Dim Fixtures on CC-150 Card

Issue

The fixtures that are powered off my F-Drive 12 CC-150 cards are very dim.

Solution 

This is caused by the output current being to low. The output current of every card can be configured between 200-700 mA. For F-Drive firmware versions v1.1.3 and newer, default output current is 200 mA. For F-Drive firmware versions v1.1.2 and older, default output current was 600 mA. This can be configured per output channel in Concert.

Here is the current requirement chart from page 28 in the installation manual

ETC Luminaire Current Requirement 
ArcSystem Navis 100 Fixed White  600 mA
ArcSystem Pro One-Cell Micro White or Fade to Warm 200 mA
ArcSystem Pro One-Cell Small White or Fade to Warm  600 mA
ArcSystem Pro One-Cell White or Fade to Warm 600 mA
Irideon FPZ for F-Drive or Irideon WLZ for F-Drive 450 mA
Source Four Mini LED for F-Drive  350 mA
