Exporting DMX-channel patching to a CSV

[GrantH]

Hi,

We're a highschool running a S24. How do I extract the channel->DMX data into a human readable form? Effectively I want a patch list, so that if we move & re-address a fitting for some reason, we have a reference to put it back

The only way I can see i  to get the show information from Setup > Save > Advanced > ZerOS | Save Complete show. This generates a zip file, from which I could possibly reverse engineer from the XML files, but this seems are real hack, and a lot of effort for something that should really exist?

Save the show as .CSV. open this in a spreadsheet. The top row is a map of all fixtures and their parameter channels.

You may have to put at least one cue on the master PB and it may need to include a cue that references every fixture. I can't remember. I also can't remember if channel numbers or addresses are included.

I've only used it to check cues and parameter values.
