mac250 krypton

Hi - writing with some urgency - have a show this weekend beginning friday 1600. I have got in some mac250 kryptons. I've loaded the personality from the library - but though i have pan/tilt - the lamp is on - looking at the wheel group i cant seem to find any way of opening the dimmer on ch 2. Have read the mac manual and it seems that the dimmer has to be up - i think - but without some output i cant really tell if everything else is behaving as it should.

 

The mac is set to 14 channel operation - not the extended set up- i'm confused enough as it is. Sorry if i'm missing something really obvious- i've just spent 6 hours riigging and 3 hours trying to figure out the macs and its now 01.45 and my brain is fried and there is the day job at 0800 to look forward to.

 

some clear concise advice would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

Select the fixtures, then press Home, this will set the dimmer to 100% and open the shutter etc. You can check the dimmer level with FIXTURES selected - the dimmer level will be shown on the middle wheel.

 

Also make sure the Grand Master is up and Blackout isn't active.

 

If you're still having trouble, please save your showfile and post it here so we can have a look at it.
