Venue Thinpar 64 & ColorDash Fixtures

A quick look at the manual indicates that it is very close to the existing "PAR 38" in the library. So, you could patch it as Generic RGB LED 8B and run it in 3-channel mode, or copy and edit the PAR 38 personality to add a dimmer channel (and possibly some other small changes) and run it in 7-channel mode.

Because the Eos/Gio/Ion software has a lot of control over colour/intensity, etcetera - you probably won't find much advantage in the 7-channel mode, to be honest.

Thanks!  That worked like a charm.  I assume I can use the same generic profile for the Venue Thinpar too?  I am going to try it tomorrow (I don't have the right DMX cable for the ficxture).

I can't seem to get the Venue Thinpar to patch and work.  I tried pretty much all the generic RGB fixtures.  Can someone point me in the right direction, I am beyond frustrated and tired of this.  Thanks.

One more headache, the fixtures work great when I have them plugged into my FOH chauvet datastream.  Once I take them to my datastream on the stage they don't work.  Can someone tell me what I might be missing?

have you tried creating a fixture using fixture editor?

I mean our DMX splitter.  I thout about the universe thing too, but I have some chauvet colorstrips running off the on stage DMX splitter that work just fine.  They are on universe 1 (address is 200) so I am not sure what the issue is.
