  1. On a pearl you can program a Position, color and gobo (for example) on one button. When you press it the beam will change in that color, go to that position and that gobo will be enabled.

    Well sounds like the "fucus-memories" on the old Sirius 250. I miss them too - you could just put all together and change the settings of your movinglights a very easy way.

    Submasters / memories are not so fast to reload. Specialy if you use touchscreen it would be much easier to have mixed cues.

  2. Hi Matthew

    You are right. I just had an DHCP WiFi Router that i have configurated at home (manage DHCP and Broadcast a WLAN) . At the Ehternet (LAN) Port I connectet the Leapfrog. After a few seconds on the PDA there was the LeapFrog online and i was able to connect to it.

    Hope it'll help you.

    Greatings Carl

  3. This sounds like a bug to me.

     

    Any dimmer/brightness channels that are programmed with non-zero values in memory 1 should fade to zero when memory 2 is triggered in the fade down time defined in memory 2.

     

    Reference: LF-1882

    Well same problem on the new Version 3.0 on the Frog :-(

    if you load the show again it sems to work korrekt but normaly we only safe the show for backup. Well it also would by a nice feature :-) if we can chose a different fadetime for a few dimmers this would also be nice - but not the way it's working right now.

     

    Thanks for fixing it soon!

  4. Does this mean you are only interested in the intensity fade times ?

     

    There are also Colour, beamshape and position fade times applicable to the memory if the corresponding fixture parameters are programmed :P

    Well for me the most important fade time is the brightness - all others are nice to have but not necessary. For the Color, Beamshape and Position it could be something like on the Memory-Screen. That setting which is selected on the buttons (Color, Position, Beamshape) is show the fade time.

    There is also the move on dark that could be indicated if and when it's changing any settings.

    But for me the first would be first of all enough.

  5. Hi,

     

    It would be nice to have the remaining fade time displayed , it is more accurate than a progress bar and would be very appreciated by theaters.

     

    you could use for example the format: up XX/YY down XX/YY

    where XX is remaining time and YY the programmed time. it would just take a space of 1 line above the bar.

    Yes that would be very helpful - so we have also a way without 2 progress bar as on other topic shown ;-)

  6. It would be very useful to get a print / export function. I need to print the channel data eg. memories no / Submaster no., text, fade times, Ch 1-48 value (nice to have: C/P/B/E No MFK). So I can program it easier on other theatres if I have to. And its a good backup if there are any problems.

  7. Can attribues such as colour or better effects change their speed and size with the percentage given by the submaster ignoring fade times?

    You think about somethin like on a Martin Case - so that you can "fade" to an endposition on the way of the fader? that sound very usefull! Was also thinking about something like that.

  8. Situation: LeapFrog 48, Software Version: 2.15

     

    I try to patch a 1ch Scroller to MFK 1 and DMX 512. There comes a error: “Insufficient Channels in the Selected Universe to patch”

     

    If I try to patch the same fixture to Channel 100 it works. Is there anything that works wrong? We have the 512er to control all our vans in the Scrollers (switch off the Van by Value > 50%).

     

    Greetings

  9. Situation: LeapFrog 48, Software Version: 2.15

     

    I have found an other little bug.

    I have some Memories. Between 4 and 5 there's only 1 Channel that is added. so all others stay on same level.

    The Leap Frog don't give a fade down-time because there is nothing that has to fade down.

    I Transfer the Mem 5 (no fade down time) to Sub 1-1.

    There are at all no times shown in the submaster window. If i switch off and on the desk there is the fade in time. If i fade up the fade there is the time fade as expected in 3 seconds. But if i like to fade it out - the channels stay at their level. They don't go off. You have to switch off the desk and turn it back on.

     

    Very bad during a show !

     

    Thanks for solving - Carl
