Pixel Mapping

Hi all,

I've been struggling with the setup pixel mapping with my LED fixtures. I've went through the tutorial and I am batting 0. The LED fixtures that I am trying to use for pixel mapping are 5 Elation Opti-Tri Pars and 4 Chauvet Colorband PIX. The Colorband PIX channel modes are 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 18 or 36 and the Opti-Tri Pars channel modes are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, & 7. I've tried the colorbands in 36 channel mode and the opti-tri pars in 6 channel mode.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Eric Starling

Are you trying to use the pixelmapping function? Or using manual controls on some but not all segments of the fixtures?
If it's really about the pixelmapping function: if the console is older than maybe 4 years, did you at any time install the pixelmap installer? How did you assign the pixels in pixelmap, did you use patch by channel or by Address? If you try to use colors in the pixelmap, did you bring the intensities up in live?

In addition to Ueli's suggestions, I have found that I often it helpful to create a color palette for fixtures that have the all of the color parameters at 0. This way the fixture intensities can be at full, but not outputting color data that is instead coming from the the pixel map.

I am trying to use the pixelmapping function. I do have the ION console updated to the latest software as well as pixelmap installed. I have tried both patching channel and address. All intensities are up to 100% in live.
