[Load own written fixture in existing show]

Hello David,

Thanks for your reply, I did write the fixture file with the Fixture file editor using the channel lay-out of the china lights.
All I want to know if I'm loading this fixture file in the desk it stay's in the desk when I'm loading my showfile afterwards and then can patch these china lights into mine showfile?
I'm not in the position to test it right now, therefore my question.

[Load own written fixture in existing show]

Hello,

Is it possible to load my own written fixture file and patch it in an existing showfile.
I have an event with my own existing show, however the DJ has some China lights the he want's to use so I want to implement them into my show.

best regards.

[Cue starts with full open white]

Hello,

I have a bunch of LED pars, and I've programmed some cues stacked under a playback fader.
But when I slide the playback fader up it starts with full white en fades to the programmed scene, but I want it to fade from dark to the first scene.
stepping further trough the cues there are no problems and works just fine with fade times.
And when I'am stepping from the last cue to the first it shows no open white en fades directly to the programmed scene.

Am I doing something wrong, or do I first have t program a dark step into it?

[Set DMX refresh rate]

The Enttec setting are:

Packet output rate: 17 p/s

MAB (mark after break): 1 (10 micro sec)

Break Time: 1 (micro sec)

 

[Set DMX refresh rate]

Hi,

I've tried all of that, one at a time, terminator at the end, without terminator, XLR5 output, XLR3 output, with booster, without booster, short cable, long cable.
It all makes no difference .

It's just a bad product, but I'll keep on trying.
I'm at the bands warehouse Thursday or Friday so I will read-out the Enttec dongle and post the DMX settings they were using on these spots.

Unfortunately this also makes no difference, so I sent an e-mail to the chinese supplier and awaits his comment.

Thanks, John

Try setting your problem fixtures to a high DMX address, so they are forced to read the whole DMX packet.

I'm going to try this one out tonight, I'll keep u posted.

Thanks, John

[Set DMX refresh rate]

Hello Jon,

Disabling "rigsync" makes no difference, I think the fixtures have a elcheapo DMX board.
They worked around it by changing the refresh rate on a Enttec DMX usb pro dongle.

Hello,

Is it possible to change the DMX refreshrate in the  FLX S24 desk?
Because the band I'm controlling the lights for has some chinese fixtures :-(  who are funking and glittering all over the place with normal DMX.

In the old system they where using they set the refresh rate up so the moving lights were working properly.

Thank you for the quick answer, I'm going to try this one out.

Works perfectly, thanks for your help.

[Color bumb & Intensity]

Hello,

I bought the FLX 24, and I must say it's a great desk with a lot of possibilities however I do have two questions.
The desk is used with live music (band, dj)

- When I program a color bumb chase and set all the fade and delay time's to zero there is stil a crossfade over them. Am I missing something or is this a bug.

- Can I program movements without intesity? Example: I have a bunch of moving heads, I let them move a circle and want to program the movement under a playback but without the intensity to 100%, also to be flexible with other color and gobo playbacks so I can easly give the MH's a black-out but not the Led pars?

Hope to hear from you?

Grtz,

John John
