LIFMU UPLIGHTS 18 LED RGBW

The fixture is in 8ch mode via its menu right? sometimes there is a 4ch and 8ch, so RGBW works, but the rest don't.

I'm also confused, you say if 6-8 are at 0, 1-5 work, but you also say that using the auto functions from channels 6-8 work also so.... can elaborate?

No menu option for changing the number of channels no. You set it to "d" for DMX mode and select the DMX channel. If the "d" is flashing then it's supposedly getting a signal from the controller. Which all four do and on different cables I tried.

The other options are manual colors, auto modes and sound. And those other options are what I was referring to when I mentioned they work in auto mode. I meant the light itself locally.

I can't get them to react to Ch6-8 either for the macros or strobe

Manual

Is there another page there? Here is an example of a somewhat detailed DMX chart.

The channel page is in my first post. There aren't any other pages besides the cover

I tried another computer just now for good measure. I have both MAC and Windows available. I get the same result.

it's def not a Mac or Windows issue, it is either a fixture issue or a profile issue.
Can you attach the profile you are using? Or i can just make you a new one that follows the manual exactly from your 1st post.

I am using this profile and it doesn't seem to work - but the channels match up.

I have noticed that they don't quite align to the values in the channel map that came with the fixture.

I sure appreciate your help!

Try this profile I just made.
If it doesn't work with this, then perhaps the manual is wrong, but moving channels should do SOMETHING, a profile cannot make a light not work as it is just a GUI of the numbered DMX channel it is controlling.

Thank you, thank you!! so very much.. Your profile works perfectly!! They worked immediately.

Ok, it was probably a default value on in the auto channel. Glad its working now.

I was thinking the same, but I don't spend enough time tinkering on DMX to know quickly. I really appreciate ya! I am glad the masses has a profile for these cans now too.
