Hi,
I'm creating a new fixture, Coef MP 300 Spot moving head, and cannot get to specify the "target channel" in channels with presets controlled by another channel, e.g.: the shutter channel ( ch01 of my fixture) has one preset (values 6 to 100) that are a dimmer, but controlled by the ch 12 (dimmer).
I've seen other SSL2 fixture of the superior moving head MP 700 Zoom that has specified "target channels" in channels with rotations: colors, gobos, and dimming cases, even if the source target channel is the same of the source channel (e.g.: ch02-Colors has presets with CW and CCW rotations, with target channel > 02).
Does anyone know how to get this?
Thank you.

Hi,
I've tried some tests and i can't make scanlibray working as you hope... the manual is very poor about the links between channels.
So, after reading the MP300 Spot Manual (page 11 and 12), i don't think that link is so important.
As they say about channel 12: "Channel 1 at a value between 6 and 250, in order to control DIMMER whit this channel". And... Ch1, values 0-5 are closed shutter ... So, Ch12 is a general dimmer for all values of Ch1 greater than 5.
If i had to create this profile, i would create only normal channels: Ch1 name "Shutter", Ch1/0-5 = Closed preset, Ch1/6-100 = Open Dimmer preset and Ch12 name "Dimmer" with a Linear Dimmer preset... no need to link.
Regards,
GaËl

Re: How to select target channel in ScanLibrary Editor?
Target channels for presets such as rotation and speed can be set by right clicking the preset and selecting 'Properties'
In cases where a channel has different presets depending on the value of a control channel, you need to use '2 preset mode'. The scan library editor only supports 2 different ranges of presets per channel, however the new version which we are finalising at the moment supports an unlimited amount.
