Hi there
I decided in the end to buy the MyDMX2.0 controller
The first problem I am having is that my scanners don't have a Fixture Profile (I pretty much knew this would be the case)
There is an 8 channel profile under TAS for the Mini Ultra-Scan 2 200MSD hoever this does not match mine at all, they must be the version 1
I have determined some things about the scanners but can't find any useful tutorials on using the Library Editor to create a profile
The address table printed on the scanners says they are 6 channel but using a manual controller I have figured out they actually only use five of the six channels as follows. However I can't tell what DMX values (0-255) I am sending on the channels to get the following effects. However for the gobo and colour, each 'trigger' value is evenly spaced across the range of the slider if you get what I mean
TAS Mini Ultrascan MSD200
ch1 pan
ch2 tilt
ch3 gobo
0 = open
1 = circle
2 = 16 spokes
3 = stars
4 = 8 spokes
5 = large star
6 = wide spokes
7 = bars
8 = concentric circles
9 = dots
10 = gobo wheel continuous spin
ch4 colour
0 = white
1 = cyan
2 = purple
3 = green
4 = pink
5 = magenta
6 = yellow
7 = orange
8 = red
9 = dark red
10 = continuous spin colour wheel
ch5 shutter
0 = open
1 = closed
2 = strobe slow
3 = strobe medium
4 = strobe fast
5 = strobe very fast
The shutter settings are not evenly spaced between 0-255. I get open shutter for about 25-30% of the range, closed shutter for the next 25-30% or so, then the four strobe speeds evenly spaced on the slider in the remainder of the range
Can someone nice please help me make a profile for my scanners?
It would be much appreciated and I promise to buy you a pint or two if I ever meet you
