KL FRESNEL 8FC

Hello,

today i had a closer look at the KL8 FC Fixture while we Focused our lights.

The Manual says not 100% clearly what the default Values should be.
But the current Fixture in the Lib is not adjusted correctly.
And i have some Tips to spare.

What i noticed in 7ch Mode:

- Color Temp. range should be from DMX24-85 (2400-8500K)
   -> currently the Range is wrong and resultes in wrong Kelvin Values. (See Page20 and 24)
   -> having a default of 6000K (like on Page15) would be ok. Because the Value of 0 as default resultes in no output when bringing the Fixture to Full and that is quite disturbing.
- The Dimmer Curve Parameter probaly should be a Control Channel
-> ijust wrote Elation today to ask them, but it totaly looked like one to me.

Running v3.1.3b8 on Lib v3.1.5.11

With kind regards

Hello, i asked Elation about setting the Dimmer Curve or what ever can be found in the "Control Channel"

The Answer was:
"you would only need to select the value for about 10 sec.
then the light will change the settings"

Therefore i would make it a Control Channel and not a Dimmer Curve Parameter.
