Program to add Channels to Vixen for SS

[mmulvenna]

Hi Folks,

Me again. I notice one issue with the video. The install will look slightly different when you do the first install. The setup program will do a check for the required files and download them from Microsoft if they are not on your computer. The setup program will also ask you if you want to install the program with an unknown developer.

Here is the promised Video for VSB

Great job, should help a lot of VIXEN users in SSC creations

Hi Rick-

It looks good.  One question - you did your test with one group name and one object name.  If you wanted to add another group and/or object name to fill in the rest of the channels to the whole pixelnet universe will your software append to the end the new channels or overwrite what was already done?

example:
Channels 1 - 512 = SSC - Arches Pixel Mode
Channel 513 - 1025 - SSC - Roof - Hybrid Mode

You just select the start channel and the mode and amount of nodes then click create
Change the Start Channel and object and mode then click create again
continue until you use up all of your SSC and or Channels

If you mess up and use the same start address then it will over write the channel text and color. I would just update the grid button and start over. Easier than editing hundreds of channels using the above example data.

Hope that makes sense

I think it will be programmer days since I am just a hobbyist wannabe programmer

Yes, thanks for clarifying.  I can't wait to try it out.  It certainly will make setting up the current version of vixen easier.

Well this I think this is funny

I am spending time to work on this program.

My plan for this year is to use only 5 SSC for my front windows. If I set them to String mode I am only adding 15 channels. I will be subtracting 9 channels for a total of 6 additional channels.

Hi Folks,

I got a couple of things taken care of on my todo list. I discovered another thing that I missed. I allowing to setup multi dongles but no way of having more that one. So I need to fix that. I got some of the Sort tab layout done and did some testing, but it still needs some work.

Any more ideas?
