collage access.

Your instructions posted on the websight talk about GLobal modifier 1 needing to be at a DMX value of 134 to access the collage function. Then says Modifier 1 at a value of 1 to set up the configuration I am using.
The language your using on the websight doesn't compute to what my Hog II PC stage output says.
Can you put the instructions in the form relating to what the output parameters say on them. Otherwise I am going in circles and getting knowhere.
The parameters on the global section are as follows:
cyan/magenta/yellow/Fx1/Fx2/Fx2m1/Fx2m2/Fx2m3/masksel/masksize/
maskfade/fadetop/faderght/fadebot/fadeleft/keyx1/keyy1/keyx2/keyy2/
keyx3/keyy3/keyx4/keyy4/keyxrat/keyyrat/viewmode/viewxpos/viewypos/
viewzpos/ctrlmode/ctrlvalu/
I need to know if Fx2m1 is modifier 1 ect...
Do you have any conversion charts that convert the language for us lighting /non video guys?

OK now I see the problem. the FX1 parameter in the Global section will only dial up to range= 129 edgecolr whick is as far as the parameters go to.
Sounds like a library file mistake.

I did go into the file and it does say exactly what your chart says it should. However there is no way to access above the 129 dmx value.

I'm not seeing this Jeff?:confused:

The collage is not present in the ROM library of the latest H2PC. If you download the new profiles from the FPS website and paste the new lib.lib into your showfile it should come up (make sure nothing is patched yet)

I'm seeing it just fine on my H2PC this way.

Make sure you are not reverting to ROM library version when you patch (select the "X" for no)

Hope this gets you over the hurdle:)

thanks for the help. I had to rebuild the patch with the new library, then merge my show into this new one. The collage generation works great.
The only thing I see wrong is with the intructions and the parameter layout for H2PC. The color wheels do the Modifiers and the FX1 does the collage. Yellow picks what part of the grapgic to project and cyan picks the grid setup for the number of fixture you have.
Too bad the instructions couldn't be written in these simple terms for all to understand.
So here is is again for those who don't speak video.
the Parameter Fx1 goes to full which is labeled collage.
then cyan goes to level 1 in my case for 2 fixtures side by side
and yellow selects which part of the graphic each fixture will be projecting.
a good starting point is to select a grid on the yellow wheel to help alignment first.
