  DTS XR2000 SPOT CMY No Light with Software Version 2
Posted by: tom@akofx - 23-07-2023, 05:27 PM - Forum: LAMPY General Questions - Replies (7)

After updating to the latest software release of the Showtec Lampy 20 2U it was not possible to switch connected DTS XR2000 SPOT CMY to a light output.
I went through all (!) parameters of one or more XR2000 several times - and changed all (!) parameters (using the jog wheels). Pan and tilt work, but a light output was not possible.
Remarkably, the highlight function at the top of the toolbar worked successfully.
(So the highlight function knows the dimmer channels of the XR2000 and can also control them - why not using the jog wheels?)
I then went back to software release 1.0.5 - loaded several DTS XR2000 SPOT CMY and on the first try... light output was there!
In the software version 2 of the Showtec Lampy, a few values were displayed for Intensity - which I didn't really know what to do with (the value dimmer was offered twice, for example - why? Actually even 3x with values that are not understandable.) ...
hmmmm...

Dubbink, Rene Lohse, Rens, Roel Vugts, Serge Douguet, Shatox HD, Sven Bakker, Weerden, Yves Vrijhoeven
New Versioning Scheme
We have changed the version number scheme to semantic versioning, meaning Lampy version numbers will look like “x.y.z. (aabbcc32)”
X is the major version number which will be increased only when major changes are introduced (such as Multicell and the UI-Rewrite in v2).
Y is the minor version number which will be increased when features are added.
Z is the “Bugfix” portion of the version number which will be increased when the release only contains bugfixes or as we see fit.
The text in the brackets points us to a specific version of the code an update has been built with.
Known issues
• Fetch-mode indicator is missing
• Only one of each group can be added to a MagicSheet at the moment
• IP-Adress fields are not cleared when no cable is plugged in and DHCP is turned on
New Features
All-New and better-performing User Interface
• Multi-Touch support
• Multi-Cell Fixture support
o Fixture Items show Main. Sub UserID if more than one sub fixture exists for type
o Double-clicking on an instance selects/deselects all other instances of this fixture
• Long Press on an empty item records the item
• Long Press on Pool Items (Group, Preset, Fixture) and Playbacks opens a context menu
• Fixture Items always show Dimmer Value in Dimmer Bar
• If a Fixture only has Pan / Tilt but no other visualizable info, display Pan / Tilt visualization differently in Pool Item
• Sliders now display a tooltip with the slider value while being dragged
• Better support for external screens (no fixed resolution, better touch / hot-plug handling)
o You will most likely need to calibrate your touchscreens. You can use the Shift + Magic Wand buttons on the Frontpanel and keep them pressed for 2s to do so
• Magic Sheet editing is now done using a toolbar after switching the Magic Sheet View into edit mode using the magic-wand dialog
• Added a clock to the internal screen
• Added a Virtual Keyboard with switchable Layouts
o Double or long pressing on the shift button triggers caps-lock
• Added a new “Add Preset FX” Tab into the Add Effects dialog which makes it easier to create absolute effects using presets.

New CIE Color Picker
• Color conversion for up to 9 LED Colors
• Encoders in the color picker can now cycle between different color modes for encoders
• Emitter coordinates need to be set in the fixture library for the conversion to work perfectly, however, we have pre-defined values in case this information is missing. It is advised though to measure the brightness of each color and enter the values into the fixture library’s Color Mixing data (Color Mixing button in Library Editor).
• Color picker displays the biggest color space of selected fixtures as highlighted.
o If selected fixtures only have a color wheel, show the total color space spanned by filter colors as a highlight (given provided data in the library)
• Color picker shows points for individual fixture colors. These Points are limited by the individual fixture color spaces
• Color selection in the color picker applies the same color to all selected fixtures, regardless of LED composition (distributes to channels accordingly for max overall color intensity)
• Setting Colors using color picker encoders or faders always sets the target color in the color picker and follows the above color distribution. Individual color channel values can be set using the encoders in the Values table.

