Apollo Spectra3 color scroller

Can you just use the Smartcolor profile without the Fan channel?  I have both of those, but on an express system, and the frames are not that far off from each other.  You could then just calibrate the scrollers to line up the same.

There are 2 workarounds for this issue:

The Min and Max values of this Scroller match - which looks odd (compared to other Scrollers):

Frame 1     Min = 0      Max = 0

Frame 2     Min = 16    Max = 16

Frame 3     Min = 32    Max = 32

Frame 4     Min = 48    Max = 48

And so on….

Via the Fixture Editor –

If you change the Max value to 1 less than the Min of the next Frame the Scroller appears to work (can hit all of the Frame values):

Frame 1     Min = 0      Max = 15

Frame 2     Min = 16    Max = 31

Frame 3     Min = 32    Max = 47

Frame 4     Min = 48    Max = 63

Frame 5     Min = 64    Max = 79

Frame 6     Min = 80    Max = 95

Frame 7     Min = 96    Max = 111

And so on…..

Another workaround is to build a Custom Scroller that has 16 frames.

This is on our list to address in software.

I assumed that if I was using both Smart scrollers and spectra 3 scrollers in the same show, I couldn't callibrate one without effecting the other. But from Anne's post on another thread it appears that the calibration needs to be done for each unit and your scheme would work

thanks
