How do I build this fixture in WM?

Post by DJSchmidi »

I've tried to build this in both the online editor and stand alone on the WM1. The problem is that the WM1 only addresses the first two bulbs, and the remaining 22 remain static. Example, color FX and Wolf effect work when pressed, but only on the first two bulbs.

I think it might have something to do with "splitting" the fixture, but the WM never prompts me to do this. I also see what looks like a beam/matrix in the online editor, but there is no documentation so I don't know how to make it work.

My WM is running V1.2.2. Ideally, it would seem logical to have one fixture in WM that is the war white bulbs x12, and a second being the RGBs x12.

The fixture is by LaLuceNatz and is called Wall Washer LED

Thank you for your assistance!

Hello,

Without seeing the fixture that you have created, I could not say for certain what the issue is- however I have quickly made a version of the fixture profile which should work well for you. You can unzip the .ssl2 file attached here, then upload it to the profile builder to compare with the version you have already, or you may of course use this one yourself!

Kind regards,
Will

I may add a little "setup instruction" to the profile....

First: once the profile is uploaded into your cloud, you will find the profile name in your CLOUD folder. After syncing with Wolfmix (click on blue arrow) it will - again- be found in the Wolfmix CLOUD folder when adding fixtures
Second: when loading the profile, you will be asked if you want the profile to be "SPLIT" - confirm by pressing the YES button. You will then see 24 lines (linked) in the Fixture Setup. Select line -13 up to -24 and assign this to another Group.

You now have the 12x RGB sections on the "previous" assigned Group (for Color control) and the 12x Whites separate on the later assigned Group for individual control now.
