  • 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 :)

  • Here you go, tTest Project.zipTest Project.zipTest Project.ziphank you so much! I really appreciate it!
    Each light has 7 channels, brightness, red, green, blue, strobe, color fade, speed.
    I also have provided the code bellow.

  • did you assign the correct addresses to your devices? According to your project 1.

    1st device DMX channel 1.

    2 device DMX channel 17,

    3 device DMX channel 33,

    4 device DMX channel 49,

    5 device DMX channel 65

    and device 6 on channel 81

    do you have the correct DMX cables to connect the devices?

  • 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.
