Flx s24 isolution imove 250s default shutter open

[Rhys Gardiner]

The isolution imove 250s default shutter is open on 11 i dont know why this is but is annoying for shows when they randomly have the shutter open if I forget to program it closed first. Is there anyway of an update to fix the fixture?

Hi Rhys,

Are you using the unit in 16 channel or 8 channel mode?

According to the manual (PDF page 9, manual page 16E/17E), for the 16 channel mode it's correct that shutter defaults at 011 (between "008" and "015" is "Shutter Open") because there's a separate dimmer channel for controlling intensity. If Shutter wasn't defaulted to this, you'd have to control two separate parameters just to get light output from the future.

The 8 channel mode is slightly more odd - there is still dimmer control, but for some bizarre reason it's combined with the Prism channel. Presumably this means you can only use the prism at full intensity. This mode looks like it's designed more for simple clubs, DJs and parties rather than for a programmed performance / event - so I'd strongly suggest switching to 16 channel mode if you're currently in 8 channel mode.

Hope this helps,

Jon

Thank you Jon, 

I will check tomorrow and I am sure it is in 8 channel mode so if I am I will change it.

Thank you for the help though,

Rhys

Thank you very much Jon,

Everything works now and we even set our Ledj lights to strobe while we were doing it. 

Many thanks again,

Rhys
