Help No show

[Bruce Kryfka]

I was hoping to get  a show going at 5;30 but nothing happened. Everything is set up that I know.  I been through the hardware menu and sequence editor and schedule editor and still nothing. What am I missing.

I don't know what I did but the show came to life

Is the show playing on your computer?  Is control lights turned on?

Give us a little more detail on how you are running your show. For example are you using a computer or one of the directors (and which one if that's the case). If on the computer, what does the status panel show? Is the clock right?

What I finally did was to go into the Hardware utility section and played around with some of the items in there and the show started all by itself. So I am totally confused but now the show is running and I'll see what happens tomorrow. Thanks for all the help. You club members are great.

What many people have done not knowing or forgot, Is you can not have two part of the program up and running at the same time. Example forget to shut down Hardware Utility and then open a show or have a show up and running in the background and then open the sequence editor, or the other way around. Only one thing can control the serial port at a time. So, always shut down what you are doing before opening another aspect of LOR software.

What I had to do to get my show going was to click on the blue halo light and enable the show to at least get it going and had to the same thing to shut it down because it would not stop either. So I will see what tonight does and see if I have the same problem. One thing that I did notice was that once I was in the hardware utility I had to hit the refresh button to do another search for the controllers present.

Bruce,

 

It sounds like you do not have a schedule setup if you are having to do this. Program a schedule for each day of the week and don't forget to hit the save button at the top. Right click the LOR red bulb at the bottom right and enable show. That will have your schedule active for the time of day and for each day.
