Hi Chas C, What version of firmware are you running on the console? Have you updated the firmware since creating your showfile (or possibly used another console, or Phantom, to create the showfile on originally?)

I've answered this here: http://zero88.com/forum/topic/7085-interchangable/

Hi JB97, Yes they are. You'll get the lowest common denominator of features, although there's not that much difference between the two consoles. The main thing is channel numbers - if you have 200 dimmer channels on the TL Xtra, only the first 24 will get transfered onto the JesterML24 (or first 48 on the ML48). Fixtures, palettes, memories, submasters and soft patch will all work.

Hi Tim, Looks like you've had several replies to your similar topic on Blue Room, but if you have any further questions please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Here you go :-) Petr.ift

Hi Cucolino, I've just sent you an message (to the email address in your forum profile) with the old version of the Android App. A Beta version will be released in our Beta forum as soon as it's available. Our current predicted release date is April for the apps. Best regards Jon

Hi cucolino, Thanks for all your comments and suggestions - I'll try and tackle them one by one! ZerOS 7.8.2 is currently being beta tested. This will close 23 issues. The delay we're experiencing at the moment is due to a couple of things - one being that we are completely rewriting the way that the Co-Processor draws the LCDs to speed this up and make it more stable. Could you expand this a little please? You mean Art-Net into the console, and then DMX out? With the console itself doing nothing else? This feels like a very expensive way of doing this...? I've added your comment to ZOS-2718 - "Option to use a sACN or Art-Net universe as DMX In" The current "DMX In" (SETUP > Edit Fixtures > Patch) only controls the intensity currently. If we changed this to control the whole fixture (so using DMX In address 20, would actually use address 20 upwards for however many parameters that fixture has), would this solve this problem? We could then have a shortcut to auto-populate these to match the normal DMX patch? Would you like to be added to our Beta Testers list, so you can try out the software we're currently working on? There are other threads, similar to this one, in the Beta forum too. Best regards Jon

Hi Tom, I've sent you an email regarding the chase issue. Probably nontracking mode in that case. I'm happy to give you a call and go through the different modes if that's helpful. Or alternatively, you could come to one of our free training sessions - we've rebranded the Leap Frog 48 to the Solution now, but they work in exactly the same way: zero88.com/training No problem! Keep playing, and keep asking questions - it's the best way to learn!

I'm pretty sure that's going to be the problem, but I'm willing to be proven wrong! Give it a go, and let us know what happens!

This is something that several customers have tried and succeeded it at. There are a few topics about this already in our forum... here is one: http://zero88.com/forum/topic/6482-fat-frog-fdd-replacement/

Hi J&J, Here you go: Cameo LED Moving Head 60W.ift Best regards Jon

Hi, Which Robe ColorSpot do you have? The 250AT and 575AT only have a colour wheel, not colour mixing, which is why the colour picker won't work. The same applies for the palettes that you have - the CMY palettes will only be available to fixtures with CMY or RGB colour mixing. Have you gone into SETUP, clicked "Auto Menus" and "Create Auto Palettes" after patching the spot fixtures? This should create some palettes of the fixed colours on the colour wheel - let me know if it doesn't and I can send you an updated fixture profile.

Here you go: ServoColor770 and ServoSpot600.ift

They are both coming, more news soon...

Hi Texasflood, I'm struggling to find a manual for those fixtures. Please can you post a link to the manual for each of the fixtures, or scan in the pages that describe the DMX personality? Many Thanks

It will - so definitely wait :-)

Hi Ian_SDC, It's completely up to you, but it would make sense for all your dimmers to be using the same Dimming Curve - unless you have a specific reason for not wanting that.

If you address the LED bar to DMX 150, this is what you end up with: 150 - Dimmer / Control 151 - Red 1 152 - Green 1 153 - Blue 1 154 - Red 2 155 - Green 2 156 - Blue 2 157 - Red 3 158 - Green 3 159 - Blue 3 160 - Red 4 161 - Green 4 162 - Blue 4 So, instead of patching it onto the console as a single device, you can trick the console into thinking it's five separate devices (as I have split them up above) by patching a dimmer channel on DMX 150, and then four LED Dimmers addressed to 151, 154, 157 and 160. For the dimmer channel, you can either take up one of the main console faders if you have one spare, or you can patch it as another fixture on the Multi Functional Keys. Once you've patched everything, go into SETUP, press "Auto Menus" and select "Create Auto Palettes". This will create a load of premade effect palettes for you.

How would you like this to be merged with the DMX being processed by the console?

As we move into 2015, we've restructured the Zero 88 Community Support Forum to make it easier to use, and quicker to find the correct category for new topics. Below is a list of the updates we've made. Network & Data Distribution". New category called "Product Support - Software" has been created. “Software Releases” has been renamed to “ZerOS Software Releases”, and has been moved to the forum homepage, under "Product Support - Software". “Phantom & Remote” has been renamed to “ZerOS Applications” and has been moved to the forum homepage, under "Product Support - Software". "Fixture Library & Fixture Editor" has been moved to the forum homepage, under "Product Support - Software". "Phantom Jester" has been moved to the forum homepage, under "Product Support - Software". “Beta Test” has been renamed to “Software Testing and Beta Releases”, and has been moved to the forum homepage, under "Product Support - Software". (Please note - this is a hidden forum only available to those involved in software development and testing). "FROG 2" and "Leap Frog 48 & 96" have been moved to “Discontinued Products”. Various forum descriptions have been rewritten for clarity. If you have any questions, please post them below.

You can on Jester ML and TL, but not on the standard Jester software

It can have upto 30 fixtures and 200 dimmers, all patched across 512 DMX channels

Hi all, There is a conversation in the Beta Software forum about how we move forward with this. I'd like to keep that conversation going over there for those involved in development and testing (which ziglight and keredyelesob both are). However, just to sum up this conversation - this will be returning to how it used to be (so Colour Palettes only contain colour parameters etc) but we are looking into a way that brings the additional functionality in a much simpler, quicker and more flexibly way. I'm going to close this topic for now. Feel free to open up a new topic for any new feature requests or ideas.

Hi barefootcoder, This shouldn't be too hard - go into "program mode", select a memory (using the up and down arrows), move the faders to the intensities you want, and press the "program" button (the glowing one!). Now move the faders so you have a different lighting state, and press the "program" button again. Now, go into "run mode", make sure the "Memory Master" fader is pushed up, and press the glowing button (which should now be green, and act as a GO button) to switch between the two memories. Hopefully this helps?

Hi keredyelesob, We've been investigating this, and found the problem. Added as ZOS-5897, this affects Solution / LeapFrog 48 & 96 consoles only.
