Daisy Chained LOR Boxes Over E1.31

Recommended Posts

I've got my whole show set up i plugged in my first box and its playing over e1.31 i plug in the second to be daisy chained a the green light on the LOR box goes from solid green (receiving data) to blinking (not receiving data) Last night it did not work and then i restarted it and re plugged the wire back in and all 3 boxes worked, but it would flicker I then wiggled the cable and it went on and off, I realized that i had exposed the wires on my newly crimped cat 5 cable I made a new one plugged it in and it didn't work, I plugged the old one and it didn't work either but they both work on the first box only when the daisy chaining cat 5 cable isn't plugged in, when it is the whole show doesn't work. I am using multicast on the E1.31 board form leddiyexpress 6 port, and have the first box plugged in using a lor to dmx crossover cable with the board in DMX mode

Which LOR controllers are you using? All of mine have a red LED. Are you sure the LOR controllers are running DMX?

Just out of curiousity are you only using the 3 Lor controllers? The reason I ask is why the E1.31 bridge? You could use the rs485 adapter from LOR. It would simplify things greatly

using 3 TCB16PCs on one universe and some rgb dmx stuff on the other channel. bridge was primarily for a network setup so I could control from multiple computers from anywhere in house as long as on network there is a led by the ethernet jacks on the controllers solid when getting data blinking when not but there is something plugged in
