ericnagel Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 This may exist and I just don't know what it's called, but I have a couple channels (that have "falling" icicle lights and strobes) which I only want to be able to turn on or off - no twinkle, fades, shimmer, etc.Is there a way to limit a channel so that the only options for it is either an "on" state or an "off" state?

Guest wbottomley Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 The new firmware will have that option when it's released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Until the firmware is released you can do the following.1) Select the entire row of the channel that you want to be on/off only.2) Select the "Foreground" tool.3) Select "On"What this will do is turn any cell in that row that has an event in it to "on". So, if you accidentally did a fade down on that channel, it would be converted to an "on" command. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This feature has been on the wishlist for a while. Don's trick is the way to be sure you've avoided any effects other than on and off.JeffIt's there in the software for version 3.0.0, but you also need an appropriate control (either a Gen3 controller or a pre-Gen3 with Gen3 firmware). I don't really know much about the hardware, so I don't even know if that hardware/firmware is out yet, but here's how you would do it from the software point of view, assuming you had appropriate hardware and firmware:http://www.lightorama.com/help/index.html?configuring_units.htmCheck out the "Dimming Curves" section on that page.

Guest wbottomley Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Bob... I found that screen but it's hidden very well. Maybe the documentation needs updating. Go to hardware utility, click configure, in the lower right-hand side click advanced configuration.That little booger is tucked away in a corner.
