Re: Magic 260 - 22 channel light !
Thanks for that. Well I have the 260 in my hands now so checking the profiles I have created... One strange thing happening - Ch11 is not used on the fixture no steps or values. When loaded onto the 260 it is shuffled along to the channel 16 position. No lights yet to see if channels 12 to 16 work correctly John

Re: another noob question.....
Sergio, I have an Scene Setter 24 ch connected to two ETC Smartpack wall mounted dimmer panels. SS24 outputs 1-12 go to 1st panel with 12 dimmers and outputs 13-18 to second panel with 6 dimmers. The SS24 outputs are in sequence but actual light wiring to dimmers is mixed. How can I assign sliders to match the phisical light configuration (as suggested in your remarks)? Or do I need to rewire the dimmer panels to match SS24 sliders? Johnhrv The existing

Re: another noob question.....
Sergio, Thanks for your reply. I am not at our church to check the DIPs but all 18 outputs are working now using DMX. No the slider channels have not been changed. BUT, that is what I want to try but cannot find instructions. Can you direct me to a source of instruction for changing slider output channels. My other option is to re-wire the ETC Smartpacks. My objective is to get the SS24 sliders in the same order as theater lighting fixtures (now mixed). johnhrv

Re: Buggy MAC version
Select any fixture and click 'copy' and it crashes. Nice if you hit that by accident at a concert with 6,000 people watching a live band as we will have this Saturday. Very expensive for the pleasure of being a tester. PS - Your link says Build.14 and the program says b.12 in 'About' box it says; 1.02.12 (1.02.9) I think this is build.12 not 14

Re: Generic moving head Fixture
Is there anyway you can tell us exact dmx values? For example channel 1 0-12 is say like gobo open etc? We will need much more specific values for all the channels in order to build a profile correctly for you. Also we will need some sort of name for this fixture. It can be anything. Even your name. What would you like us to call it? Welcome to the forums. Sincerely,

Re: help with building a matrix
OK Here goes. As of the last beta of CompuShow I tested, the profile editor still did not allow for a fixture to have multiple R, G, or B slots. Therefor, you can patch a matrix with the full profile but the effects will only work for pixel 1. (Very few console manufacturers have this capability built in to their consoles as of yet.) Build a Matrix of 3 Channel RGB Units. It can be handy to open a 3 channel LED fixture profile in the PROFILE EDITOR and name it Pixel and save it as Pixel.

Re: Channel Assignment Q - Newbie
You have to use the assignments mentioned in the DMX Operator manual. When you do that faders 12 - 16 won't do anything (because your fixture only uses 11 of the sixteen available per fixture), but that is OK. Each fixture button will control each CMY Zoom the same.

Re: Design 12 brick profile needed
Hey Amen and welcome to the forums. If you are looking for a Hog 3 profile, it is already in there as LED 12 Brick. For Hog 2, there is no profile. You can set them to 3 channel mode though and just use a Generic CMY Profile instead. Cyan would be red, Magenta would be green, and Yellow would be blue. Hope this helps.

Re: DMX 192 controller question
Pat, The manual isn't particularly clear on this point. Give this a try: Set the DMX channel of all the Group 1 fixtures to 1, Group 2 to 17, Group 3 to 33 and Group 4 to 49. Now, assuming all the fixtures in each group are the same kind of fixture as the other fixtures in that group, you will be able to control each group as you would like. For example, if all your fixtures were simple 4 channel fixtures (red, green, blue, brightness), when you select Fixture 1 (from the left bank of 12...

what mode? there are more than one dmx mode you can run this on. Mega Tri Bar 7 DMX work modes (2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12 & 54 channel modes) this might be why only part of your fixture is responding and the other part isn't. check to make sure that the software as well as the light are set up for the same mode.

Sorry for the late response on these question guys, I will try to explain DMX addressing now. The best way to describe DMX addressing is that it is like the postal system. First, you pick the address you want to send the letter to. Then the letter goes to the mail center, where it is sorted for delivery. Next, a mailman takes the letter and delivery's it to the address. The first step in setting up DMX system is you patch your console (Pick the address you want to send commands to). Since...

DMX address in 2/8 or 2/12 mode for Chavet
For the Elations 8 and 24 Trendsetter DMX 2 (9 or 13) in 2/8, 8/8 or 2/12, 12/12 mode isn’t recognized by Chauvet's EVE E-50Z (either in channel 1 or 3 mode). In fact, it refuses to work on any DMX channel other than DMX1. With the 1/16 and 1/24 mode DMX for all channels work individually as addressed. Is the Elations Trendsetter putting out an address which it’s not publishing? The other devices work on DMX 9 or 13 when in 2/8, 8/8 or 2/12, 12/12 mode.