Fixture Library and Editor
• New Atlabase Multicell Library
• Added many new Attributes to Function Database
• Updated Encoder Mapping for these new Parameters
• Proportional Ranges: Proportional Ranges are used to compose a range of values into another range of values and may contain a prefix and suffix to display such, e.g. for Strobe Frequency
• All-new MultiCell Library Editor
• Add xyY editing for additive color mixing systems
• Added a confirmation dialog when selecting fixture types from the factory or user library when adding fixtures that would overwrite the fixture type in the show library
• Added a confirmation dialog if a fixture type in the destination library should be overwritten when transferring fixtures

Playbacks
• Playback Faders Dimmer Priority can now also be set to HTP
• Playbacks with only one cue can now be moved/copied to scenes and vice versa
• Cues can now be renumbered by double-clicking in the Cue # column
• Added Go-To Function to Cuelist View
• Changed cue list concept of "End of Cuelist" to work on both ends of a Chaser
• Template page can be disabled temporarily in Show Settings -> Ui Settings
• Shift + Master Go cycles through Playback Pages in forward order; Shift + Master Pause/Back in backwards order
• Clicking on a cue in the cue-list view while record is active now adds the option to insert a cue before the selected cue
• Master Fader can be assigned as Grandmaster in Show-Settings -> UI. Go and Pause/Back buttons control selected Cuelist when Grandmaster is selected as Fader Mode
• Update Cue dialog has the option to insert a cue before the selected cue
• Long Press on the Playback Page button will go to the previous page
• Added default Record Mode setting to Show Settings.
• Playbacks can be selected for the master fader in five different ways:
o Click Select in a cue list view after clicking on the Playback Item
o Click Select in the long press menu of the Playback Item
o Using the Button Action “Select” of a Playback
o Copying a Playback onto the Master Fader Item
o Moving a Playback onto the Master Fader Item

Virtual Dimmer and Virtual Strobe
• Implement Virtual Strobe
o Fixtures with a single dimmer (virtual or not-virtual) but no shutter channel can now also add a virtual strobe
o It enables both synchronized strobing, as well as random strobe
o Add Virtual Strobe to the library editor
• Changes to Virtual Dimmer
o Virtual Dimmer now also supports fixtures with HSI and CMY as well as CIE Luminance
o If a Fixture has multiple color mixing Systems, RGBxx is preferred for Virtual Dimmer over any of the others.
o Virtual Dimmer now also supports all other Additive Mixing Colors

Other Changes
• Added auxiliary LED colors to fixture item preview representation
• Reworked MagicSheet Edit Mode
• Context Dialog should show only one button to enable/disable the magic sheet
• Groups now indicate if they contain fixtures in the current selection (in parts or fully)
• When no fixtures are selected and direct action is disabled, selecting a preset for the first time will select all fixtures in that preset
• After booting, the previously opened show will be started automatically
o Add option to ask for a PIN when a show is autostarted
• Fader Values are now stored in the show file (Note: Only the value of the faders, not the playback state of the cue lists is stored)
• Top Toolbar Button size has been increased for easier usability
• Long Press on MFF Mode Button will go back to the previous page
• Desklock Passwords are no longer limited to numbers
• Pressing Record repeatedly will cycle through record Modes
• Added Lampy Re-Load4
o Only the dongle will unlock network data output
o Changed the maximum number of universes for Lampy to 6
• Keypads and Virtual Keyboard have been reworked and now more reliably set keyboard focus and close when pressing enter on the keyboard.
• Added a Maintenance Tab in System Menu
o Added Frontpanel Test to Maintenance Tab
• Frontpanel Elements are displayed in a text box when interacted with
• LEDs cycle through R-G-B-C-M-Y-W automatically. The drop-down menu has been removed.

