Errormessage FixtureCreator - "Channel is higher than total channels"

Post by Benjamin »

Hi dear comrades-in-arms,

I have a strange message that "Channel is higher than total channels". :o
In the pictures you can look at the configuration.
I don't see any mistake.
Config pages - look attachements please!

Can someone help me?

Many thanks!

Your fixture requires 15 DMX channels. If you add it to Freestyler with a starting address higher than 240 I believe you will get this error.

My error. I reread your post.
Looking at the pictures you uploaded, it looks like you have selected RGB segments. You specified 15 channels but in the segment definition it looks like (sorry, the pictures are fuzzy) you specified 25 rows with 0 segments. If this is the case then this may be your issue. Try either 4 rows with 1 segment per row or 1 row with 4 segments.

Edited to correct a couple of typing errors.
