Hi this is the first time i am creating my own fixture and i am having a few problems, 1st my light is in 16bit mode so pan is channel 1 and tilt i channel 3, in the fixture creater i cant seem to figure out how to write this all up, also for the colours and gobos i do not know how t enter the values in if any one could please help that would be great, or if you have a pre made fixture if possible could i get a copy?, the one that is uploaded on the download forum is not fully working ...

Have you read the manual on how to crate fixtures here http://www.freestylersupport.com/wiki/f ... oving_head ? Many questions could be answerd by reading this.

If your fixture has 16 bit, you have to set both channels in fixture crator. Set the pan 8 bit channel to the first pan channel and the pan 16 bit channel to the second pan channel. I think in your case it will be pan 8 bit = channel 1, pan 16 bit = channel 2. Same with tilt.

For gobo and color set the channels for gobowheele and colorwheele up. Enter the numbers of gobos and colors the fixture has. Then you have tabs in the fixture creator calld "1st gobo wheele", "1st color wheele" and so on where you can enter the different DMX values for the different gobos /colors and select a little picture showing the gobo / color. This is also described in the manual I already mentiond.

You also can use the fixture you found and change it so that it is fully working. Therefore after starting the fixture creator select "open existing profile" and chose the downloaded one. This is also a good way to take a look to an other fixture where you can perhaps see how things work - like the 16 bit pan/tilt or the gobowheele for example.

For further help plese upload the fixture file you created and the manual for the fixture (or a link to it) so that we can take a look and see where the problem is.

I think its better to continue the discussion about the so called not working fixture profile in that topic instead of in a new one.
Thats here.

So for that matter I closed this topic.
