Using TCP commands to control single channel values

[giraffupus]

Hi all,

I have the TCP commands working, but I don't see any way to control a specific DMX channel value. I run a planetarium with about 100 LED fixtures over art-net and I'm trying to find a way to have fixture specific control. Is this possible using TCP commands?

For example, let's say I wanted to set my 50th fixture, which has channels 150, 151, and 152 for R, G, and B values. Is there a command to set channel 150 to a value of 255 and turn just that one fixture red?

Thanks for any help. I'm looking at a variety of solutions and Freestyler is so close if I could just get per channel control set up.

Update: For any future persons, you can signal individual channels using the "command" commands, from 319-339
For instance sending these commands in this order
fsoc320255
fsoc332255
fsoc320255
fsoc319255
fsoc319255
fsoc337255
virtually enters 1@100 [Enter] into the internal freestyler command pad and sets channel 1 to 100. Each line of that is:
Command 1
Command @
Command 1
Command 0
Command 0
Command Enter

If there is an easier way to address a single channel someone let me know, but this works for my needs.

Nice to know.

If you have the time then please make a small note eventually with a small programming example on the wiki.
Eventually also with a shot how to get started.
