4. Setup Tips for MA2

  1. Fixture Type: Create a "Server" fixture with 110 channels.
  2. Virtual Dimmer: Map Channel 1 to DIM and Layer Channel 1 to DIM for each layer.
  3. Triggering: Map Channel 13 (Layer 1 Clip Trigger) to a CONTROL or GO attribute with 10-unit steps.
  4. Binding: Ensure TrueLazer is set to listen on the same Network Interface as your MA2 session (e.g., 192.168.x.x).
