HTP/LTP unexpected behavior when slider channel monitoring is enabled
Posted: Sun Jan 28, 2024 10:31 am
Hi,
Unsure if it is a bug, or bad configuration.
Created a separate show file to illustrate my question down to the basics using two generic RGB fixtures with separate dimmer channel. Both have the dimmer channel set to LTP (-> still need to understand if this is bad practice, but for me it seems to be more intuitive).
Scenario:
- Start the show; go to VC
- Press 'Green' scene (optionally, but handy when sending the info to the 3D visualizer)
- Press the button '50% DIM'
Outcome:
- Fixture 1: lights up (channel 1 = 128 = Expected)
- Fixture 2: remains off (channel 17 = 0 = ... less expected)
Now ...
When I clicked in the scenario first on the 'X' (reset channel override) on the slider that is monitored, all is working just fine.
Note that the 'X' never is marked as 'active/overruling' so I would think the last intensity/dimmer command overrules the fader.
Thanks for your advice!
