how to patch RGB pixels + white pixels strobe light and 3D circular turss

Post by orbenezra20 »

Dear tech Support,
I have LED strobe light that contain two sides of 24 pixels RGB and 24 pixels of Cool white pixels in the middle. how to patch it in the patch editor? (attached image of the strobe light).

second question: how to patch 20 LED tubes lights in a circular truss that will show ok in the 3D mode?.

many thanks,
Ben.

Hi Ben,

Welcome to the MADRIX Forum.
I have LED strobe light that contain two sides of 24 pixels RGB and 24 pixels of Cool white pixels in the middle. how to patch it in the patch editor?
- You can either patch it with single RGB fixtures + 1 Channel fixtures for the white pixels or you can create a corresponding fixture with the "Fixture Editor" with different orientations.
- You can also send us the DMX chart of the fixture to info[at]madrix[dot]com and we can help you to create the required fixture.
second question: how to patch 20 LED tubes lights in a circular truss that will show ok in the 3D mode?.
- Do you have a CAD drawing of the installation? It is possible to create the MADRIX Patch from a .CSV file using the "Import Fixture List" function in the Patch Editor.
- Of course you can also patch the circular shape pixel by pixel (as it is), but due to allignment on a square grid all shapes with angles unequal to 90° result in a "deformation" in their size in the patch. That means you might need to insert spaces between each of the pixels until you achieve a better approximation of the shape.
- In order to help you with the manual placement of fixtures for your patch, you can also load a background image in the MADRIX 5 Patch Editor (In case you want to patch it pixel by pixel).
- Depending on the effects, you still have the option to patch the fixtures as a straight line with the constraint that your patch will differ more from the reality. In that case the MADRIX 5 preview won't work as a visualizer, it should be seen as a technical preview.
