    look at the SGM Palco in the examples . They are ( i think ) 8 channels but you see one DOT only in the screen . I'm sure there is a way to " blind" the channel . Look at SGM PALCO

    Hi Edgar,

    it is a little more complicated with your fixture - because it has 1 master intensity for 4 pixels.

    I suggest you use a 2x2 RGB fixture and patch it always on the second DMX address of the fixture and use a 1 pixel intensity fixture that you always patch on the first address of the fixture.

    So you have 2 fixtures in pixelmad for one (4 pixel) fixture in real world.

    If you like to go a step ahead you might want to write your own fixture for the intensity channel - setting it to a fixed value <fixed output="255"> or linking it to the master intensity <output="MASTER_INT">
