brettmc Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I have upgraded to the new S5 with the latest update. I did a new preview (see image) and created a new prop for my Pixie unit I got last year. I watched your videos on how to create the preview to learn how. It showed grouping but didn't say why you need to do it. The software created the "Pixie 01" and turned it blue just like in the video but when I open a sequence it is not blue. I have made several new sequences this summer in the Superstar Sequencer and tried to insert them into the S5 following your video: Light-O-Rama Inserting a SuperStar Effect into ShowTime 5 Sequencer and I cannot get it to work. My area is not blue like the video. I have searched the forums and can not find anything with my issue. Please see attachements which are screenshots of both the preview and a sequence. Thank you very much~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattBrown Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 In Preview Design, groups are displayed with blue text. However, in the sequence grid, all rows are displayed with the same text color. This includes preview groups. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettmc Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 (edited) I still don't know how to install Superstar into a S5 sequence. Edited October 15, 2018 by brettmc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianBruderer Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 It might be easiest if I remote into your computer and I can see exactly what is happening. Email me at brian@superstarlights.com and we can setup a date and time. -Brian Bruderer (superstar developer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettmc Posted October 28, 2018 Author Share Posted October 28, 2018 Everything is working in Preview now so I connected my Pixie16 controller up and connected all the ribbons. I tested it in the hardware utility and it works there but when I play a sequence and check "control lights" nothing is happening. No lights at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No lights at all How is LOR Network Configuration/Preferences set up? Is the Pixie16 on an enhanced network? Does that match its Prop Definition in Preview Design? Is each pixel string assigned a separate unit id? Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettmc Posted October 28, 2018 Author Share Posted October 28, 2018 the Pixie16 is on an enhanced network (Aux A) and that is how the Matrix vertical -quad is set up. in HU is shows it as Unit 6 (which is the number I assigned it last year when using S4) and each ribbon as a port 1-16. In preview, the unit number starts with 6 and goes to 16 and each start circuit # as 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to your post and your unit ID it should show 6,7,8,9,0A,0B,0C,0D.0E,0F, 10, 11,12,13,14, and 15 JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattBrown Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 In the Comm Listener window (CL) it should show a line something like this (your COM port number may be different): 2018-10-28 13:25:52 15:LOR-AuxA [INFO ] COM4 opened as AuxA with speed 500K Is the Hardware Utility closed? Are shows disabled? The status LED on the Pixie controller is on solid? Could you please attach a screen capture of the Prop Definition window for you matrix?
