- +It is important to note that Ledtrix and Suntrix don’t have a direct connection to the fixture. If Ledtrix is Setup to have a red in channel 1 then it will send this pixel values to channel 1 even if it is a movement control for a moving head.\\

 With LedTrix we only want to control the colors because it is a tool to display graphics meaning that only 2, 3, and 4 are of interest.\\  With LedTrix we only want to control the colors because it is a tool to display graphics meaning that only 2, 3, and 4 are of interest.\\

 +===== Images, when the pixel is 3RGB colors next to each others . ===== 
 +\\ 
 +The animated images are made as RGB pixels. this means that each pixel has a color that consist of RGB.\\ 
 +When led are used then it is often single color and this look of 3 single leds is not the same as an RGB pixel\\ 
 +\\ 
 +Example: A pixel that are yellow will be made with a red and a green led on.\\ 
 +Looking into the 3 led RGB fixture the eyes will see a red and a green light.\\ 
 +Not the yellow as expected.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +This leads to that the images may not look as expected unless it is real RGB leds that are used.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +Also if the fixture places the colors next to each others like the Revo 4 from American DJ this are to be taken into account.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +This don’t means that these types of fixtures can’t be used but it means that the images don’t looks as expected.\\ 
 +\\ 
 +Also a thing to note is that many fixtures comes with a white led. RGBW.\\ 
 +Images only have RGB information and LedTrix has therefore no white control in the setup panel. This means that this has to be skipped like bellow.\\

 +\\ 
 +The address for each pixel will then look like this.\\ 
 +It is basically a 8 x 8 matrix with all colors next to each others.\\

 +{{:freestyler_plugins:led_matrix_03.gif|}}\\ 
 +\\ 
 +Note: The pixel order may be different. Here it is From Left to Right, Top to Bottom but I have not hat a Revo 4 available and have therefore not been able to verify this.  \\ 
 +\\ 
 +\\ 
 +And in LedTrix the Setup where the white channel are skipped will then look like this.\\
