Enabling use of Colour Picker


Doodling

Recommended Posts

HI Zero88,

We're trying to set up our RGB LED Parcans (Pulse 56 i think they're called) to use the colour picker on the Orb XF but, Being not too clever, we don't have a clue where to start. We have a basic understanding of the fixture editor but we don't know about setting up for the colour picker.

Thanks in advanced

Hi Doodling,

 

First, you need to patch the LEDs into the console.

 

Press SETUP on the desk, and then choose 'Patch Wizard' - it will take you step by step through what you need to do (select manufacture, select model etc etc).

 

Once you've done that, click 'Auto Menus' and then select 'Auto Palettes'.

 

Then come out of SETUP by pressing the SETUP button again.

 

You can open the colour palette window by pressing SHIFT + COLOUR together, or you can type 'View 1 ENTER' which will take you to the palettes view on Desktop 2.

 

Hope this helps,

Hi Thanks for the reply. We managed to get it working. It was an issue with the program we'd created rather than the desk commands. Literally spent hours messing with all the new colours and the Fan function. It's a novelty to have something working how it should for us!

Thanks again
