I have just purchased a flx s 48. And I am trying to rationalise my various fixtures, mostly generic Chinese unbranded, is there a readable list of fixtures with attributes available, as I do not want to duplicate fixtures already created by you, or will I have to guess my way down the list?

thanks for any help

Hi Steve,

Really glad to hear you have just purchased a FLX S48.

There is no list of fixtures detailing their channel maps, however I would recommend using the Fixture Editor software for PC to help you out. If you haven't downloaded it already, the Fixture Editor is contained in the Fixture Tools package which can be downloaded from the link below...

https://zero88.com/library#download

Once installed, run the Fixture Editor, and then open the file that can be downloaded from the link below...

https://zero88.com/fixtures/legacy-library/Legacy library (gft41.0)/UNBRANDED/_ALL UNBRANDED.ift

This file includes all of our existing Unbranded fixtures. If you work through the properties of each fixture, you may find one with the channel map you need.

Hope this helps,

Edward

Hello Edward

I am working my way through the ALL_UNBRANDED.ift and I opened up an Image Manager. Is this a stand alone program that I can use to add gobo pictures to my moving head profiles?

Thanks

The Image Manager is just part of the Fixture Editor tool. You can add gobo images that will display on the FLX by attaching the images for each gobo under the Detail tab of the appropriate Beamshape attribute for the fixture within the Fixture Editor software.

Hi Don,

As @kgallen explains, the Image Manager is part of the Fixture Editor, not a stand alone program. It can be used to show you all the images used by fixtures in the current fixture file.

To edit the gobo images of a gobo parameter, go to the properties of the gobo parameter of a fixture, and then go to the details tab at the top. You can then edit the details, including loading images to a detail.

Hope this helps,

Edward
