Hello, could you explain in a video the EFFECT channel in the profile builder and what kind of functions this channel is supposed to act on? I noticed that we can use it in the BEAM FX as a FEATURE

Hello,

It has been suggested to us in the past and it is will be considered going forward with Profile Builder development. If or when this will be implemented, unfortunately I can not say for certain.

For now, the 'Effect' feature can be manually assigned to a fixture. There are a couple of methods for this:

1) Edit the profile within the Wolfmix Fixture Builder.

- Go to the fixture library and find your fixture
- Select the Edit fixture button, then choose the desired Mode (if relevant)
- Select the channel you want to assign
- Press the channel icon (top left, next to the channel number and type)
- Scroll to page 2, then select Effect
- Set an Off and On value for the effect
- Save your profile and patch it into your project

2) Edit the channel assignments for a fixture(s)

- Go to Settings > DMX Values > Settings (Beam Editor)
- Select your fixture
- Scroll the second encoder to the 'Effect' feature
- Press in the second encoder and set the relevant channel
- Use the third encoder to set the DMX Min value to 0 and the DMX Max to value 255
- Use the fourth encoder to set the Off value to 0 and the On value to 255
- Repeat for any other fixtures you want this to apply to
- Back out to the HOME screen with the arrow at the top left

Hope this helps! :)
