The configuration of the lamp panel can be done in 4 basic ways.

1: Shutter, strobe and intensity and lamp control are on separate channels.
2: Shutter, strobe on same channel and intensity and lamp control are on separate channels.
3: Strobe, intensity and lamp control are on separate channels and shutter are not defined.
4: When no shutter or intensity channel is available.

In Fixture Creator as example the configuration are:



Shutter channel is 3
Closed value is 0
Open value is 255

Strobe Channel is 4
Strobe off is 0 to 15 so it is set to 0
Strobe slow to fast is 16 to 255
So Low is set to 16, Med to 135, High to 255

Intensity Channel is 5
From no light to full light 0 to 255.

Lamp Channel 6
Lamp off value is 234
Lamp on value is 133



The functionality are then straight forward.



Bulp “On”, Intensity “Max”, Shutter “Open” and there will be light.

Bulb.
“On” and “Off” will set the value in this control channel to the on and off value.
The “OFF” has to pressed 4 seconds before it is switched off.
This is to avoid the user from by accident to turn off the bulb.
With some fixtures it takes long time before the bulb can be turned on again. (It can be a long time without light and a disaster for a show)

Shutter.
“Open” and “Closed” sets the on and off value for this channel.
Additional it sets the strobe channel to its off value. Here the value is 0 on channel 4.
The light are set to the level set in the intensity channel.

Strobe.
“Low”, “Mid” and “High” sets the values in this channel and thereby the flash rate.
The fader goes from 0 to 100% and it is related to the low and high value.
This means 0% is equal the value 16 and 100% is equal the value 255
To turn off the strobe either Shutter “Closed” or “Open” are to be pressed.

Intensity.
This is only available with a fader and here the 0% to 100% correspond to the value 0 to 255.


“Black Out”
Black Out is in the main window of Freestyler. It has the same function as Shutter Open and Closed.
This is a way to control the shutter on all fixtures with one button.

Here the strobe are on same channel but have different values for the functionality.



Shutter and Strobe Channel is 4
“Closed” and Strobe off value is 0
“Open” and Strobe off value is 255
Strobe slow to fast is 16 to 225
So Low is set to 16, Med to 120, High to 225

Intensity Channel is 5
From no light to full light 0 to 255.

Lamp Channel 6
Lamp off value is 234
Lamp on value is 133

The functionality are then straight forward.

Strobe.
“Low”, “Mid” and “High” sets the values in this channel and thereby the flash rate.
The fader goes from 0 to 100% and it is related to the low and high value.
This means 0% is equal the value 16 and 100% is equal the value 225
To turn off the strobe either Shutter “Closed” or “Open” are to be pressed.

Intensity.
This is only available with a fader and here the 0% to 100% correspond to the value 0 to 255.

Strobe Channel is 4.
Strobe off value is 0
Strobe slow to fast is 16 to 225
So Low is set to 16, Med to 120, High to 225

Intensity Channel is 5
From no light to full light 0 to 255.

Lamp Channel 6
Lamp off value is 234
Lamp on value is 133


The functionality are in this case intelligent.
It uses intensity to give the shutter effect and the at the same time control the off value for the shutter.

And it sets the intensity value to Min. In this case the value is 0 on channel 5.
“Open” sets the “off” value for Strobe channel. In this case the value 0 on channel 4
