Centering fixtures

One thing I do is create my own blackout scene with a set position for movers. Usually all of them doing a full rotation on the pan channel and tilt on 127. And i use this instead of the "INIT" which is all channels at 0. Also a tip: do not modify the INIT scene just create your own. doing so messes with hoe scenes are played back from the master page and fixture pages.
Does that make sense?
If you want me to re-explain a bit better let me know.

Not really HAHA! So....I have all of my looks programmed as scenes. The movements are programmed as switches. Let's say I'm static in Scene 1. Then the band goes into a jam and I engage the Circles Switch, when I do, before the lights go into the movement they spin around as if they are resetting position; then go into the circles. I have the movements programmed in the same quadrant on the graph as the scenes are.

Here is one thing I'm noticing when I program positions. The lights are facing upstage and tilted all the way up, or down if the light is ground stacked. When I program the position, it's usually far in an upper corner of the graph. After reading about centering in the manual, I'm wondering if this is the cause of my woes with the movements? I haven't been centering during the patch. Guessing that I should be, and lights should be pointed directly down or up(no pan/tilt) depending on how the are placed?

Are you modifying the pan and tilt amplitude in step 3 of patching in a new page? Or how are you modifying the center position. and by center do you mean the pre programmed center button?
Do you wanna just give me a call? 1-323-213-4590
Sincerely,

Phone is dead. Charger is at the venue. I'll call when I go in.

But basically I have done no centering or modifying the amplitude when I patch. I feel like this is the source of my problems. Just wanted to get your thoughts before I go in tonight and see what happens when I do center the lights.