• Added ability to search in Dmx Output View based on name, universe, and fixture number
• Added the ability to filter based on specific universes in Dmx Output View, by holding the filter button pressed. This filtering can then be disabled/reenabled by toggling the button

Changes in Behaviour
• Software / Library Update dialogs now force a reboot of the console.
o Dialogs display a popup indicating that the console will need to be shut down or restarted after the update and users are asked to save the show when clicking on "Install". They can still cancel at this point.
o Update Dialog can not be closed or skipped out of after the "Confirmation" Page
o Done Page shows "Shutdown" and "Reboot" buttons respectively.
o Some UI Updates to improve readability in Software and Library Update Dialogs
o Added a Countdown with a progress bar to restart automatically after the update is completed successfully (20 seconds)
• Previous / Next soft button behavior has been changed:
o Previous / Next cycle through "full" fixtures incl all instances
o Shift + Previous / Next cycles through instances
o Long Press on Previous selects all fixtures
o Long Press on Next selects even / odd

Bugfixes
• Position/color attributes release before dimmer is released completely
• Move In Black starts FX even if a fixture is not yet dark
• Effects running in the wrong direction
• Copying Preset onto existing Preset does not properly update reference values that are being output
• Deleting Fixtures from a group could result in wrong selection states

• Keyboard Layout is now being restored properly after startup
• Fixed predefined FlyIn / FlyOut effects – Tilt was not in sync with the Dimmer
• Fixed an issue where the patch of certain fixtures changed after re-opening a show file (I.e. ADJ Mega Bar LED)

  Choosing the Right Car for Students: A Comprehensive Review
Posted by: DaltonTrumbo - 26-06-2023, 02:42 PM - Forum: LAMPY Tutorials - Replies (5)

As students navigate their academic journey, many find themselves in need of reliable transportation to commute to and from campus. Selecting the right car for students requires careful consideration of factors such as affordability, safety, fuel efficiency, and practicality. This article aims to provide an informative review of the best car options available for students, ensuring they make an informed decision.
When it comes to affordability, students often have budget constraints. Opting for a used car can be a cost-effective choice, as it reduces the financial burden of depreciation. Additionally, compact and fuel-efficient models tend to be more affordable both in terms of initial purchase price and long-term maintenance costs.
Considering the rising fuel costs, choosing a car with good fuel efficiency can save students money in the long run. Look for cars with hybrid or electric options, as they offer excellent fuel economy and reduced environmental impact. Compact models with smaller engines also tend to consume less fuel, making them an economical choice for students.
For students, practicality is key. Consider the car's cargo space and seating capacity to accommodate friends, study materials, and sports equipment. Additionally, vehicles with good maneuverability and parking assistance features can be advantageous in crowded campus areas. A reliable and easy-to-maintain car will minimize disruptions to students' daily routines.
The Ford Fiesta is a compact car that offers good fuel efficiency and nimble handling. It comes with modern features, including smartphone integration and advanced safety options, making it a tech-savvy choice for students.
Choosing the right car for students involves considering factors such as affordability, safety, fuel efficiency, and practicality. Models like the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, and Ford Fiesta offer a combination of these attributes, making them suitable options for students. Ultimately, students should assess their specific needs, budget, and personal preferences before making a decision. By selecting a car that aligns with their requirements, students can enjoy a reliable and convenient mode of transportation throughout their academic journey.

I have seen the many video's but can't find it.

Now I am using avolites pc software but I want not to use a pc anymore.
There I was programm chases on the playbacks (I know the Lampy can that also) But can I programm chases on the MFF? And can I set the faderd to set the speed of the chases?

Is it posible to programm a button to set as tempo tap button?

And is it posible to set a fader like MFF to use with a smokemachibe or hazer then how more open the fader the more smoke?

I have always used Avolites (rent) but I want a own dmx console. The avolites can do this but is to expensive for me and then some people

  Booting Utils
Posted by: slegaris - 16-04-2023, 04:09 PM - Forum: LAMPY General Questions - Replies (8)

Hi, I was wondering what are the maintenance utils when booting up the console and how can I access them. 

Also the other day our lampy didnt boot up so we opened it up and found the power supply cable disconnected, after connecting it again we were wondering where is the linux based sys os stored in the lampy. It was a normal computer with a normal motherboard and everything but a part from the DNGL usb stick we didnt found any ssd or hardrive. Can we, the Lampy Users, have an answers about it I would love to create some plugins to better use our controller. TY
