Where do you start trouble shooting when nothing is working. I think I can rule out my dongle. I was getting DMX via my SSHub, I am not getting any pixelnet now. I ran 13 sequences last night. all looked well. I then ran the SS utility on a non working SSC. I cant get anything back now on any of the previously working controllers. I thought I could run the utility with SSC's connected if all the jumpers were in a "1 pin only: position. The only SSC with a jumper across both pins was the one that I was checking. I have now dc'd everything and am looking at every previously working controller. When I use the utility, I get nothing on anything other than a short node flash when I connect the cat5 cable to the SSC. I wish there was a test like the Lynx had to verify that at least the unit is alive. At this point I don't know if my SSHub pixelnet data is being output or if my SSc's pixelnet data reception is jacked. Or if its..............................................
I am having very similar issues. I can get some v4 SSC to program and flash. I can even get them to blink correctly in a test sequence. Then I try to reprogram them to the correct start channel and string length for my actual use and "NOTHING" Just the describe quick blink (sometimes) when plugging in the cat5 cable
I haven't moved anything. Cat5 plugs are in the same spot on my ETD, power is the same, laptop is the same. I have tried reflashing the pic with the firmware, then programming the channel, but still get nothing.
Could it be my ETD firmware? I haven't touched it since last year(when everything was working).
Anyway. I feel your pain
