Hello,
Longtime lurker here, I have finally began my journey from audio to lighting. I have been experimenting and learning how use basic par fixtures and moving heads with QLC+ and I absolutely love it. The company I manage warehouse space for owns 16 import 5-c Pixel bars and I have been striking out everywhere trying to find a profile or anything remotely close. Additionally all my attempts to build it myself have gone up in smoke/frustration. I have attached a scanned .pdf of the document that came with them.
Thank you in advance to anyone willing to help or lead me in the right direction.

Welcome Lurker
Nifty fixture you have there ... and 32-pixel zones, battery-powered, and wireless DMX. Impressed!
Start looking at this one: FOS Superstorm in the annexe.
With a little effort, you can adapt this fixture profile to yours. The number of DMX modes is also quite impressive. Some would think that this is a knockoff of the Astera Hyperion tube.

I have attached what I have achieved so far using the FOS superstorm profile that was linked above. I am having issues understanding how to program the 12-channel mode. I have figured out all the other modes except the 12, I am having trouble understanding how to accurately program channel 3 within the 12 channel information on the manual.
Thank you in advance and sorry for my delayed response.

I cleaned up your Fixture Defintion a bit (changed the naming of your Yellow Channels and put them together with Red, Green Blue and White), removed some unused channels, added the channels you need for 12 channel mode and finally i did add 12 and 80 channel mode (tip: if you open the QXF file in a File Editor like Notepad, you can save a lot of time by using use copy paste. You could use this for also adding 160 channel mode).
As i do not own such sophisticated fixtures myself (so i cannot check what they really do) and the manual does not provide much information i only completed a few steps of the newly added channels.
Should be enough however to show the direction for you to go.

Thank you so much. This will help me tremendously, I look forward to looking at what you changed / added to learn more about these things!! Side note: they are EXTREMELY affordable fixtures from BLUE SEA LIGHTING.. I believe they came out to $200 each after shipping etc.. worth every penny honestly.
