first push the effect button twice to open the effects engine and then once more to open the effect directory, then select the moving heads you want to apply the effect to.
and on the effects engine screen you will be many parameters able to be modify, then doble click on the pan in the first colum where it says "table" so you wil get a menu where you can select different wave form, in my case i like spiral but you can play with all the sinewaves until you find one you like.
now that you got the movement you like the other options of the effect will appear on the engine, so now you can change offset, time and so on.
you can do the same procedure to tilt or any other fuction as color, iris, dimmer, etc.
just play a bit with waveforms, offset, and fan.
the fan it`s also a good tool, if you have all your moving lights moving in circle all in the same time and direction and you press the fan key and hold it while changing the offset then you moving heads will move in different direction(this is a bit complicated to explain without see the lights moving hehe, but try it.)
i`m not an expert but if you have any doubt and i can help you just let me know ;)
here are you can find more info.

have a look to the pages 251-262 for more info about effects
and 173-178 for more info about fanning.
hope this help :)
