Viewpoint Position X
The Viewpoint Position X parameter determines the x component of the viewpoint position to 
the target you have specified in the Viewpoint Mode parameter. The horizontal angle is the angle 
around the vertical (y) axis. Heading is another name for this angle.
Default DMX Value: 32768 = center
DMX values above center of the range move counterclockwise to the maximum horizontal angle 
at a value of 65535 (100%). DMX values below the center move clockwise to the minimum 
horizontal angle at a value of 0.
Viewpoint Position Y
The Viewpoint Position Y parameter sets the vertical angle above/below the horizontal plane. 
Pitch is another name for this component of the viewpoint position.
Default DMX Value: 32768 = center
DMX values above the center of the range move counterclockwise to the maximum vertical 
angle at a value of 65535 (100%). DMX values below the center move clockwise to the 
minimum vertical angle at a value of 0.
Viewpoint Position Z (Zoom)
The Viewpoint Position Z (Zoom) parameter is the distance from the view target. Zooming 
toward the target, you can move through it and view it from the back side creating an mirror 
image view of the composite object. 
Default DMX Value: 30260 = center (This default value is slightly less than midway through 
the range to maintain some depth to the view of a composite image.) 
DMX values above center move toward the maximum distance from origin in back of view target 
(a DMX value of 65535). DMX values below center move toward the maximum distance from 
origin in front of view target at a value of zero.
