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.

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.

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sorry, the help is outdated here.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.
