Chauvet Techno Strobe RGB (ST4000RGB)

Hi, I am new to the forum. My church just purchased a Jester ML48.

 

I need a fixture personality file for a Chauvet Techno Strobe RGB. Here is a link to the manufacturer's manual.

I need to set the fixture up to reverse the brightness values. The fixture defaults to 0 being full on and 255 being full off. From what I understand, a virtual channel could be used with an inverted output. Although I notice that the inverted output option can be used independently from the virtual option. Since the Chauvet Techno Strobe has a brightness channel, could my goal be acheived by just using the brightness channel with the invert output option and not bothering with using the virtual option?

At the moment, the JesterML/TL software doesn't use the 'Invert Output' seting from the Fixture Library - however this is logged as a feature request for a future version, reference JES-2489.

 

If the RGB channels on your fixture work the *right* way up, then you can add a Virtual Dimmer to control their overall levels from the desk. In this case, set the fixture personality up so the *wrong* dimming channel on the fixture is called something else, default it to 0, and hide it away under Beamshape, remembering never to change it when you're programming.
