In attempting to encode a DDF, I am having trouble with the <colorwheel> semantics.
The unit M1H200W has a colorwheel with 9 colours, but has the option to split colours.
I have coded it as:
XML
<dimmer dmxchannel="6" />
<colorwheel dmxchannel="7">
<step type="color" val="#ffffff" mindmx="0" maxdmx="2" caption="White"/>
<step type="color" val="#f20deb" mindmx="6" maxdmx="8" caption="Magenta"/>
<step type="color" val="#ff8129" mindmx="12" maxdmx="14" caption="Orange"/>
<step type="color" val="#6777b8" mindmx="18" maxdmx="20" caption="Sky"/>
<step type="color" val="#f29d9b" mindmx="24" maxdmx="26" caption="Pink"/>
<step type="color" val="#ffe544" mindmx="30" maxdmx="32" caption="Yellow"/>
<step type="color" val="#008535" mindmx="36" maxdmx="38" caption="Green"/>
<step type="color" val="#1541bb" mindmx="42" maxdmx="44" caption="Blue"/>
<step type="color" val="#e21d2b" mindmx="48" maxdmx="50" caption="Red"/>
<wheelrotation>
<range type="cw" maxdmx="224" mindmx="239" minval="0.1" maxval="8"/>
<range type="ccw" mindmx="240" maxdmx="255" minval="0.1" maxval="8"/>
</wheelrotation>
</colorwheel>

Where the specs say Position 1 (open) dmx 0:2, Position 2 3:5, Position 3 6:8:, Position 4 9:11 etc. on the assumption that the even numbered positions are the split colours.
This almost works except that the colours come out in the reverse order, and Magenta (Position 2) doesn't happen - only 7 colours and white come out. (8 colours and open show on the Stage View).
