I am new to lights, about 2 days new, and feeling pretty stupid at the moment. I can not seem to get my lights to work. I am in need of set up assistance before I purchase more gear.
My wife recently bought me the Behringer Eurolight LC2412 with 2 ELATION DP-415 dimmer packs and 8 par 38 lights. This was used, with no manuals. I downloaded manuals for all pieces. I have checked all lights and they work on their own. Being used, I reset the board as shown in the manual. I set the dip switch to "1" on the dimmer pack and connect to the LC-2412. The DMX Indicator light on the dimmer pack is blinking. I assume it recognizes the board. I have the bank ON "P" and all faders up to 100%. I assumed it would be a simple plug and play operation, but I get nothing. What do I have to do to get the lights to function? Is this a simple dip switch issue, or is there programming involved that I appear to not understand?
Any assistance is appreciated.
