Hi!
I'm a novice, so don't kick me.
I have 3 rgb pars and I'm trying to build a virual console which supposed to control the colors and which PAR is on or off
I created 3 scenes and 3 buttons in solo-frame which light up all 3 PARS in corresponding color:
1. Red
2. Green
3. Blue
These functions work fine.
I want also to have an opporunity to disable any of my PARS using separate button.
"Toggle PAR 1"
"Toggle PAR 2"
"Toggle PAR 3"
So I created a scene for every of my PARS which intended to send "zero" to Intensity channel and binded these functions to buttons, but then i switch to operate mode, click "Red" (Pars start lighting Red), click "Toggle 1", but it doesn't work. DMX monitor shows that Intensity channel on 1-st PAR is 255.
Please help me to figure-out what i'm doing wrong.
[sorry for my bad english]

Hey,
the problem is that your channels are following an HTP behavior (read http://www.qlcplus.org/docs/html_en_EN/concept.html).
So either make your channels LTP (this may have unwanted implications) or use collections for the color scenes (can also have unwanted side effects) or use an extra dimmer channel. Last option is preferred. Most fixtures have a Master dimmer or you can create one using a submaster slider and collections (there are lots of threads about that in the forum).
