Fixture Setup Sequence [fixed]
Posted: 09 September 2014, 16:44
I started creating a small demo show for a client in V7.19 with parcans, 4Bar flex's and headbanger 10's and have have configured :-
12 x Parcans to 6 channel dimmer pack (Dmx 1-6) (Software creates Fixture1 to Fixture6)
2 x Chauvet 4 Bar Flex in 15Ch mode (Dmx 7-21 and Dmx 22-36) (Software creates Fixture7 and Fixture8)
8 x LedParCans in 4Ch mode for above purely for 3D view (Dmx 101-32) (Software creates Fixture9 to Fixture16)
2 x Stagg Hb10 in 12Ch mode (Dmx 37-48 and Dmx 49-60) (Software creates Fixture17 and Fixture18)
With D512 connected all fixtures work correctly in realtime mode, but when viewed in 3D window, the Hb10's lightbeams are seen on the first 2 LedParCans. It appears as if the 3DViewer has linked the incorrect Fixture to it.
With using notepad, I can edit fixtures.ini file and change Fixture17&18 to Fixture9&10, and increment Fixture9-16 to Fixture11-18.
This seems to solve the 3DView, but could be a drawn out solution when fixtures are changed and moved around.
