Hi,

Saturday i had a problem with pan/tilt shape and martin krypton: some fixtures made "tremble move"... strange!

My question is why!?

Maybe because some move-shape are in 8bit and not 16bit!?
(so, if it's the reason, is there any shape in 16bit or all in 8bit?)

thanks for the help!

ps: and don't have "gobo CONTINOUS rotation control", only "gobo rotation"!
i can rotate a gobo, but only to put in a fixed position, i can't let the gobo in simple automatic rotation (like simple flower)... is there any bad profile, or new profile to do the rotation? (my profile: krypton 14ch)

Can you explain in more detail?

If only some had problem then I would suspect problem at fixture - perhaps wrong settings?

RE: Gobo rotation. Often Fixtures will have a choice between indexing and continuous rotation. Sometimes this is determined by the rotation channel - ie. 0-50% index, 51-100% continuous and sometimes by the gobo channel - ie. 0-50% = indexed gobos and 51-100% rotating gobos. Refer to your Krypton manual to find out DMX values and attributes.

/edit: Is so easy to find out I've done it for you:

It is selected by Gobo wheel.

0-16% Indexed
17-41% Rotating
41-82% Shake
82=100% Continuous scroll.

Gobo rotate controls either index position, rotation speed or shake speed depending on selection above.

ok! for gobo, i use the palette, not the directly by the wheel... and if the gobos are selected in "indexed range" it should be the reason of my problem! i will try to change!

for the move, all fixtures are moving like an old 8bit scan! (it's my az2000, but not my krypton's, i don't have moving head... you think it's bad or dead krypton for you?)

thanks!
