I need a personality file for this (text) device. The sooner the better. I would prefer to have it tomorrow, but I understand if you can't make it!
Here's a link to the manual: http://www.hqpower.eu/downloads/4/vdpl304lfgbnlfresd.pdf
Thank you in advance.

hi,
Personality file as attached. Most channels are on the 'customs' page.

Thank you for your quick service.
Unfortunately, when I open the fixture, it is mentioned as a strobe and the unit itself doesn't react to Visualdmx.
Temporary I use an generic 8 channel dimmer fixture (which does work, but not great). I Hope you can adjust the personality file so I can use the fixture more easily.

Did you allready have had the possibility to fix the personality? Thank you in advance.

Actually the personality file is correct, however, the VDPL304LF is just quite an odd fixture. I mean, it is not anything like a scanner, yoke or other 'typical' effect. So VisualDMX gets a bit confused and thinks it is most likely a strobe, which it isn't either. But VisualDMX considering this fixture to be a strobe is just cosmetic, I would worry to much about it.
Nevertheless, VisualDMX should be able to control the light without any problem. Have you had a look at the 'Custom' tab, that is where i have put most of the fixture's controls. Is there anything specific that doesn't work?

Okay, that makes things a bit more clear. The customs tab works indeed, but I still can't manage to program sequences with the fixture. In the "help" file there is mentioned a "intelligent editor", but I can't find/select it anywhere, the only thing that pops up is the sequence editor (which looks quite the same). Is this a fault in the help file or am I doing something wrong?
-
sorry, the help is outdated here. The Intelligent editor is merged into the Sequence Editor.
