Importing the CSV is made by a right click into the stage tree.
If you import a CSV into the stage where a Bank already contains the Fixture Type with the same name, it will link to them instead of recreating the Fixture Type.

The importation process can take some time if your csv contain a lot of element.
After the importation Smode atamaticly created:
  1. The fixture bank with inside the different fixture type.
  2. The Group of element.
  3. The led instance with their Dmx Universe and address set.

Option

Only the Positions Columns are required at the minimum.
The name of the fixture will be "Led" and no group created.
If there is no Universe and Channel Columns the adressing will be automatic.
