Guest guest Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 okay, tried loading your 16 channel profile, clicked on next and program just sits there. Go back up and click on NO, next can be clicked, but has to be clicked twice before program will continue.So no matter what, I am still getting the same results.

mryan23 Posted March 2, 2012 Author Share Posted March 2, 2012 Sorry I haven't been able to figure out what the problems is. The other versions I have been uploading have just been total guesses at what the problem could be.Does anyone have it running or is everyone having issues with it?

k6ccc Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Well, since you wanted someone else to try it, I just did. I used version 4 on a laptop running Windows Vista and LOR 3.14.Started the program and it asked what sequence to load. Selected a sequence and then "Next". It asked if I wanted to load a profile. If I answer NO, the program immediately aborts with no error message given. If instead I answer yes, I brings up a dialog box to select the profile. Of course I don't have any profiles, so I back out of that and select no instead and it immediately aborts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mryan23 Posted March 2, 2012 Author Share Posted March 2, 2012 Was the sequence you selected built in a demo version of lor? If you open it in notepad can you read it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could that be an issue?In any case, I tried it again this evening after confirming that I could read a non-compressed version in NotePad. I got a different result. I was able to continue past the question about loading a profile, and the program asked how many outlets, and after answering "2", was asked to the location and beaker value for the two outlets. After that, the program said that both outlets were unused. I was never given any opportunity to define which controllers (there were 3 in the sequence I was using) were fed from which outlet.

mryan23 Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 Did it ask you to set the amount of current each channel requires before it asked the number of outlets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like the other person is having the same issues I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mryan23 Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 Would either of you mind emailing me the sequence you are using this with? I'll try using it where I will be able to see error messages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try using it where I will be able to see error messages.Then I'd be e-mailing you a lot of sequences as I have tried this with EVERY ONE of mine now and get the same results.I do find it odd that the first version worked when I first used it, but after going to the other versions that won't work, then trying to go back to the original did not work any longer.I even tried going backward with a restore point BEFORE I ever installed them, redownload the original version and still got the same issues.And I'm not sure if our sequences would even help without having the audio file with them. Which we couldn't supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surfing4Dough Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I am confused how this program is different or better than the LOR Power Usage Utility here:http://t2lights.com/christmas/lorutility.htmlHas worked pretty well for me in the past. Now that I use a ton of LEDs, I haven't needed it as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mryan23 Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 I did not know that utility existed until after I wrote this. It seems to be very similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k6ccc Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I never had heard of that utility either. However I cant get it to much of anything - yes, I enabled the macros. I click the button to load a sequence, and although the button presses, nothing else happens. Same thing for the channel list button. I will point out that I am using Open Office on this computer. I am going to remote into my office computer which has Excel and try it that way.BTW, I sent Ryan one of my sequences and he replied that he was able to duplicate the problem that several of us were having.

mryan23 Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 I was able to figure out what was making the sequence k6ccc sent me not work. If this is still not working and youre still interested in using this sending me a sequence could help. I am able to see error messages that the program doesnt show to the user.

These are S3 sequences created with an Advanced License. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
