    Hi, I have a project with VL1000s both the TI and TS versions and am struggling to get them to come on. They pan tilt correctly and the TS version i can control with my Avolites Titan desk once i manually use capture to turn dimmer to max. Colours, gobos everything is correct. The TS version this doesn't work for, as soon as i use my desk they dimm off. Have checked that my desks fixture profile and the one in Capture correctly match up with dimmer channels as for channel for each fixture. The Vl500s, Robe Robins etc are all working correctly. I was advised by another capture user to put lights into external dimmer mode which i have done, but this has not solved the problem. Could u please see if u can help me.

    Hej!

    Once you select the fixture and go to the selected items properties you will see that there are two modes, internal/external dimmer, but also two patch rows. You have to patch them both in order for the dimmer to be controlled. By the arrow you patch by default the first and main patch information, so in order to patch the second you have to type in the dmx address. No worries, it will work right away.
