READ ME:

To simplify integration with third party lighting consoles and control systems, PixLite® Mk3 supports partial configuration file (.conf) imports.   This supports the ability to upload partial .conf files to configure specific elements of a PixLite® Mk3 device’s configuration while leaving the remainder untouched.

This trigger profile provides a standardized two-channel control arrangement for PixLite® Mk3 when using SHOWTime™ - the internal playback engine included on all PixLite® Mk3 devices.

DMX Channel 1 controls live intensity.
DMX Channel 2 selects either Live Mode or one of 24 SHOWTime™ triggers.

Modify the start channels and universe input source within the PixLite Mk3 configuration interface.

This also allows lighting console operators to patch a known DMX profile without needing to manually explain or set up the full trigger definitions before or during install. We’ve provided a download link to a ready to use partial .conf file below for triggering.

HOW TO USE:

Lighting Console:

- Patch the DMX fixture profile or import the GDTF of the fixture file from your lighting console fixture library to the relevant channel.

- You will see an option for intensity (brightness) and an attribute for "Gobo" or similar as defined by your console manufacturer.

- Set brightness to full (or desired value) on ch1 to get maximum output.

- By default, PixLite® will be set to Live Mode this allows any eDMX (Art-Net/sACN) being directed at the device to be mapped to the pixels.

- Use ch2 to trigger the SHOWTime™ playback engine within PixLite® to play back files from the microSD card.

Level 0 -> 9 = Live Mode, Levels 10 -> 19 = Trigger 1, Levels 20 -> 21 = Trigger 2, etc.
