fixture profile request for an LED moving head fixture

Hi there,

I'm only able to open the 1st, 4th, and 5th links attached. Would you be able to convert the 3rd and 4th links into PDFs?

Additionally, is there any type of manufacturer/brand name for this fixture? I'd like to see if this profile already exists in current software. 

Best,

Therese

Hello, Ok I was able to find the link to the fixture. Here is the link to the fixture on ebay. No brand name.

Thanks for your help.

Not certain that is going to help as there is no manual there.

I've taken your 5 original attachments extracted the contents of the emails and put them into a pdf file

There is a certain dejavu about this as on another post an hour ago for a fixture request I said I had a cheap Chinese light with almost the same profile,  this one is probably the same fixture as the one I have, the gobo wheels even match with the pair of coloured ones.   I have a profile for it that I created but an ETC made one will be better.

The problem with these lights is that they all look alike on the outside, but they're being knocked-out by a few different shops who all put their little spin on things. (Like this one having a prism)

Your best bet is to take the basic profile in the console and tweek it to your specific version. There are too many no-name fixtures.

I agree and it can be worse than that,  I bought a second pair of the same on the outside ones from the same store and with the same DMX chart in the box. 

However the actual DMX patch  was significantly different with Pan and Tilt being 16 bit on the original pair and 8 bit on the second pair and then various other bits swapped over. 

What was interesting about the one on this post is the DMX chart does match (it looks like exactly) my original pair so I do have a profile for it.

Mike, I have found you really have to look at the info where you are buying the fixture from. I won't buy it if they do not post or offer the channel layout. Knock on wood so far these have done well.

Another trick they are doing is saying 60W in their listing but if you look at the info and it might say only 30w LED so they are trying to get people to buy thinking they are getting a 60w LED when they are not.

You are definitely right about these all looking alike. And it is true from what I have heard that there is only a few companies that make the parts and the other companies buy there parts and put their name on the fixture. So there are a bunch of the same fixture at different prices. It is crazy.

I actually bought them in a physical store and got them unpacked and tested although they only tested them with a typical 16 fader dmx controller. I was in full buyer beware mode !!!

They've actually been reliable (mine are 90W allegedly and look like it comparing with other fixtures) and work well and cost a fraction of the price of the "proper" ones.

Just next time (about to buy 4 more) I'm taking my laptop with Nomads on it to make sure its the same actual dmx profile as the paperwork in the box says it is, as not having fine pan/tilt has been annoying.

I'm looking for to the actual ETC profile as a few of the parameters I couldn't think of anything sensible to match them up with so I have 4 parameters set as  barndoor1 thru 4  that do the more obscure things and just have to remember which one is which!!
