Flashed eD back to pixelnet.  For giggles, I reprogrammed the ssc using eD (used dongle previously) and I now have a multicast lan in lsp dropdown!  Thought I had it.  No dice.  Tried using IPs.  Nada.

Really wish I didn't have act checked but I do...  I have a feeling I'm real close.  Thanks for the help thus far.

Can you take a screen shot of your output setup?

I tried adding the remainder of the 4096 channels but I can't add any with 4 digits.

Look at page 3 of the pdf of the first post. Size is always 512 you just keep changing universe and start channels.

Here is a picture of my config. I would go ahead and configure all 16 universes and try it.

Think of it as adding 8 universes of dmx.

I understand the channel size of 512, but I am curious, why wouldn't the channel starts be in increments of 512? 1,513,1025,1537 etc?

b/c the device is seen as a multi dmx network device. then the eD takes all of those universes and uses them as it's pixelnet streams.

it's so the software can communicate to different people's version of a E1.31 device and still work.

it's seen as network 1, channel 1-512,  network 2, channel 1-512  once you have a new "network" you start over in channel counts. there's no channel "513" in dmx, so this would fail for the eD with DMX firmware.

Just to be clear for example on network 2 in dmx mode the start channel would be1 but in pixelnet mode it would be 513 correct? At least that is what I saw in the pdf.

Just made the changes.  That did it! 

Spent entirely too much time learning I need to highlight the section of time to get it to output...   <fp.
