Hans,

normally the Martin 1220xr scanner requres (in mode 1) 10 dmx channels.

Actually, I pulled up the 1220xr manual and in mode 1, the 1220xr uses 11 dmx channels, not 10. The channels are 0-11 offset, so if the base channel of the fixture is set to DMX channel 1, pan would actually be channel 10, not channel 9.


how could that happen, it couldn't be so difficult to control a scanner with the lanbox!!

No, it's actually quite easy. Sounds to me like the "fixtures" you defined aren't set properly or something has been changed in the patching.


Odd are, the DMX channel assignments of your individual single fixtures you were trying to use to control it, are not set to the right channels for your fixture.

If you need a mode 1 fixture definition for the 1220xr, I'm sure Fokko can do it easily... If not, I could also do it.


Jon
