Can't get blackout to work

Post by Lance »

The device is communicating with the lights but for some weird reason the blackout feature does not work, the value 0 on the fixtures is not OFF, and when i close the program the lights stay on. I would appreciate any help..... YES I AM A NEWBY!!

hej lance.

There are Differnt Ways to Give a Blackout Value to a Fixture file.
This depant on the Channel that a Fixture haves.
IF the Fixture only got RGB channels Then RGB is the Blackout value.
If it haves a Intensitie Then the Intensitie channel value is Blackout.
and if the Fixture Gots a Shutter Closed then Shutter CLOSED is the Blackout value. :)

And to change the value is you close Freestyler.
Thats possible if you set all the Values how you like to have it when freestyler shutsdown.
Then go to "Edit" Press "Apply Shutdown value on exit" and all the Current Vlaue will be saved as a Shutdown value.

also look on the Freestyler wiki , you can find allot about freestyler there.
