So, I have to 2 Chauvet Colorband Pix Mini light bars set to 18 channel mode. I have them patched in as 12 "Colorband Pix cell." When I open up the patch window and select each one individually with high light on, they light up in the correct order. If I select them all, in order and create an effect with an offset, the effect does not chase in the correct order. I can select 1 thru 12, but when I offset the effect by putting in 0>330 in the offset table, the lights go in this order: 2,3,4,5,6,1,12,11,10,9,8,7. Is there something I am missing when I am selecting these lights? This happens no matter how I select them, keypad, patch window, or group.
Your problem is likely in the way, or direction, the fixtures are hung.
When you choose any other mode other than 3 channel, the fixture starts at one end and assigns consecutive channels from there. (AND, it is NOT described in the manual as to which end is #1)
So you have to pay attention to which end of the physical fixture is virtual fixture #1. And orient it to the side you want it. And then do the same for the second fixture.
