Default intensity & Home intensity

[Zulu]

Hi.

I have an FLX S24, and am a novice to moving lights. I have a pair of Chauvet Intimidator Spot 155.

I’m wanting the default or home state to be dark. It’s currently defaulting to 100%.

does anyone have experience of how to fix this?

many thanks.

You can set the intensity of a fixture then RECORD HOME will allow you to reprogramme the Home or Default values.

I have patched the Chauvet Intimidator Spot 155 in both modes, and on FLX S this is correctly defaulting to 0% intensity, and correctly homing to 100% intensity.

If the fixture is defaulting to 100% on your console, this intensity percentage will be shown in yellow in the Output window. If this is what you are seeing on your console, this confirms the fixture's default values have been edited in your show file.

If you wish to reset all fixture defaults back to their library values, tap DELETE, and then tap the Home icon. You can then confirm you wish to remove all custom default values.

Please let us know if you have any questions.
