two parameters on one DMX Channel

[mingen]

Hey all together,

i hope someboby can help me. I have the following Problem :

My Fixture has on the last DMX Channel two Parameters.

Range 0%-50% is the Strobe from Fast to Slow and Range 51%-100% is the Dimmer.

 

So now i want to splitt this Parameters in the Fixture Editor

I hope you understand and can help me.

 

Thanks to all and greetings from Germany.

Hi Stefan,

 

there is no function of a DMX-Channel-Level-Split.

 

Probably this is a work around.

 

Quote "Virtual Intensity

Each fixture can have a Virtual Intensity channel. This channel is not assigned to a

DMX address, but can be used to scale the output of other channels, creating an

effective dimmer for colour mixing fixtures which do not have a separate dimmer.

An example of the use of a virtual intensity parameter would be an LED colour mixing

fixture which has just 3 channels – Red, Green and Blue. By scaling these channels

on a virtual master, you can dim a mixed colour.

Zero 88 Fixture Editor User Guide - IM8554 Issue 2 - August 2008 - Page 6 of 10

First create the Virtual Intensity channel as a normal parameter, but tick the “Virtual

Channel” box. Then select “Scale By Virtual Intensity” on the relevant fixture

parameters."

 

You may do so with strobe/dim channel of your fixture

 

 

I hope this is of help.

 

Cheers
