Wygantmb Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 I own 4 of the second Gen Pixie 16's. My issue is when I go in to the sequencer (S5) I can not get the sequencer to control my pixie controllers. It runs my flood lights and my older 16 channel controllers just fine. I can get every string to work while using HU on all 4 pixie 16 units. I can change the colors of individual strings and everything seems to work great in HU. I have assigned one of the controllers with Unit # 50. In the S5 sequencer I have gone into the preview and assigned the unit with the same starting Unit # 50. The sequencer then auto fills all the remaining channels. The Unit # 50 is running a 16 string tree with 100 pixels per string. It still will not control the lights during play back with the control light selected. I have tried to create show and put them onto a SD card and play them both on my OLD MP3 Director and my new one with the internal clock. All of the other controller will play but not the pixie controllers. I'm sure I am missing something simple but I cant figure it out. Am help would be great. Thank you.

dibblejr Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 HU will work regardless of network problems. 75% of those I help have network problems. Think of HU as a sort of back door to the controller. Yes the controller will work with the HU is open unless the controller is fried. In order for the controllers to work outside of HU the network has to be set properly. If you know how to check your Network Config set it at 500K LOR fastest and ensure "Enhanced " is selected. If your pixies have the dip switch all switches must be "Off" JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wygantmb Posted August 19, 2018 Author Share Posted August 19, 2018 The network setting were the issue. If you change the network settings mark sure your other controllers are compatable. If they aren’t you have to go back to the slower network and run firmware updates on them. Thank you Pixel God (dibblejr) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
