Ability to lock channels to only 100% on or 100% off.
« on: November 20, 2015, 01:16:59 PM »
I have a bunch of objects that I have in my display that are electronic and can’t be dimmed.
I am so afraid that I am going to set a element to something other than on or off and burn it up.
Could there be a way in the model properties to lock a channel to DMX on or off only?


Thank you

Al

You can use the Dimming curves for this.   Create a file with 256 lines in it.  The first 128 are 0 and the second 128 are 255.      Thus, anything more than half would pop it all the way on.  Anything less than half would drop it to 0.
