How to control the channel "dimmer" ? [fixed]

Post by dax831 »

Hi

We are adding some Eurolite Pin Spots to our show and would like to use the Pixels feature with them.

The units have DMX channels Red, Green, Blue, Master Dimmer and Control. When using pixels the units don't illuminate as there doesn't seem to be an option in Pixels to control the dimmer channel.

The manual can be found at

Is there a workaround for this?

Regards

Paul

It is possible to force channel 4 (dimmer) to 255, in Pixels, like this:

In Fixture properties > section "Shared channels", you have to set the dropbox "Last channels" to "2" (means RGB are followed by 2 channels).
Then click on "Edit" to open the windows "Shared channels".
In the window "Shared channels", set the first fader (following RGB colors) (this is "dimmer") to 255.
Click on "close".

PS : you can also fix a value for channel 5.
