handling CwMwWwI fixtures with Paradigm

Hello,

we would like to change a hallogen downlights in auditorium with LED fixtures wich could reproduce "red *** effect" - that was strong wish from customer.

hopefully we were able to build a fixtures with x3 type of LED source Cool White - 5600K, Neutral White - 4000K and Warm White - 2400K. To drive fixture we using x4 DMX Ch - CwMwWw + Master Intensity. from Eos desk disered "RedShift" work fine, dimming like a filament buld.

But on site we have Paradigm contro installed 6 years ago l and I have stucked with a problem handling CwMwWwI (or WwMwCwI) fixture. From LD software I could control all parameters independently, but I dont have any instruments to do the same from Touch Screen! I could set function to the fader to control Cw and Ww but not to Mw. Color Temp fader also operate with only Cool and Warm LEDs.

Probably I missed something, could anybody help me to find a lost function?

Hi Oleg,

What version of Paradigm is the system currently running? We added in the ability to control Medium White from a fader in v4.0.1, so I suspect they're running something prior to that. Updating is an option as long as they have P-TS7 touchscreen hardware. The P-LCD hardware cannot run v4.x and higher software, so the hardware would need to be replaced in order to update.

Alternatively Applications Engineering may be able to create a custom script that can provide the Mw functionality in the version they're running. They can be reached at aesupport@etcconnect.com
