Pixel Range ARC R

Hi folks:

I have gotten a couple pixel range arc r heads to play with -- they are really cool but im having a terrible time getting them on the board properly -- i can make them work as a group of desk channels, but thats a bit clunky. they each have 4 channels (dmx addresses) Red, Green Blue and Amber in that order -- I called tech support for some help and the guy recomended the Thomas Pixel Par 4 cell item in the fixture schedule. Unfortunatly, once i got it patched and generated auto menues, nothing happens -- no color pallet and i cant get them to come on -- my hog 3 upgrade is ordered (finally) and on its way (should be here next week) but id like to use these guys on sunday if i can -- can someone suggest a way to make them work properly?

I tried the fixture library builder but im getting easilly confused by that and the section of the manual that covers building a fixture library is not yet done

Im on the hog 2 pc

Thanks

  • HI Folks:

    Just wanted to post an update - the ARC R's worked great on the stage today. I got them connected to the board and figured out what i needed to get the colors mixing (i hadnt hit the color button)

    I programmed our service like normal with a bunch of cues etc, and then took one of the remaining faders and stuck a bunch of different color cues on it (with lables) and just called them manually - via goto and a number to change the colors on the fly -- I am already figuring out that im gonna have to totally re-learn how to program and run shows especially once i get the full load of LED fixtures and the moving lights this fall

    Thanks for all the help -- i really appreciate it a lot
