    Hi, I'm new to QLC+. I working with the new Robe minime projector head and im having problems using efx to move the head. the exf is controlling ch2 and 4 which are the fine pan/tilt channels instead of the ch 1 and 3. Pleas how can i change this. I have created the fixture using the editor according to robe manual.

    Hi,

    open the fixture editor, and check the control byte setting for channels 2 and 4 (they should be "Fine LSB"). For channels 1 and 3 they should be "Coarse MSB").

    I've had the same problem last Friday :)

    Hi, Thanks i checked the setting and it was set the way you have posted. 1 3 are MSB and 2 4 are fine LSB. I'm also having trouble with scenes,whenever I create a scene the light only jumps to the scene setting for a second and then back to what ever was before. I'm using artnet btw. :)

    Can you post your fixture definition and workspace?

    I checked your fixture definition, and it seems ok. I quickly created efx using your definition and all 4 channels were changing.

    By workspace I mean the qxw file.

    My test was almost exact as yours. It works for me:

    Open EFX editor, push test run, open DMX monitor (the green icon in the top toolbar) watch the values. If I ever mess with Simple Desk, PAN TILT do not change anymore (that's a bug).

    I propose that you reopen the workspace, and avoid playing with Simple Desk when testing the EFX.

    Then you should create some widgets in the Virtual console and start the opearate mode (the green triangle button in the top right corner).

      I think I fixed the problem with SimpleDesk. If I am right, next version will be OK.
