Re: Showtec Clubscan help needed
According to the description you fixture has 17 gobo's and:Soundstar Drive In wrote: can you please tell me how to configure the: rainbow effect, the strobe effect and what to do with the flip gobo options
You need to devide those 2 in steps. Lets assume 4. (but you may do more or less, what fits the best).108-171 Positive/Negative Rainbow effect with increasing speed
172-251 Strobe effect with increasing speed
Meaning you need to configure 25 (17+4+4) gobos.
The 108-171 should be spread out over that 4 "gobo's".
Same goes for 172-251. Insert nice pictures to explain what it does.
If you have more questions, please post your exported fixture file with it. (*.pff) so we can see were youre at.

Re: Showtec Clubscan help needed
oke, I'm finished creating the file, can you tell me how to attach the pff file?
I did not test it jet, since I do not have the interface yet....
If tested it, i will post the file for other forum members.
Also I created all the pictures for the gobo's and the fixture as wel, including the ones for the gobo flipping.
Should I upload them as well, and where should I do this?

Re: Showtec Clubscan help needed
In the fixture creator you can export the fixture file you created.
Choose: File->Export.
It will export an *.pff file, that file contains *everything* needed. So you don't need to attach images and other stuff.
Just attach the *.pff file to your post using the upload attachment tab shown under the editor when creating or editing a post.

Re: Showtec Clubscan help needed
I just gabe the ixture file you created a quick look. Everything seams to be fine. Now it is up to you to test with the fixture at your side.
The only thing I noticed you set a lamp on/off channel but no shutter channel. Test the master blackout function. I am not sure if that will work. I think (but do not know exaclty right now if I am right) that blackout will close the shutter. If blackout does not work with your fixture file add values for the shutter channel:
channel: 4, open: 246, close: 0 (or something like that, I guess you know what I mean).
