Add a Fixture Library to Hog 4 OS

Explanation

When a profile request has been fulfilled you will need to add the profile to the Hog OS before it can be patched and used.  The below instructions are for outside a show (at the Hog Start Screen), but you can do this inside a show.

If on a Console you will need to save the Library file to a USB Stick and plug the stick into the console. If you are on PC, you can save the file to your desktop.

Use this guide when:

• You have a single fixture library for a fixture that has been made by HES
• A fixture library that was exported from Hog 4 OS v3.9.0 or above
• A full fixture library has been released, and you want to use it on your console

1. Right-click Copy the Profile
2. Launch the Hog OS
3. Sitting at the Hog Start Screen
4. Select the File Browser Button
5. A File Browser Window will open
6. Click the Libraries Folder opening it
