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....

DMX number problems.

Post by Kosh »

I have a RGY Laser I built a fixture for. It works well enough.
I set it on a channel any where from DMX 1 to DMX 200 it works fine.. but once i got past dmx setting 200
the laser shoots out a red and green dot and wont function
I would like it to put the fixture on DMX channel 338


This happens if the laser is attached to freestyler entecc open dongle or not attached to anything so that leads me to believe its the laser and not the dongle or software


Is there any way to fix this or work around this...

If i have to put this laser in a diffrent DMX setting below 200 . I would have to re program freestyler entirely and I put adhesive labels on 26 fixtures with the dmx dip switch settings on them.. i would have to remove and replace all of these as well.

try it one time on dmx value 256<--- and lower.
if this works, it can be that your fixture only supports 256dmx channels.

not all the Fixtures supports 512dmx channels.
