Hi, I was provided a code for my lighting system by a member of this forum. It worked, for one light. Then when trying to do it again, the lights would automatically turn red with no input on my end. I have 6 fixtures with 7 channels each, I have checked the DMX addresses for overlapping, looked in the software for changes, and even read the manual. I don't have any control over the red and I no longer can control the first fixture, any suggestions? Thanks so much; I can provide more information upon request.

Hi,
can you please attach your DMXControl project? Then we can look at it and see, if we find any things, that have to be fixed to work properly

Hey, I'm still having the same issue, not sure if anyone has looked at the file but if so, that would be great!

I made sure all of the channels marched up with the program. When using my DMX board that I have, I can control all of the lights fine with no issue.
I wonder if it has to do with the code I was provided? I wouldn't know why it suddenly stopped working and doesn't work on any other light though.
I will keep trying though, thanks for the tip.
