Modify or fix a fixture profile in eos - ETC eos

Thanks Charlie this helped a lot

Sorry to bug you but I have a Par Chinese fixture that is listed as 11 channel but is missing two channels and everything is jumbled. I was able to reorder but when I added the missing channels, macro and macro speed (rate 4) EOS would not let me save it saying there was DMX channels sharing inappropriately. I suppose I need to find a generic with 11 channels and fill them but there must be a way to add a channel or two. Can you help?

Sure I'll always do my best to help. I'm a little confused as to what you mean. If you try and explain it different it may help me understand. From there I'll be happy to advice.

@ I found a generic light but aside from being jumbled it was missing a few channels. Also 16 bit pan & tilt had two numbers on each side of the slash. I changed the first to the appropriate channel, but is the second note the 2nd channel-fine adjustment or does EOS assume the following channel is the fine adjustment?

@ I'm still rather confused by what your trying to explain, but I'll give it a go. So if you are talking about the pan/tilt fine in the fixtures display then yes, the comma separates the normal pan and the second number is the dmx channel of the pan fine. I think this is what you mean. I am happy to keep discussing this until your problem is solved. As I say I'm not entirely clear as to what you mean.

@@chaz58. I have a fixture that is supposedly in Eos but there are not enough channels in the profile. Is there a way to add channels or does one need to build from scratch. I am actually a student and have used EOS to run dance concert, but am attempting to run a show with Chinese knock offs which as you know often have no manufacturer name and just a dmx channel list.
