Lena Posted February 1 Report Posted February 1 Hi guys, it's Lena from Leipzig! ♥ I've got some new fixtures at work: Eurolite TMH-W555! 🙂 But when I tried to hook them up to my FLX S24, I couldn't find a suitable fixture file for this light. Any ideas how to proceed? 😭 Thanks for your help, guys! Lena Quote
kgallen Posted February 1 Report Posted February 1 Hi @Lena If you can attach a pdf of the manual and say which modes are a priority for you, I’ll try and find some time today/tomorrow to write one for you. Quote
Lena Posted February 1 Author Report Posted February 1 Hi ♥, oh wow, thank you so much. You're the greatest. Here's a link to the manual: https://images.prolighting.de/manuals/51785920-Anleitung-eurolite-led-tmh-w555.pdf The 48ch mode would be perfect, but 24 or 36 would work as well. Thanks in advance for your help, you're the greatest! 😊 Lena Quote
kgallen Posted February 1 Report Posted February 1 Hi @Lena Here you go, all three modes (phew!). Everything is in there including all channel "details". You will find lots of channels under Colour and Beam(shape) so you'll have to rotate through the "pages" of them on your S24. However there is a limitation in what I've created. The FLX S24 will support multi-cell fixtures and the TMH-W555 looks like it could benefit with being defined as a multi-cell fixture for the 36 and 48 channel modes. However the Windows Fixture Editor does not support this (as it's a new console feature). You would need to request such an enhanced fixture definition from Vari-lite (or write one using GDTF which I'm not capable of!!!). I'm not sure if the colour palettes will work in the 36 and 48 channel modes as I've not picked any of the RGBW 1/2/3/4/5/6/7 as "primary". But they should work fine in the 24 channel mode. You'll have to see how you go on in 36/48 channel mode and come back to me if it's a little unworkable - I would need you to tell me which segment 1-7 you want to be "primary". Just put this file on a USB stick and use Load on the console. When you patch it, it will show in red text as a "non-library fixture". Enjoy! (ps there is a lot of info I've had to enter so if you see an error or spelling mistake, let me know) eurolite_tmh-w555.ift 2 Quote

Lena Posted February 8 Author Report Posted February 8 Hey, so I tested the show file during the final rehearsals on Friday and on two shows today. They work perfectly. Without you, those fixtures wouldn't have been used in this production. Thank you SOOOOOO much, you're the best! ♥ ♥ ♥ All the best from Leipzig Lena 1 1 Quote
