Associating scroller-fixture-with-colour-detail with lamp channel for move-on-dark


Recommended Posts

Posted

I've created a scroller fixture that includes the details of the colours versus DMX addresses (mid/endpoint). This allows me to use the colour auto-palettes for the scroller.

 

However I don't seem to be able to associate the scroller (as a separate fixture with it's own profile) with the associated dimmer channel for the lamp, so move-on-dark can be supported.

 

Can I associate my scroller fixture with it's associated lamp/dimmer channel, or do I need to create a custom multi-part "Lamp + Scroller-with-colour-detail" fixture?

 

Maybe there is a "better" way to be able to exploit the auto-palettes with a gel-based scroller on FLX?

 

For completeness, my fixture definition is attached (Chroma-Q CQ1D).

 

Thanks,

Kevin

As a follow-up I built a multi-part Lamp+CQ1D and it works as expected.

 

Still interested though if you can associate lamp plus scroller when they are separate fixtures - but that's not an enhancement request if not!

It's only possible to assign these units in the fixture profile itself, not once they are patched as separate fixtures on the console
