Fixture Builder Hog4 on PC

Guten Tag,
offene Frage:
Ist jemals jemand für die "Erschaffung" des Fixture Builders in der Hog4 on PC bezahlt worden?
Der hat nen Mordsgeschäft gemacht.

Im ernst:
WIE funktioniert das Ding?
Es ist vollkommen egal, was ich mache, ich bekomme immer eine mehr oder weniger kryptische Fehlermeldung.
Überwiegend "fehlen" oder passen irgendwelche Offset-Werte nicht.
Aber egal was ich auch anstelle, habe ich den einen Fehler bei einem Kanal weg, schwupps der nächste
Kleines Beispiel:



Bis zu dieser Fehlermeldung funktionierte der Strobe Kanal.

Aus dem Handbuch der Lampe:


Im Fixturebuilder bei Hog4


Was genau will die Kiste von mir????

Ich versuche den LightmaXX Vector 150 Spot zu bauen, weil der in der Library nicht drin ist.
Und außer einer ständigen Verweigerung das von mir angelegt Gerät endlich mal zu speichern passiert,... nichts.
Es gibt keinerlei Hilfe oder Hinweis, WIE man den die Fehlermeldung beseitigen könne.

Tschuldigung für die klare Aussage, aber das Ding ist so wirklich richtig schlecht gemacht...

    The error dialog is telling you that Strobe/Shutter/open is a discrete, meaning it can only take a single DMX value, not a range like you are specifying. Hog works by turning real world programmed values into DMX. When the desk goes to turn a discrete into a DMX value it would not know how to choose from a range of 0-7. It doesn't matter that the mfr will accept 0-7 for that, Hog must see only one.

    First try:



    After delte the higher range for Open it seems THIS Channel can be store.
    Okay,... now i can´t set the Shutter on open at the end of Channel....

    But then...:


    What does this "offset" means?
    If i add a range for the color -the colorwheel in the lamp NOT switch in out, it is possible slide them in and out.

    After change from "slot" to "continuous"



    Next try...:


    I can set "value" at all options i have/know.
    Nothing works...

    So a very simple question:
    How does this Fixturebuilder works?
    All "answers" i get from Hog4 give no sense....
    And,..... only post a Fault Popup does not help.

    If i work without manipulate any Channels i get also this Fault Popups....

    In a 4-6 years old Hog4 Video i have see the "old" Fixture Builder.
    In this i can give  "real-world-datas".
    But in thie version i have -latest software version- it seems this option is gone.
