    martin stage bar - RGBAW

    xml to use this is something along the lines:

    Code:
    	<Fixture menuname="martin RGBAW" uniqueid="MAR6" excelexportid="MAR6" pixelwidth="6" pixelheight="1" output="CUSTOM" comment="Martin RGBAW" channelcount="30" channelsperpixel="5" orientation="TOPLEFT">
    		<channel index="1" output="RED" />
    		<channel index="2" output="GREEN" />
    		<channel index="3" output="BLUE" />
    		<channel index="4" fixedoutput="0" />
    		<channel index="5" fixedoutput="0" />
    	</Fixture>
    this goes into the fixtures.xml file.

    this sets the aw channels to zero.

    This would have helped me alot when I had to patch 200 Pixellines 110 (RGBA)... - I did not dig into the XML at that time - I will give it a try next time.

    I finally did a single channel patch with a seperate mix area for the Amber-Leds as Intensity only fixtures.

    Worked well in the end - but needed quite some thinking and smart excel tables...

  3. martin stage bar 54 rgbaw control

    We have been using the following for the amber / white control.
    It allows for separate control of the amber white led with some interesting effects.

    We set up 1 fixture for rgb control, 1 for amber, 1 for white.
    We used red for white control, green for amber.

    Hope this helps.

    Okay... Found out from Vendor that they are going to control these in "5 channel mode" This means that each 6 cell strip will be 5 DMX channels.
    I can't change this to 30 channel mode because it is a co-headline tour and the other LD wants them in this other mode. No big deal, I'm just using PixelMad to simplify things. Is this the right editing to make this fixture right?

    </Fixture>

    you are treating the entire fixture as one pixel - so it should probably be-

    <Fixture menuname="martin RGBAW" uniqueid="MAR6" excelexportid="MAR6" pixelwidth="1" pixelheight="1" output="CUSTOM" comment="Martin RGBAW" channelcount="5" channelsperpixel="5" orientation="TOPLEFT">
    <channel index="1" output="RED" />
    <channel index="2" output="GREEN" />
    <channel index="3" output="BLUE" />
    <channel index="4" fixedoutput="0" />
    <channel index="5" fixedoutput="0" />
    </Fixture>
