Nicols L2100 DMX - Information required/Pearl Personality

[peternewman]

Hi all,

 

Got a Nicols L2100 DMX laser, and I need to download/make a fixture personality for the Pearl for it. I've not managed to find the manual yet, so I was wondering if someone can give me some information about it, or even better a Pearl personality.

 

I think it may possibly be the same unit as an Acme model, but don't know the model for that yet. Edit: It's certainly not an Acme iLaser clone. The unit I've got looks like this (appologies for the large image):

Thanks in advance,

Edit: Ignore the above, I've found the manual (it's even got an English section), I'll post the DMX information later in case anyone else needs it.

Only thing I can suggest is the obvious.... i.e. Avolites Download - Request.

 

Their usually pretty quick with me, inc palettes/preset focus's/range tables. Just a matter of getting the DMX layout to them.

It's a two-channel unit, so personality will be very simple. You just need to choose whether you want HTP or LTP. Looking at the nature I would assume LTP for both.

 

Relevant bits of code something like:

 

TYPE  1  2  M

DMX
2	 1   L	1   100   1N   G   1   "Pattern Select"			 0	 0	 0
2	61   L	2   100   1N   O   1   "Colours Lines"			  0	 0	 0
END

 

This would place the attributes on 'Iris/Shutter'

Hi, just wondering if you can help me, I have the same laser unit as the one you have here. I'm having trouble finding an English manual, could you please tell me where you found the manual. I would be really grateful If you can help.

Thanx
