enraginangel Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 So I just received my CCF yesterday and started playing with it today. I didn't win the Try For Free promotion, but maybe next year...Anyway, I got it to detect in the hardware utility and it looks fine. However, when I hook it up and try testing it in the Sequence Editor, it doesn't light up? Am I missing something? I haven't touched LOR since last year so I may be rusty, but I remember I could design and test as I went. Am I doing something wrong? Should I just RTFM? I set the Unit ID to 04, I added a Cosmic Color Device with the Unit ID as 04 and made sure it was a 10 channel device with two strands (for both CCF heads).I just made a simple animation that just turns it on and I don't see anything light up.

Jim Hans Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Make sure you have "control lights" checked in the sequence editor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enraginangel Posted October 14, 2012 Author Share Posted October 14, 2012 Okay, while "control lights" was unchecked my first time around, the CCF still doesn't light up with it checked the second time around.So what I did was I created an instant sequence for 1 CCR in Superstar then exported it to the LOR sequence editor. While it was programmed for all 50 channels, I figured it would still work for the 10 I needed. I played the sequence and the CCF lit up!...but not the way it was programmed in Superstar...It seems to just light up randomly. And when I tried setting all grid boxes to "On", it would still not light up.Thank you for your help, Jim, but it looks like I still need another push to get this thing going.

enraginangel Posted October 14, 2012 Author Share Posted October 14, 2012 Okay, I figured it out. I perused another subforum and figured how to set it up with advice from Don. I guess I wasn't supposed to set it up as a Cosmic Color device and only needed to set up two RGB channels and 4 regular channels for strobing.
