MB

Operating System : Windows 95 / 98 / ME / 2K / XP

Graphics: 1024 x 768 8 bit Colour

A significant improvement in performance will be seen with the

following specification:

Processor: Pentium

Speed 2.4GHz

RAM 2GB

Operating System: Windows XP

Graphics 1280 x 1024 32 bit Colour

Windows 2000, NT

& XP Users

The Windows 2000, Windows NT and Windows XP operating

systems provide the concept of User Rights. This allows different

users to be granted different access rights to the computer.

The highest level of access rights is called ‘Administrator’.

Colour-Tramp will NOT install correctly unless you are logged onto

the computer with Administrator rights.

If your computer is part of a network, you must ask your system

administrator to set the computer for Administrator rights.

If you are a single user, the following sequence shows how to

change the settings:


Administrator

Rights

Administrator rights are

set in the Windows Users

& Passwords section:

To access this, select the

Start Menu – Settings –

Control Panel menu.

In the Control Panel,

double click on the Users &

Passwords icon. The

following dialogue will be

displayed:

Select the user who will

install Colour-Tramp. In

this example it is Benoit.

Then press the Properties

button.

The following dialogue will

then be displayed:

Select the ‘Other’

checkbox.

Select ‘Administrators’

from the pull down list.

Press OK. You should now

restart Windows and then

log on as the user name

that you have edited.


Software

Installation

Colour-Tramp is supplied on CD. To install use the following

procedure:

If you are upgrading, first uninstall the existing copy of Colour-

Tramp and DMX-Workshop.

Shutdown any applications running on your computer

Insert the CD in drive.

Wait for CD to start, then select ‘Enter CD’.

Select the ‘Software’ button.

Select the ‘Colour-Tramp’ button.

Install Shield will then guide you through the remainder of the

procedure.

When the installation completes, return to the CD menu and

install DMX-Workshop.

Now follow the registration procedure.

If you are installing an upgrade, we recommend that you backup all

Colour-Tramp Data first.

The installation procedure is identical for installation of the

demonstration version and the licensed version.


Software

Registration

If you have purchased the licensed version, plug the security

device into a free USB socket. After a short delay, the ‘Found

New Hardware’ dialogue will be displayed by Windows. All drivers

were installed with Colour-Tramp, so simply press the ‘NEXT’

button to accept all the default values. When it appears, press

the ‘FINISH’ button.

The number of available output DMX512 channels is set by the

USB security device. This number will be displayed in the status

bar when Colour-Tramp starts.

CONFIGURATION

Before starting to use the system you will need to configure your

chosen hardware. The process is very simple and is described

below.

Art-Net

To use Colour-Tramp with an Art-Net device, such as Ether-

Lynx, Down-Lynx or Net-Lynx O/P, you must configure the PC

Ethernet card. It is necessary to set two parameters, the IP

address and the Subnet Mask.

These settings are adjusted in the

Windows Network Settings

Dialogue. To access this, select the

Start Menu – Settings – Control

Panel menu.

In the Control Panel, double click on

the Network Icon. The following

dialogue will be displayed:

Select the TCP/IP protocol line and then press the properties

button.

The following dialogue will then be

displayed:

Select the radio button marked

‘Specify an IP Address’.

Type the number 2.0.0.1 into the

first box.

Type the number 255.0.0.0 into the


second box.

The display should be as follows:

Select the DNS Tab and click on

disable DNS.

Press the OK button but do not restart

the computer yet.

Double click on the ‘WSP

Client’ icon in control

panel.

Un-tick both boxes.

Press OK.

Now restart the

computer.

When using the Art-Net output, ensure that your network is not

connected to the Internet.


T H E C O N C E P T S

OVERVIEW

This section is intended for those users who prefer to just ‘dig in’

to the software, and only pick up the manual for reference!

The following description provides the information necessary to

build a basic show and discusses some of the more important

concepts.

When first started, Colour-Tramp presents a large area called the

workspace. This represents the stage or building that you plan to

light.

Each cell shown in the workspace represents an RGB lamp.

BUILDING A

SHOW

There are five distinct tasks involved in building a lighting show

with Colour-Tramp:

Layout the Workspace

Patch the Lamps

Configure the Outputs

Program the Sequences

Playback the Show


LAYOUT THE

WORKSPACE

This task assigns the visual cells of the Workspace such that they

form a geographical representation of the lighting array.

The accuracy with which this information is entered will largely

control the ease of show programming. More time spent on this

process will make all the other tasks simpler. This is particularly

true if you intend to use any of the graphic or video rendering

tools.

For the purposes of this example, we will light a 4 by 4 array of 16

lamps.

