Par 56 and SD3

Hi,

I just purchased the Show Designer 3. I'm trying to program LED Par 56 that has following channels:
1 - Black out/Master dimmer
2 - Red dimmer
3 - Green dimmer
4 - Blue dimmer
5 - 0-10 strobe, 11-100 Auto chase, 151-255 Sound active collor change

What profile I should use for this? When I use par 36 it get only collor dimmers but no chance setting channel 5. Is there something I'm missing or is there a profile I can use that will have these settings?

Thank you

Hi Lechu,

You will either need to choose the 32channel fixture, then modify it to have 5 channels and assign the dimmer.

Or

you can create your own profile using this simple software.

I would recomend creating your own profile.

Best regards,

Here is what's happening. I created a profile and I'm able to control colors, strobe, etc... Now I have an issue that once I connect 3 or 4 of them and assign the channels (1-5 for first 6-11 for second 12-17 for third and so on) only the first fixture property can be changed and at the same time it changes the rest of them, but if I want to change lets say color on the other fixtures they do not respond to changes. Is that normal? Do I have to break them by other type of fixture?

Well, I actually solve my problem. First I moved the fixture addresses to 1-16, 17-33, 34-49 etc... Then I found the dip switch configuration... and that's it! It works!
