Re: 16bit DMX
Not that I've come across no, I was using pseudo to indicate that there isn't actually a 16bit number being transmitted directly via DMX, but rather two 8bit numbers being interpreted by the receiving fixture as one 16bit value. Your description of the course channel being bits 15-8 and fine being 7...

Re: 16bit DMX

I'm loving all the MIDI and DMX control possibilities SCS offers :D I want to trigger a cue with a midi foot switch, and for it to continue playing whilst the switch is pressed. However, when the switch is relea...