Layout starts with the Layout Wizard. This tool allows you to enter

symmetric grids of lamps. The Layout Wizard is accessed from the

Layout menu.

Layout Wizard

In this example we would like a 4 x 4 array of lamps. Programming is

simplified when gaps exist between each cell. Between the rows or

columns there will be 3 gaps, plus 2 gutters on either side.

The number of rows is calculated using:

Row Count = Required Lamp Rows + Gutters + Gaps

In our example this is:

Row Count = 4 + 3 + 2 = 9

The same is true for columns. A value of 9 is therefore entered in

this page of the wizard.


The preview area on the right of the wizard shows the results thus

far.

We will enter two different row heights. The first height will be

for the gutters and gaps. The second height will be for the lamps.

In this example, we have arbitrarily used 4 & 24. These numbers

are in pixels. In a real application, you must ensure that the

relationship between the different heights match the actual lamp

size and placement.

We then follow the same logic for column width:

Note that the lamps are shown as green in the preview area. The

layout is taking shape, but we currently have lamps shown in all our

gap and gutter positions.

TIP


The next two pages of the wizard set the relationship between

lamps and gaps.

The Next & Back buttons can be used at any time during the

wizard. This allows experimentation with the way that each page

interacts with the others. If the wizard is cancelled, any settings

entered will be retained.

The layout is now very close although our lamps are showing as gaps

and visa versa.

TIP


The next page of the wizard is not required in this example.

Ticking the Invert button resolves the problem.

Press the Finish button to complete the wizard.


After adjusting the zoom controls, the Workspace looks as follows.

Each cell represents a lamp.

PATCH THE

LAMPS

The next task is to assign patch addresses to the cells. This allows

the cell to control the actual lamp.

Right clicking on a cell produces a popup menu. From this, select

Fixture Patch. The following dialogue is displayed:

Two fields of this dialogue

are required; ‘DMX Start

Address’ and ‘DMX-Pipe’.

It is also sensible to enter

the ‘Cell / Fixture Name’ as

this is used by all of the

reporting functions.

The DMX Start Address is

a number in the range 1 to

512. It is the number that

is set on the actual lamp.

The DMX-Pipe is a group of 512 channels. It is analogous to a

DMX512 Universe.


In Colour-Tramp, the terms DMX-Pipe and DMX-Universe have

subtly different meanings. The Pipe is internal to Colour-Tramp. The

Universe represents the Art-Net Universe to which the Pipe is

output. The Preferences dialogue is used to define the relationship

between Pipes and Universes. Pipes number from 1 to 16. Universes

number from 000 to 255. We will return to this subject in a

moment.

In our example, we will set all DMX-Pipes to ‘1’. The first cell will

have a DMX Start Address of ‘1’. Each cell requires three channels

for red, green and blue, so each consecutive start address

increases by three. The Start Addresses will be 1 ,4 ,7 ,10 etc.

CONFIGURE

THE OUTPUTS

This task assigns the relationship between Pipes and Universes (see

above for discussion of these terms).

This is achieved in the Preferences dialogue, which is displayed via

the Tools menu.

Click on the ‘+’ symbol

next to Outputs. The list

of all sixteen Pipe

assignments is then

displayed. Please note

that the number of these

that are active is

dependent upon the channel size of the purchased version. For

example: The Colour-Tramp 1024 system enables only the first two

entries.

In our example, we will accept the default assignment that Pipe 1

outputs to Universe 0.

Ensure that you do not unintentionally duplicate Universe numbers.

If two Pipes are configured to output on the same Universe, the

data will be merged by the network.

Now is a good time to save the show file to disc!

TIP


PROGRAM THE

SEQUENCES

We have now configured the system and are ready to start

programming. At the simplest level this consists of selecting cells

and setting their colour.

To start, display the Colour Picker and Stores palettes by pressing

the tool bar buttons shown.

Now drag the cursor over the first column of cells and then click on

a colour (red) in the Colour Picker. This process first selects the

cells and then assigns them the colour red. The screen should now

look as follows:


We will use this as the first step of a sequence. Click on the ‘+’

symbol next to Page 1 and then click on ‘Play 1’. Now press the

Record button.

This process had had three effects:

Created a new Sequence: Seq1.

Assigned ‘Seq1’ to the first playback of ‘Page 1’.

Recorded the Workspace to the first step of the new

sequence.

Programming the remainder of the sequence proceeds as follows:

Change the colour of the red cells by clicking on yellow in

the Colour Picker.

Select the next column by dragging the mouse over the

cells.

Change the new selection to red by clicking on the Colour-

Picker.

Record the step by pressing Record.

