Guest guest Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 This may sound simple but when you set the channel to LOR controller did you select controller 01 and assign the channel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Inside the sequence editor click on the grey box on the left side for the channel you want to control. Right click on it and select Change channel settings. Then in device type select LOR controller. Under Unit select 01.Under circut select the number of the channel that you have the lights on you want to control with that channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Did you use autoconfig on your com port set up?I was having problems with my USB adapter and could only autoconfig my comport after I rebooted. Only then was I able to use autoconfig sucessfully. Then I refreshed and bingo it found my controllers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
