Symptoms/Issue
Certain fixture types are not able to be pixel mapped
Description/Explanation of Issue
There are a few reasons why a fixture might not be working for pixel mapping
- The fixtures are not assigned to the plot
- The plot is using RGB color mixing for HSI or CMY fixtures
- The fixtures do not have color mixing functionality, like a color wheel.
Fix/Solution
- The fixtures are not assigned to the plot
- Make sure the fixtures are assigned to the plot you wish to use in the programmer. There should be a text for PLOT X under intensity and color mixing in the programmer window.
- The plot is using RGB color mixing for HSI or CMY fixtures
- If the plot window is outputting RGB values to fixtures that do not have RGB parameters pixel mapping will not function
- The fixtures do not have color mixing functionality, like a color wheel.
- Fixtures with only slotted color or preset color functionality can not be pixel mapped.
- the fixtures need to have an intensity parameter and in order to get color the fixtures need to have CMY or RGB parameters.