The results are shown below:


PLAYBACK THE

SHOW

Playback is controlled by the Playback Panel as shown below:

The Playback Panel contains three Submasters, each of which can

playback a Sequence. The Playback Pages control the order in which

Sequences are assigned to Submasters.

Select the ‘Output’ tab on the Workspace control at the bottom of

the screen. The screen will now show the actual output that is being

transmitted to the lamps. Press the ‘In’ button for Submaster 1 to

start playback.

OVERVIEW

Cell selection operates in one of two modes:

Paint with colour.

Select and Choose Colour.

The decision as to which mode is used is purely subjective. The

former is best suited to users familiar with PC based paint

packages. The latter mode will be more familiar to lighting console

operators. The two modes can be used interchangeably.

PAINT WITH

COLOUR

‘Paint with Colour’ is selected using the first

button of the Selection toolbar.

In this mode, clicking on a cell immediately sets the cell colour to

the current colour. Editing proceeds by selecting a colour from the

Colour Picker and then painting it onto the cells.

SELECT AND

CHOOSE

COLOUR

Select and Choose Colour’ is selected using

the remaining four buttons of the Selection

toolbar.

In this mode, clicking on a cell selects that cell (and others

depending on the selected brush). Editing proceeds by selecting a

cell or group of cells and then choosing a colour from the Colour

Picker.

This mode is more powerful as all of the advanced editing features

are based on the concept of cell selection.


GROUP

PALETTE

BUTTON

The Groups button displays the Group-Palette.

This is used to record and select groups of

cells. Groups do not directly affect the output;

they are a programming aid.

Groups that contain a selection are displayed

with a red tick superimposed on the group icon.

Clicking on an active group will select that set

of cells in the workspace. Selected cells are

denoted by a white bounding rectangle.

The Group palette is displayed by the Palettes

toolbar:

Additional group functions are available from the right click popup

menu. These functions are summarised in the table below:

Item Description

Record to

Group

(REPLACE)

Cells that are selected in the workspace replace

the list of cells contained in this group.

Send Group to

RGB ADJUST

The RGB gamut is used to

adjust the red, green and

blue content of selected

cells.

There are two modes of

operation:

Absolute: Selected

cells are set to the

absolute value of the fader when it is moved.

Relative: The colour content of all selected cells is adjusted

when the fader is moved.

CMY ADJUST

The CMY gamut is used to

adjust the cyan, magenta

and yellow content of

selected cells.

There are two modes of

operation:

Absolute: Selected cells

are set to the absolute

value of the fader when it is moved.

Relative: The colour content of all selected cells is adjusted

when the fader is moved.


SWATCH

LIBRARY

The Swatch Library provides a selection of

Lee Filter colours. This allows colour

matching with conventional filtered lights.

Thanks to Lee Filters for permission and

James Cobb for the data entry.

PALETTE

LIBRARY

The Palette Library is the most important

of the colour selection methods. When a

palette colour is applied to a cell, the cell

stores a palette reference number rather

than an absolute colour.

This means that when the colour assigned

to a palette is changed, all cells in all

sequences will be automatically edited. This

feature is extremely useful as it allows the

structure of sequences to be built without

commiting to a decision on colour.

PALETTE

CONFIG

The Palette Library provides two popup menus that are accessed by

right clicking on the Page or Palette respectively. These functions

are summarised in the tables below:


PAGE POPUP

The commands available from the Page popup menu affect all of the

palette entries assigned to that page.

Item Description

Build Colour Page

from Workspace

This is a simple method of configuring

palettes at the start of programming. Use

any of the gamuts to set cells in the

workspace to your preferred set of

working colour.

The procedure is adjusted by three tick

boxes:

Include colours that exist in other

palettes. When ticked, all the colours in

the Workspace will be included in the

palette. When unticked, any colours

that already exist in other palettes will

be ignored.

Make palette entry for black. When

ticked, black is considered to be a

colour. When unticked, black is ignored.

Convert workspace to palettes. When

ticked, the workspace absolute colours

are replaced with the new palette

colours. There is no apparent change in

the workspace. This function is relevant

if you intend to record the workspace

in a Sequence.


Create Colour Fade

This command is used to create a graded

range of colour tints and shades.

Copy Page to … Not implemented in the current software

version.

Edit Page Name This function is used to change the Page

name.


PALETTE POPUP

The commands available from the Palette popup menu affect only

the selected palette.

Item Description

Set Colour to

Current Selection

This sets the palette entry to the current

colour selection (which is displayed in the

bottom right corner of the application).

Edit Colour This allows the standard Windows colour

selection dialogue to set the palette colour.

Edit Palette Name This function is used to change the Palette

name.


