American DJ RGB LED par64

Post by spikie »

hello,

i have a weird problem.
When i use the fixture creator and make the RGB led par im using everything goes wel.
Then i go to freestyler and set the par to the right adress.
Every channel is working like it should, red green blue shutter(strobe).

So i started last time with more using submasters so i did make programs for green, blue, red ( to the max and then on fade) and trying to work with the BCF2000. This works perfect. But then i was thinking the strobe is something like to to get on my bcf2000, so make a program. 0->255 with fade and set it up in my submaster.
now the weird stuff start..

i give some colour and even touch the strobe fader and its goes in fade straight to 255 and stays there. so i touch the fader for strobe a little bit, freestyler start counting and i lose the control on it. only way to stop is put down all the submasters and click it with the mouse back to 0. ( the strobe function, the colour faders are just working as always)

Now is my question did i make a wrong program, is my fixture not right? Does someone else ever had the problem like this?

hopefully someone would help me.

Greets,

hi
everything thats happins sound realy normal to me.
Because a Led par that haves a RGB (strobe) will work as:
Red = HTP
Green = HTP
Blue = HTP
Strobe = LTP

HTP channels can be controlled with the SMintensitie slider as a Brightness slider.
LTP doesnt use this

To solve you problem is to add more sequences like Strobe Slow, med , high (i allways use the override buttons for this) but the Submaster can also be used.
But to get the Value back to "0" if you stop the SM can be done if you enable the feature "Restore value" on the CUE window.

and a other example with a Ledpar that has RGb, Strobe and Dimmer. will work as:
Red = LTP
Green = LTP
Blue = LTP
Strobe = LTP
Dimmer = HTP

More info about HTP : http://www.freestylersupport.com/wiki/d ... tp_and_htp
and "restore value" : http://www.freestylersupport.com/wiki/p ... k_sequence
