Hi,

there are some profiles availlable for the Sunstrip Active stageblinder dmx but If you use these profiles you can't use the FX generator to make for example a scene in which the 10 individual lamps can do a dim chase. Because if you use the FX generator only the last lamp respons to the DMX signal.
To solve this problem I now patch 10 par 36 as one sunstrip in that way you can use each lamp individual in the FX generator but it would be much easyer to use the Sunstrip Profile mode 4 in the correct way.

Does anyone knows an answer for this problem?

DVC2 uses the old SSL1 profile format which does not support multi-beam fixtures. DVC3 will support the newer SSL2 format where multi-beam fixtures can be built.

You have already found the best solution which is to patch individual fixtures instead.