Item Description

Edit Palette This function displays a dialogue that

allows the palette name and colour to be

edited. The default values of the first

twenty palettes are set to coincide with

the default values of the lamp library. For

this reason, the colour setting of the first

twenty palettes should not normally be

modified unless the user plans to generate

custom lamp libraries.

The following dialogue is displayed:

The numeric value shown is the decimal

representation of the selected colour.

The select colour button displays a colour

selection dialogue:

Delete Palette The Delete Palette function clears the

palette name to the default value and

clears all information in the palette.


S T O R E S

OVERVIEW

Colour-Tramp uses a

WYSIWYG system of

recording. Whatever you see in

the workspace is recorded.

The Stores Palette is key to

the recording process.

Click on the tool bar entry for

Stores in order to display the

palette.

The following table describes

the three fundamental store

types.

Type Description

Sequence Records a list of steps that contain all cell

colours. The Sequence contains timing information

for each step, controlling the speed and methods

of playback.

Stack Records a list of steps that contain commands

including Submaster triggers and Page Changes.

The Stack is generally used to synchronise overall

show playback. A stack can also be selected to

auto-load when the program starts which provides

a method of fully automated playback.

Page Defines the order of Sequences in the playback

panel.


RECORD

BUTTON

The Record button and the Stores palette are intimately linked.

When Record is pressed, the workspace is recorded to the entity

selected in the Stores palette. The following table describes the

detailed operation:

Store-Palette Selection Record Operation

Sequence Heading Next consecutive Sequence

added. Step 1 added to new

Sequence. Workspace recorded to

step 1.

Sequence New step addended to end of


new step.

Sequence Step New step inserted after selected

step. Workspace recorded to new

step.

Stack Heading New Stack added. First step of

new Stack added.

Stack New step appended to end of

Stack.

Stack Step New step inserted after selected

step.

Playback Page Heading Next consecutive Sequence

added. First playback of first

page assigned to new Sequence.

Workspace recorded to first step

of new Sequence.

Playback Page Next consecutive Sequence

added. First playback of selected

page assigned to new Sequence.

Workspace recorded to first step

of new Sequence.

Playback Entry Next consecutive Sequence

added. Selected playback of

selected page assigned to new


first step of new Sequence.

When the workspace is recorded, the last edited timing values are

used for the new recording. It therefore saves programming time

to set your preferred Sequence times after the first recording. As

with all areas of Colour-Tramp - the right click menu provides

access to more detailed controls.

TIP


POPUP

MENUS

Popup menus are displayed when any entity within the Stores

palette is right clicked. The following tables detail the operation:

SEQUENCES

A sequence is a list of steps that controls the output from Colour-

Tramp. Each step contains the colour settings for all cells along

with timing and control information for that step.

Sequences have an associated fade profile that controls the

submaster fader operation when playback starts. Sequences must

be assigned to a playback page in order to be used.

There are two key configuration sections for sequences:

Sequence settings

Step configuration

These options are accessed from the right click popup menus as

detailed in the preceding section.

SEQUENCE

Wait time The time interval between the Submaster playback

start (pressing the ‘In’ button) and the start of the

Submaster fader movement. During this time phase,

the playback is not affecting the output.

In time The time interval over which the Submaster fader

moves from zero to full.

Hold time The hold time is disabled when the ‘Disable Out’ tick

box is ticked. In this mode, the Submaster stays at

full until an out fade command is given.

When ‘Disable Out’ is inactive, the hold time is the

time interval between the Submaster reaching

maximum and the Submaster starting to fade out.

Out time The out time is disabled when the ‘Disable Out’ tick

box is ticked. In this mode, the Submaster stays at

full until an out fade command is given.

When ‘Disable Out’ is inactive, the out time is the

time interval over which the Submaster moves from

full to zero.



Legend The name of the sequence. This is displayed above the

Submaster in the playback panel.

Direction Forward Sequence playback starts at the first

step and continues through consecutive

steps to the end. If ‘Loop at End’ is

enabled, playback repeats from the first

step.

Reverse Sequence playback starts at the last step

and continues through consecutive steps

to the first step. If ‘Loop at End’ is

enabled, playback repeats from the last

step.

Bounce Sequence playback alternated between

forward and reverse mode.

Controls Loop at

When this control is ticked, sequence

playback is continuous.

When unticked, the sequence plays once

only.

Disable

Out

When this control is enabled, the fade

profile timers for ‘hold’ and ‘out’ are

disabled. That is; the Submaster stays at

full.

When this control is unticked, all four

phases of the profile timer are used.



