Hello
can i invert a channel of a fixture?
I got 4 moving heads, same label, same head, but one is another revision and got an inverted dimmer channel.
The 3 old heads are on at 0 and the new at 255. Now i want to invert the dimmer cahnnel of this one Head.

Thanks

Hi Michael

Yes you can do this.

1. select the page
2. page->page settings
3. select "channels" on the left
4. select the fixture with the dodgy dimmer and click the plus
5. select the dimmer channel
6. on the bottom right you can do all sorts of crazy stuff with the patching. you will see the channel number in the edit field, type "/100/0" after the number and basically what this will do is set the minimum value to 100 and the maximum value to 0, inverting the channel. So for example if the dodgy dimmer is on channel 6, you would type 6/100/0 in the text field.
