Ok to start off, this is my first setup ever and I have looked every where for answers.
My setup:
Windows 8.1 64 bit
Vixen 3.1u2 Build #66
EtherDongle v1.0 - PIC is flashed with EtherDongle_DMX.hex
Lynx Express v5.0 - PIC is flashed with LE_Firmware_09_2010.hex
All I'm trying to do is figure out how to start sequencing channels on the express.
When I run the test function on the express, all 16 LED's light up in order and flash and then the ch. 2 and 4 stay lit. When my strand of lights are plugged in, they follow along with the LED's.
I have cat5 connecting my computer to the EtherDongle. EtherDongle is plugged into 120vAC outlet. Green LED is on. Green LED on MagJack is on and yellow LED is flashing fast. Cat5 is on the Pixelnet(DMX) output connected to the Express DMX input. A single strand of 50 red LED lights are on the 1st channel. The wireless and termination jumpers are on. The Data Link LED is off. The 5V LED is on. The 3.3V LED is on. Starting channel is 001.
So I don't know if the computer is sending the right language to the EtherDongle or if it isn't passing the EtherDongle to the Express.
Display Setup.jpg shows my configuration and Sequence.jpg just shows that I have one channel using the twinkle effect. If you guys think the reason is software related then let me know and I'll ask in their forum.
Thanks, Blake
