Robe 600 + 1200LED washes

at the moment we have a limitation in the software that only allows one color picker per channel. then way people usually work around this is by editing the fixture profile and splitting it up into one "mother" fixture and several child fixtures. your channel 10 could then be mother and 11 thru 14 the child fixtures (i.e. ring sin your case)

Thank you for your help could you explain what you mean by mother and child fixtures please

Mother fixture would be a fiture which includes for example pan, tilt, and other features than the colour ring (or might include the first colour ring.
Child fixture would be just one color ring or segment each.

So sorry Im going to sound stupid as i've never done is this way could you tell me how to do this

Mother and child fixtures are a little difficult here because you'd need to make the top part of the fixture from scratch because you can't delete the strobe parameter. Not impossible but would take longer because of the lamp controls.

Here's the other way to Go, with most Eos fixture they convert the separate RGB(W) into single selections. You can go and Edit this so you have RGBW 1, RGBW 2, etc etc for each ring or cell.

Mixing colour can be a like more difficult because you can only adjust 1 ring at a time and as Ueli said the colour picker on works with the first ring. But with macros this is sometimes easier, you can make one that copies RGBW 1 to RGBW 2 etc etc.

Attached is a showfile where I've split the fixtures for you, save you showfile and then merge in just fixtures from this showfile.

You'll have 600's with RGBW 1-3 and 1200 with RGBW 1-4.

No question sounds stupid here I suppose.

You create a fixture with let's say parameters pan, tilt, intens, control or whatever else there is in the fixture. Make sure the parameters are matching the correct Dmx adresses. That will be your mother fixture, let's say channel 10

Then you create let's say four (not familiar with the type of lights u are using) child fixtures. These will be just RGB fixture. Again make sure they are in the correct address range. Channel 11(for example) will be ring one, channel 12 ring two and so on.
So you bring up intensity and position on the parent, and control all the color via childs. The good thing is, all the things like fan and effect grouping will work then.
Hint:
If I have for example 10 fixtures like that, I would number the channels like
10(mother one) 11(child one of mother one) 12(child two of mother one)......
20(mother two) 21(child one mother two) and so on.
Then I would have a group 10, containing all child's of channel ten. This is handy if you want to have them just in one colour.

Hope that helps, but I'm sure Ueli can explain it better

The mother and child is a good method but is sometimes more complicated then needed and can be confusing.

The RGB 1-X is a little easier to understand but with some time making CP and macros you can get what you want.
You can't simply split these fixtures because of the strobe mode parameter. So you need to make the Inten, Pan + Tilt and Lamp control from scratch which is a pain.
