Thread: Mix-Layer select DMX control

    Mix-Layer select DMX control

    I'm probably being blind, but i cant seem to find any documentation on the Mix-Layer select DMX spec.
    Could anyone tell me where it is? I'm sure i've seen it but doesn't seem to be with the others at the end of the manual.

    If I remember correctly it is in the "What's new" document that Richard posted.

    You need to enable on Catalyst control 1 o more interfaces.

    MIX LAYER SELECT 1-16 Ch (for mix 1)
    MIX LAYER SELECT 2-16 Ch (for mix 2)
    MIX LAYER SELECT 3-16 Ch (for mix 3)

    etc.etc.


    Each channel in the fixture selects whether a layer is active or not in that mix.

    Channel in Mix fixture Selects Layer
    1 Layer 1
    2 Layer 2
    3 Layer 3
    4 Layer 4
    5 Layer 5
    6 Layer 6
    7 Layer 7
    8 Layer 8
    9 Layer 9
    10 Layer 10
    11 Layer 11
    12 Layer 12
    13 Spare
    14 Spare
    15 Spare
    16 Spare

    For each Layer you can select or deselect that layer from the mix.

    DMX Value in channel
    0- 10 No effect. Default.
    11- 127 Deselects layer from mix
    128- 255 Selects layer in mix.

    Hog2 Personaility for Mix Layer Select

    I've attached a Hog2 personality that seems to work. patch one for each mix you need to switch, as Roberto says above (many thanks btw) and off you go.

    The text in the TXT file needs copying into the _lib.lib file as normal..

    Cheers
