Hooking it all up....
« on: September 24, 2011, »
Ok, so I am probably blinded by something obvious....
I've reflashed my Dongle with the Pixelnet firmware...
It's plugged in and drivers specified on Wiki are installed...
Per device manager, COM6 is defined...
Light Show Pro, Configure Outputs... Selected Pixel Net Output, Zone 1, Com 6
Went through my old DMX 16ch Expresses and update the controller to the PixelNet device, and then....
Enabled Output, put show into loop in sequencer and hit play...
From the Dongle's RJ45 port, I have a cable that goes to a SSC Powered Hub, PixelNet Input...
(DMX is outputting channels 1-512 in the old show I am trying to run....)
ALL Jumpers are set to 1 (Both PixelNet jumpers and 1 DMX jumper) as I want the first 512 channels to be DMX..
Then a cable is plugged in to the DMX output into an Express Input, the Wireless Jumper is shorted, and it is set to channel "001".
Data light on Express is illuminated...
BUT... No blinky/Flashy on the Express...

Is there a way to test PixelNet data is flowing over the wire???
