Design TriBrick 36 LED/ Stage Setter 24 Troubleshooting

chadillac ·
I am setting up a row of Tribrick 36 LED with a Stage Setter 24 console. All of the fixtures are set to 4 channel mode, Address 008. No matter what I do I cannot get the bricks to see the DMX from the console, the display continues to flash. All the other fixtures in my rig are responding to the data from the console. We have tried home running to every fixture in the row and they all flash, no DMX. What could this be?

eNode 4 Configuration - DMX Port "NET" setting

Perry Beatty ·
I'm new to setting up the eNode 4 ethernet node. I have a network setup with 12 - eNode 4 units, each of them needs to to be configured for all 4 DMX ports set to output. I need 4 ports to be assigned to 2 universes, 2 ports for universe "x" and the other 2 ports to universe "x+1". When I go to the DMX port option on the menu, there is a "NET" setting and I'm not sure what number to use on all the ports for the 12 units? Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance, Perry Beatty

Choosing DMX for Musical water fountain

George ·
Hello guys I want to make a simple musical water fountain for my garden. I aim to use around 40 LED s , each 6 watt (the ones that for swimming pools that contain 6 of one watt led s ) , and 40 water fountain nozzles (electrical valves) . Should I use DMX for such a project ? Should I buy only dmx-compatible LED s ? Can DMX also control nozzles ? I would appreciate your help , Thanks in advance.

RE: Cyber Pack Help

TeacherX ·
Help! I just purchased four Cyber Pack 20a dimmers and can't understand the user manual at all! (what is a "note number"?) I am familiar with DMX and have used many different types of dimmers, but the documentation for this product leaves much to be desired. I'm wondering if anyone has seen more thorough documentation online that I can access. I'm trying to configure the units to work sequentially so the first pack is DMX 1-4, the next is 5-8, etc. What is the correct menu/button sequence to...

Setup Help

MichaelCallahan ·
Recently received the Gobar Plus IR and trying to hook it up to a Stage Setter 8 Console and can’t seem to get any results. Could be an issue with basic setup that I’m not aware of, as I’m incredibly new. DMX our from console to DMX in on gobar. Can’t figure anything else out from there. Thank you.

To set the universe of a DMX port, go to "Set DMX Port" menu, then select the DMX port you want to change. After selecting your desired port, go to "Principal". "Principal" is where you select the universe you want to be outputted by the DMX port. Also, the IP address of your enodes will be set to 2.10.10.2 by default. The IP address must be set to something unique on each enode in your network.

if the display is flashing then there is no DMX. this can be caused by a faulty cable or a bad DMX driver in the unit(s)

Re: Design TriBrick 36 LED/ Stage Setter 24 Troubleshooting

chadillac ·
The board is outputting DMX, other fixtures on the same universe are seeing it. I know that the Stage setter only outputs DMX channels 1-24, (If I set a unit to an address above 24 using this console, I get a no DMX error). Could that be messing with the DMX inputs on the tri bricks? Are they looking for 1-512?

Permanent Dmx Ghosting Issues

bubbajoe ·
Hi everybody! I am currently renovating a permanent install which was a mess. I have found two unknown Dmx 5 pin leads that look like they are home runs from the dimmers in the back to the console. I am having ghosting issues with these two Dmx lines they look like two separate lines. There is no problem with the console because there is only one dmx line that runs to the dimmers and they work perfectly. Do not know the brand of the dimmers. I am wondering what my next troubleshooting steps...

Change starting address Pixel Net 4

jbaily ·
I am wondering if someone could help me figure out a problem. I have a pixel net 4, which I know is older, that I would like to use. The 4 ports use Uni 0 - 3. I would like to change the starting address for each port starting with Universe 5. I have done it a while ago with DMX Workshop, but I cannot seem to catch lightning in a bottle twice. Does anyone have a solution for this issue? FWIW - I am connecting the Pixel Net through a switcher to a Gio@5. Thank you for your time. J

Re: Change starting address Pixel Net 4

Ricardo C. ·
In DMX Workshop, Go to Node List, and under the Node Status tab, the Pixel Net 4 should appear with its IP address listed Right-click and expand all menu for the Pixel Net 4 Under Output menu, right-click and select Configure on the output you want to change. Under the Port tab, input the desired universe.

Wireless DMX not working! Help Please

I recently bought Elation Event Cylinders with built in Wireless DMX. Everything seems to work fine with this exception: I cannot connect my DMX transmitter to the units. I've tried every mode and variation I can find. Elation support was unable to help. Does anyone have knowledge of these units? I appreciate any assistance. Thank you!

Elation LED Spot II Locking up

OwenSmith ·
Hey everyone, I am working with six different LED Spot II moving head fixtures, and they are all having the same issue. They will randomly lock up and not respond to any DMX control signals. The only way to fix it is with either a power cycle, or to wait until the fixture automatically does a fixture reset. After which, everything is back to normal until it locks up again. It only seems to effect the LED II fixtures, and not our LED III fixtures. Is this a common issue? Is there a way to fix...

ADJ DP-415R blown fuse behavior?

Hello - fairly new to lighting; have been using a variety of DMX-controlled LED fixtures for a while and recently bought this dimmer pack to control some standard lamps as part of a stage setup. Problems straight out of the box - anything plugged into channels 1, 2 or 4 turned on immediately, regardless of whether unit was powered on via switch. Anything plugged into channel 3 was off. LED panel appears to work as designed (able to switch modes, set channel behaviors, etc.). Completely...

KL6 Flashing

Greetings all, I have been struggling with trouble shooting an issue. The system is made up of Enodes, optos, multiple runs and universes, with moving head fixtures and static lighting. 98% sure this all boils down to the KL6's on this system. the issue is flashing(loss of DMX) happens about every 45 minutes and all the fixture on the chain would either flash or react. The chain in question(originally) is a Downstage bar made up of 10 KL6's, 10 WW profile's, and 2 Satura Profiles. Using a...

Adding EP4 nodes and need to move fixtures to new universe

defnotzoidberg ·
Hello all! I am adding 4 EP4 nodes into my venue's lighting system. we are using ONYX w/ a NX Touch controller. we are running out of DMX channels in our Universe 1. is there a way to move a group of fixtures in the patch section of ONYX to a 2nd Universe without having to individually re-patch every fixture into the new universe? thanks for any advice!

Re: Adding EP4 nodes and need to move fixtures to new universe

Jingles8302 ·
Hi, you can do this via the command line in the patch window, or drag to select the fixtures but by the universe column and once all are selected just type in the new universe number and it should move them all.

Hello, I know this thread is more of a general area, but we can't offer advice for gear that is not Elation or ADJ branded equipment, and this unit doesn't look to be one of our old SS 24s. I would find the manufacturer and email or call them.

First fixture in DMX chain keeps getting fried

We have been experiencing this problem ever since moving into this venue. If anyone has any insight we would greatly appreciate it.

Re: First fixture in DMX chain keeps getting fried

ELA GINES ·
Greetings, for sure you are getting an excess of voltage on the data line. also its not uncommon to have other PCB affected if a voltage related event occurs (collateral damage) long term. you may have to have an electrician use a scope VS just metering voltage, this may reveal some anomalies affecting your lights.

Platinum hfx port workaround

Hey guy, I have a couple of HfXs that have a bad dataline somewhere bEthernet from where it receives DMX and where it plugs into the front control panel. Is it possible to use a dmx to Ethernet adapter to get operations again using the rj45 port that operates with edmx port instead of the standard dmx port?
