Forum rules
This forum is designed for you to get HELP with building fixtures, Please make an attempt if you get stuck YOU must upload your partial fixture file (as an exported fixture file) so we can point you in the right direction if you don't do this you won't LEARN and if you don't learn you will may never be able to get the fixtures you require. It is Very hard to make fixtures for people when we don't have the same light at hand to test it with after all having the light in front of you makes programing so much easier! That's why we will help but rarely build any fixtures for you. You Alone are the best person to build your fixtures if you need help ask if you want it building for you Don't....
or alternativaly if your willing to pay for fixtures to be created then go here : http://www.freestylersupport.com/wiki/f ... on_service

Problem with blackout

Post by ezitsuj »

Hi,

I have 3 fixtures connected in my test set up, one PAR 56 LED, One laserworld ES 400 RGY and one American DJ Hypergem

When i use the blackout function only the PAR 56 goes out, and the other remain unaffected.

The channels are set correctly and everything else works as expected

What am i doing wrong?

Regards,
Marcus

Hi

blckout depant on the Channels you use..
and FS looks at it in ONE order..

IF Fixture has Shutter, then Shutter CLOSED is used for Blackout.
IF Fixture Doesnt have Shutter, BUT intensitie channel, Then Intensitie MIN is used for Blackout
IF fixture doesnt have Shutter or Intensitie, BUT RGB channels, then RGB "0" is used for Blackout..
