  1. Hi Sven

     

    Are you in non-tracking mode?

     

    In non-tracking mode, or with Smart Tag enabled in Tracking Mode, the desk looks at fixtures whose intensity is set to 0% and ignores any other values set for those parameters. This is to simplify programming of complicated cue stacks where you don't have to 'think' about fixtures whose intensity is 0%, but can cause some confusion when programming palettes.

     

    Try setting the intensity to 100% on the fixtures before you program the palette. Note that this will not get stored into the palette, but just needs to be turned on before you program those fixtures.

     

    I hope that this helps - please let me know how you get on,

  2. Hi Aniaki

     

    To do this, you'll need to set your preset faders into HTP mode. You can do this in SETUP / DESK SETUP / BEHAVIOUR and select Preset Mix Mode as HTP. Once set to HTP, the preset faders won't go into the programmer and you'll be able to solo them and the submasters together.

     

    I hope this helps,

  3. Hi Aniaki,

     

    The procedure you have described is the correct method, to change the DMX address of fader number 1, so that that fader controls DMX channel 3.

     

    If you wanted to assign DMX channel 1 (your fresnel) onto fader number 3, then you should do:

     

     

     

    Setup

    Patch

    Edit Fixture

    Click on Patch

    Press flash button "3" (the fader you want to assign)

    click in "DMX" column

    and change 1/3 to 1/1

     

    I hope this helps - please let me know if you need any more help.

  4. Hi Pat,

     

    We have no plans of offering an iPhone app for the Jester TLXtra or any of the Jester range - these products do not feature Ethernet capabilities so adding an app would involve a complete redesign of the product.

     

    I hope this helps,

  7. Hi Piero

     

    Do you have a router or just a crossover cable between your desk and the WYSIWYG machine?

     

    If you use 'dmxshow.exe' in the WYSIWYG\bin\ folder, does that work?

     

    I hope we can help you resolve this - sorry for the delay in response.

  8. Hi Sven

     

    You can't access the MFKs on the iPad remote at the moment, only on the iPhone/Android/Windows Mobile remotes - unfrotunately the iPad remote is designed as a remote monitor tool, not as a remote control tool.

     

    We may add this in future, but right now, this is not possible.

     

    Kind Regards,

  9. Zero 88 are pleased to announce the launch of ZerOS version 7.1 software for Leap Frog 48, Leap Frog 96, Frog 2 and ORB series. The following are now available from our support centre:

     

    - New desk software (ZerOS 7.1)

    - Offline editor software (Phantom ZerOS 7.1)

     

     

    Version 7.1 includes number of bug fixes from version 7.0 and we would urge all users to upgrade.

     

     

    A full list of bug fixes are available in the Release notes.

  10. Hi Erik

     

    The reason for this is that you have the submasters set to 'Submaster Controls... Colour'. Because of this, when you move the fader down, the submaster returns the fixture to its default value. The default RGB values you have specified in the fixture type are 100%, so as you move the fader down the colour fades to 100%.

     

    In Edit Fixtures, select your LEDs and adjust the Default value for Red, Green and Blue to 0%. Then the submasters should behave as you expect.

     

    I hope this helps,

  11. Hi Aniaki

     

    It sounds like somehow your installation or show file has become corrupted.

     

    Are you running on a Mac under Parallels, Wine, etc, or on a Windows PC? I've seen that error on Macs a lot - Phantom ZerOS is not tested or approved for the use on a Mac.

     

    You should try reinstalling Phantom ZerOS to clear this error on a Windows PC.

  12. Hi Kev

     

    There are a couple of things you can try on non-working sticks to try and get them working - the main thing is holding SHIFT whilst pressing Next after you've selected the stick in the USB-install maker. This will offer to update the MBR (Master Boot Record) on the stick - try this on the non-working sticks and you'll probably find that a number of them start working.

     

    As with any problem like this, it's always worth giving us a call to talk through these problems - 01633 838088 - we're always happy to talk you through fault finding these problems.

  13. Hi Techbppac,

     

    Please can you give us more information about what your setup is - what remote client are you using? What desk type? I assume you mean version 7 by 'new software' but worth checking.

     

    Once we have some more information we should be able to work out what is going on.

  14. Hi Stefan

     

    We have changed the Program Window to be more focussed towards programming fixtures from ZerOS 7.0 onwards. The generic channel tag states are still shown in the Output Window, so you can use this window instead to see the information you are looking for. This dedicated fixtures window allows you to see far more fixtures in one view, versus the old version. I hope this makes sense.

     

    To move windows to another screen, you need to have the screen active. So log in with your remote monitor (iPad/Windows/Android) and then select the group window and push 'Screen'. If you are just using the internal desktops, you won't be able to move this screen onto Desktop 2 at present.

     

    I hope this helps,

     

     

     

    Peter

  15. Hi diver1976,

     

    If you open the Output Window (with the Outputs button on the front panel) and then select the Other Windows drop down in the top left, you can open the Effects Window from there.

     

    I hope this helps,

  16. Hi chw,

     

    Thanks for spotting this one - we hadn't actually noticed it during testing, it's obviously something that got broken in the new software.

     

    I've added it as a bug report onto our system - reference ZOS-3759 - and it will be fixed in the next release.

     

    As you say, for now, the work around is to use the Other Windows button.

     

    Sorry about this bug, I hope it doesn't cause you too many problems.
