13 13  When creating a Pharos project for a ShowRunner™ installation, there are several things to consider:
14 14  
15 -* Individual loads in ShowRunner™ send group-level commands to Fixture Groups in Pharos
16 -* Scene recalls in ShowRunner™ can be made to trigger Timelines in Pharos
17 -* (((
18 -The Pharos API limits group-level commands to intensity, intensity/RGB, and intensity/CCT* (((
15 +* Individual loads defined in ShowRunner™ send commands to individual Fixture Groups in Pharos
16 +* Scenes in ShowRunner™ can be mapped in order to trigger Timelines in Pharos
17 +* The Pharos API limits group-level commands to intensity, intensity/RGB, and intensity/CCT(% class="row" %)

34 34  * The Pharos controller does any necessary processing to adapt these commands for the fixtures
35 -** For example,

38 -
39 -* ShowRunner™ uses group-level commands, so each individual load in ShowRunner™ must have a corresponding Fixture Group in Pharos
29 +** For example, if Pharos receives an RGB command for a group containing RGB, HSI, and HSIC fixtures, it will do its best to make sure that the output color is consistent across all the different fixture types
40 40  * Fixture Groups defined as single-channel loads in ShowRunner™
41 41  * For RGBW fixtures, it may be a good idea to define them as separate RGB and W fixtures so that ShowRunner™ is able to control the white channel separately from the RGB channels
42 42  * Fixtures can belong to multiple Fixture Groups, allowing ShowRunner™ to send different types (e.g. RGB vs CCT) of command to the same fixture
