OK... I'm shoulder deep in an ever-changing load-in. And the plot is basic. Dimmers and a hand full of movers and LED washes. - Universe 1 = Dimmer Rig
- Universe 2 = Movers, LED, etc...
I'm working with an augmented Rep Plot--my original VW files were created in VW2015 and updated thru the upgrades to now VW2018/SP2. I've also just upgraded to LW6.0.16.185 in hopes of cleaner migration and patching into the EOS desk... (and myriad other reasons...) But I can't wrap my head around: - How am I actually supposed to enter data into the OIP for each instrument?
- Which is the best and basic setting between VW & LW?
- How can I avoid re-entering the same information (Dimmer field, Address field, etc.)
- Best way to enter a re-patch so that all fields update?
My plot is a mess!
(at one point, every instrument on the plot had "Universe X/XXX" in each little container!)
All I want to see on my VW Plot print is Conventional Instruments with Dimmers, Intelligent gear with the actual address that needs to be input on the instrument. And no more head math... +512/-512...!!!
Maybe this old school designer, also masquerading as an ME, Programmer, etc., just has to start all over! (?)
Thank you!

Please email me directly, but the info you need is in the LW6 Addresses & VW document. Despite rewriting it 6 times, it's still hard to understand because old habits die hard. If you have my cell phone#, call me on Sunday or Monday and I can talk you through it.
