What the [rdmbench-pids](https://github.com/darinpope/rdmbench-pids) fixture library holds for Vari-Lite, Inc., whose ESTA manufacturer ID is `0x564C`: the models profiled from a unit on a bench, and the names of the parameters the maker added to RDM.

## Models

No Vari-Lite, Inc. model is profiled yet. RDMBench captures one from a unit on the bench with **Fixture → Contribute Fixture Profile…** (see [The PID library](/help/pid-library/)).

## Manufacturer parameters

The 30 parameters Vari-Lite, Inc. fixtures may list in SUPPORTED_PARAMETERS without describing, named as [`tables/vari-lite.json`](https://github.com/darinpope/rdmbench-pids/blob/f65ad635e800/tables/vari-lite.json) names them. A fixture that describes a parameter itself always wins over this table: makers reuse numbers across product generations, and only the fixture knows which generation it is.

**Source:** VL3600 Profile IP Series user manual, section 4 'RDM Parameter IDs' (https://vari-lite.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/manuals/vl3600-profile-ip-series-users.pdf); model IDs 0x003E VL3600 Profile IP and 0x0042 VL3600 LT Profile IP. The manual names these in prose ('Output Power Mode'); the names here are that wording in upper snake case. Settable from the GET/SET columns (0x8AAF and 0x8AB0 are SET-only). The manual gives no data types; where it says 'value range depends on options' the PID is an enumeration, but no value labels are printed. The Art-Net PIDs 0x8AB2–0x8AB6 are marked in the manual as superseded by the E1.37-2 0x07xx set, and 0x8AAC by the E1.37-1 0x03xx set.
