Systems, methods, and devices for controlling one or more LED light fixtures

A system for controlling an output of each of a plurality of light fixtures, the system comprising:

• a controller configured to generate a direct drive signal related to a direct drive signal value for one or more arrays of light-emitting diode (“LED”) light sources;
• and
• a light fixture including
• an array of LED light sources corresponding to a color channel of the light fixture;
• a driver circuit configured to drive the array of LED light sources;
• and
• a light fixture controller including a non-transitory computer readable medium and a processing unit, the light fixture controller including computer executable instructions stored in the computer readable medium for controlling operation of the light fixture to:
• receive the direct drive signal related to the direct drive signal value for the one or more arrays of LED light sources,
• determine an output of a reference light fixture based on the direct drive signal,
• determine a value for a color channel drive signal based on the output of the reference light fixture, the value for the color channel drive signal corresponding to a drive value for the color channel that results in an output of the light fixture that matches the output of the reference light fixture, and
• provide a control signal to the driver circuit to cause the driver circuit to apply the color channel drive signal having the value to the array of LED light sources.
