Robe Robin100 Ledbeam - Dimmer on subfixtures

Postby tomv » 30 Mar 2013, 22:58

Hi All,

I'm currently programming a show with 45 Robin100 Ledbeams. They have 3 zones for controlling the leds.
But when I select the subfixtures I only can control the RGBW, it seems that the dimmer is not controllable within the subfixtures.
I updated the personality to the latest version (12/2/2013) but it still remains the same.

What I would like to do is that I can make an dimmer effect with the shape generator on the 4 led's in the middle en let the outer ring remain at 100%. Is this possible? Looks not that difficult to me? I'm working an an pearl expert, V6.1.

Thx already for the support.

I originally created these with virtual dimmer on the cells but it was removed because the fixtures would not light when the master was located.

To put this back in:

Edit the fixture in personality builder
Add the dimmer attribute to mode '1x RGBW cell, 8 DMX'
In that mode remove any channel mappings that have been automatically assigned to the dimmer
Select the RGBW attributes in that mode and set the virtual controller to dimmer
In the multi-cell modes make sure that there is no dimmer attribute link in the cells

Hi there,

Is the pearl expert running Titan V6.1 using R20 personalities? Cause I can't find the .d4 file of them?
It seems that the search-function is also disabled :(

I created a .d4 file (started from the d4 from website) and putted into the D:/personality folder, but the fixture won't appear in the fixture patch.

It needs to be in D:\TitanData\Fixture Libary

The personalities folder is intended for custom files but currently is not working.