Playback

Mode

Playback mode defines how Submaster

playbacks interact with each other. The

submasters in the Playback Panel can be

considered as ‘layer controllers’. Playback

1 is the bottom layer or furthest from

the viewer. Colour interaction between

cells controlled by the lower number

playbacks is adjusted by changing the

playback mode of the higher numbered

playbacks.

The concept of layers is fundamental to

Colour-Tramp. Layers replace older

concepts such as HTP and LTP.

Layered Black is a transparent colour. All other

colours take priority over lower numbered

submasters.

The following example considers the

output of a single cell as the sequence

progresses:

Submaster 1 plays all white.

Submaster 2 plays red to black fade.

Result: Red to white fade.

Additive All colours additively mix with lower

numbered submasters.

OVERVIEW

Sequences are played back using the Playback Panel. Stacks are

played back in their own control panel.

PLAYBACK

PANEL

The Playback panel provides six independent, automated sub-

masters. Each sub-master is able to playback a sequence. The

allocation of sequences to playback pages is set in the Stores

palette.

The Playback panel is activated from

the palette toolbar.

The active Playback Page is selected with the two arrow keys in the

lower right of the screen. The sequence assigned to a submaster

only changes when the profile fader is at zero.

Master Faders

Two master faders are located on the left edge of the Playback

Panel.

The ‘Play Master’ masters all of the submaster profile faders.

The ‘Work Master’ controls output from the workspace. When the

Work Master is at zero, the only output is provided by submaster

playback. This is ‘Show Mode’.


When the Work Master is above zero, the output of Colour-Tramp

is controlled by the Workspace Tab Bar.

The following table defines the interaction between the two master

faders.

The level of each fader can be set at application start from the

Preferences dialogue.

TIP


SEQUENCE

PLAYBACK

A Sequence contains both level and timing information. Two types

of timing exist: The submaster profile and the step timing.

The submaster profile affects overall playback of the sequence.

Step timing is unique for each step.

The following screen shot shows details of the sequence playback

controls.

The following table discusses each control in detail:

OVERVIEW

Many applications for Colour-Tramp will require fully automated

startup of the system or remote control.

Power on show start is achieved as follows:

POWER ON

START

The majority of PCs now have a software controlled power button.

To achieve a PC power-up when mains power is switched on, you will

need to adjust the BIOS settings of the PC.

Unfortunately, these settings vary from manufacturer to

manufacturer, so an exact description of how to do this is not

possible. The following is a guide:

1. BIOS setup is usually accessed by pressing the ‘Delete’ key

during power on.

2.Look for a menu called ‘Power’. Switch on the option called

‘Automatically Restart after Power Loss’.


SOFTWARE

START

Colour-Tramp can be set to start automatically after Windows

starts.

This is achieved by adding a shortcut to Colour-Tramp to the

‘Startup’ folder.

1. Right click on the ‘Start Button’.

2. Click on ‘Explore’.

3. A copy of Windows Explorer starts, with ‘Start Menu’

selected.

4. Click on the ‘+’ next to ‘Programs’.

5. Select ‘Startup’.

6. Right click on the folder list and select ‘New – Shortcut’.

7. Press browse and select the Colour-Tramp icon from the

list.

8. Press ‘Next’ and then ‘Browse’.

9. Locate the Colour-Tramp shows folder: My Computer –

c:\Program Files\Artistic Licence\Colour-Tramp\Shows

10. Select the show file that you wish to load automatically.

11. Click on ‘OK’ and ‘Next’.

12. Enter a name for the shortcut and press ‘Next’.

13. Press ‘Finish’

When the PC restarts, it will automatically load Colour-Tramp and

then load the required show file.

SHOW RUN

The preference menu, as described in the preceding section, is used

to define the Stack and / or Macro to be run automatically at

power on.


REMOTE

CONTROL

Colour-Tramp can be remote controlled via DMX over Art-Net. This

is achieved by either remote controlling the playback panel or by

triggering Macros.

DMX CONFIG

A single universe of Art-Net DMX is used for all triggering

functions. This is defined in the preferences menu. Note that

remote control is disabled by setting the start address to zero. It

is also worth noting that it is possible to set the remote control

universe to one which is output by Colour-Tramp. Whilst this is

possible, it is not recommended for most applications. The reason is

that it is very easy to cause a triggering loop.

E X P O R T

OVERVIEW

The Export sub-menu is located in the File menu. Three options are

provided:

1. Export workspace to bitmap

2.Export all sequences to bitmap

3.Export to Show-Control

The first two options allow graphics to be exported for use in a

multimedia package. This allows, for example, generation of AVI of

Flash files for client presentations.

The third option is used for programming the Artistic Licence

Show-Control product.
