- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
BladeRunner channels wrong / heads not following console
Likely cause: Mode mismatch shifts every attribute; the four-head fixture needs the larger mode for per-head control.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
BladeRunner heads out of position or one head off
Likely cause: The four heads home independently; a reset re-establishes position, and a head that can't hold position after reset has a mechanical fault.

BladeRunner running its own show without the console
Likely cause: The fixture has built-in stand-alone, master/slave and sound programs that override DMX.
