Help with Single Channel Fixtures in a Sequence

Post by BigBadWolf77 »

I have been using FreeStyler for about a year now. I have a couple dozen RGB LED's and 8 Moving heads. I have recently added a couple of 4 channel dimmer paks to run 8 Parcans that I want to move off of our dimmer rack and onto DMX. I set them up as individual lights using the fixtures in the ParCan folder. I have no issues manually controling the lights, and when I create a sequence involving the lights the parcans react when i move between the steps. My issues comes in when I try to run the sequence from the cue list or submasters. Everything in the sequence reacts as expected, but none of the Cans on the dimmers respond. Not sure if there is some extra step with a single channel fixture. I am attaching a current backup.

Thanks in advance for any help.

*EDIT Backup was too big...

hi

i'm Not sure what the problem about the Cuelist can be.
but for the submaster you have a Slider next to each Submaster you can drag.
this slider is called a Intensitie slider you can set the Brightness from that current running sequence.
so if you slide the slider up you should see a light coming up.

and if you use the slider it will also work on the CUE and Cuelist.
so if you drag it once you allways need to controll it.
if you NOT drag it, it should run normal how you programed it.

OK so using the sliders as was suggested makes the lights react when using them in submasters, however they still do not respond to sequences in the cues list. I was able to zip the backup and it is attached here.

Thanks again for the help.
