The FB4 for settings window can be found under file > FB4 settings.
The FB4 settings window is a virtual terminal to change settings on your FB4s.
Similar to RDM.
Everything you can control on the screen of the FB4 can be changed and controlled from
this window.
You can also see FB4s in this window that are on the network but are not in BEYOND / QS
mode.
This is great for troubleshooting projectors that are already hung in the air.
On the top we can refresh our list to see what projectors are on the network, and label
them if we would like.
Under view we can change our list looks and under quick, we can quickly change modes of
all of our projectors on the network.
On the right, we can change all settings for the projectors.
First with the mode, and then all the settings.
To adjust settings, select which FB4 you want to change or multiple FB4s in the list.
First we can select the operational mode we want for the FB4s to be in.
Note: Not all FB4s will have all options.
It depends on what hardware they are equipped with.
On the right we can adjust other settings.
First is our IP settings.
We can see here the devices current IP mode.
Its IP and its subnet mask.
If you want to assign a static IP for this FB4, we can type in the fixed IP, it's mask
and click fixed IP.
Note, that if you are unaware of your networks IP settings, it's best to leave them in auto
IP mode until you know your IP settings will work.
You don't want to lose access to the device over the network.
Because then you may have to go into the air to physically change it to auto IP or to another
static address.
Under our master settings, we have control of the FB4s Max brightness, its size, in hardware
inverts of x and y positions.
This is useful for hardware flips.
Then under color, we have access to our projector color shift and all the Max brightness levels
for each FB4 color channel.
Next we have our fixture profile.
This is your DMX fixture profile for your either FB3, your 16 channel mode or your FB4,
which is your 39 channel mode.
The names may have changed on newer firmware, but if they've been renamed, it'll be obvious
which one is the 16 and the 39 channel mode.
Next we have ARTNET settings for your universe and subnet.
Then the fixture channel start.
We can enable rdm and of the preamble.
If you're using DMX instead of ARTNET into the laser using five pin, you can set your
channel, rdm and preamble for that here.
Now let's look at settings related to autoplay features.
First you can select our basic autoplay mode for playing a Cue or a list, in which index
that is.
Then we can decide when the Cue stops, to either stop, loop or hold.
If you have a battery installed on your FB4, it can keep time.
Here you can set the date and time for the FB4 manually or sync it to the PC.
You can also sync all FB4s with this button.
Now let's move on to the overall geometric correction, for size x and y, position x and
y, rotation and shear.
These settings are the same settings that will change when you use the setup profile
on the 39 channel DMX / ARTNET mode.
Under timecode, we can select settings related to content that has been uploaded and running
off of ARTNET timecode.
Choose the file index and any offsets you might need to keep everything in time.
Lastly we have our scan guard.
This is a virtual scan guard, which will act similarly to our pass safety scanning system.
This will keep hot beams from becoming too hot and thus dangerous within your specified
area.
Horizon level and angle is a setting where you can set how ... your scarred area will
be and if you want it to be at an angle.
Minimum velocity is how slow the scanners movements need to be to trigger the safety.
And dwell time is how long a scanner needs to stay in one place to trigger the safety.
You can invert the y and how long it will take before the laser will turn back on here.
