FOS Pixel strip

Hello.
I need a profile for this fixture in 14 channel mode please.

Hello Fredrik,

I checked your forum history and it looks like you mostly use Cuety, but since you did not mention the software I attached both versions

`user.personality.zip` is for Cuety, and `fos.xml.zip` is for Cuelux. Don’t forget to unzip the file and place it in the correct folder.

Small note for the Cuety version: Cuety is quite limited in available fixture functions, so not all 14 channels could be mapped directly. If you also want control over the program background RGB channels, you can patch an extra generic RGB fixture starting at channel 11. Cuety will show overlapping red values, but that is fine because those channels are not used in the custom personality.

Hope this helps!

Hello. and tanx!

Hello Fredrik,

The remaining controls are mapped like this in the Cuety personality:

* Program 1 = mapped as Gobo Fader
* Program 2 = Custom 1 Fader
* Program 3 = Custom 2 Fader
* Program Size = mapped as Zoom fader
* Program Speed =mapped as Gobo Rotation fader

Channels 11, 12 and 13 are the background RGB color controls of the internal programs, and channel 14 is the DMX to ArtNet mode parameter.

Those last channels could not be properly exposed inside the Cuety personality because Cuety has some limitations regarding available fixture functions.

The workaround is:
patch the fixture itself starting at DMX address 1, and then additionally patch a generic RGB fixture starting at DMX address 11.

So:

* Generic RGB Red = CH11
* Generic RGB Green = CH12
* Generic RGB Blue = CH13

Cuety will show overlapping channels in red, but that is fine in this case because those channels are intentionally left unused inside the custom personality.

This way you will have access to majority of controls of the fixture on Cuety

Ok thanx.
Strange that the program faders dosent do anything.
I understand that tha last background channels doest, work, thats fine.
Im just in need of running the diffrent inside programs in the remotebox.
THey have like 77 difrent programs you can use, but i cant get anyone to work now

Thanks for the update

I just attach you a screenshot showing how the DMX channels should be patched for this fixture (assuming that the fixture is patched starting from dmx channel 1), and with that setup the internal program channels should work correctly.

Hope this helps!
