I have the DMX Operator and am trying to control the following 6 lights with it. The lights are in the following order on a portable overhead truss.(1)Chauvet Intimidator 150,(2)Chauvet Color Pallette LED,(3)ADJ Revo III,Then I have the same lights as the last three. In other words 3 pairs of lights. I wanted double the coverage so each pair of lights was given the same dmx address. Starting with 001,033,049.
I can turn the lights on/off by pushing the scanner switches. The problem is that when I go to adjust the pallettes (033) the Intim 150's (001) move. If I go to adjust the Revos )049) the other two types change. I tried turning off the switches so that I could adjust only the lights lights with the switches on and those turned off go black.
(1) How do I set up either the controller or lights so that I can choose which set of lights I adjust without having the others changing? I am running the lights in their minimum channel modes as I'm a dj and have plenty of other things going on and do not have a dedicated lighting guy.
(2) If I decide to just run everything in sound mode which I think might be boring for a 4-5 hour gig how do I configure them so that I can turn each set on/off to break up the show?
(3) I'm not completely new to the dmx operator as I have used it in a live band setting with 8 adj proper 56 RGB par cans that I also own. Thanks Howard,Seabrook,NH
