glossyhalothane Posted November 27, 2019 Author Share Posted November 27, 2019 I just need to rearrange the unit ID's I think but how Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 The LOR 16x25 tree uses a Pixie8 controller and a Pixie8 uses eight Unit ID's not one. By looking at your profile you have a Standard license and a Standard license only allows eight Unit ID,s. You need to upgrade your license to run the tree.

glossyhalothane Posted November 27, 2019 Author Share Posted November 27, 2019 sorry I just updated my profile,, i DO have pro. so how do i get the sequencer to read my pixie 8 when put it on the sd card everything ran but the pix tree IN my picture that i linked you can see the sequence came with it on unit ID 7 but in real life my pixie unite is ID 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pixie8 also requires Enhanced NW so need Pro license. Thats the problem with using cell I can only assume since people are buying this stuff the understand the license requirements.

If you DID NOT buy EDITABLE sequences, then I do not believe you will be able to EDIT the sequences to change your channel ID units or anything else in those sequences. Because if you bought the cheaper {LOCKED} sequences, they ARE NOT Editable and you would have to change your tree to use the defaults in the UNEDITABLE/LOCKED Sequences. Only other way around that is, you'd now need to buy the EDITABLE sequences so you can change things around to match your display configuration. This is why I tell folks, ALWAYS buy the EDITABLE sequences, otherwise, issues like this arise constantly and the end user wonders how to change them and can't, because they're LOCKED. Always spend the extra little $$ and buy editable sequences, then you can avoid a lot of headaches and grief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDucks Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 What Orville said is why I always recommend Advanced and Pro users use the LOR channel mapping when possible. Unfortunately, the other (lower) levels are sequential. (but if you do have those, they will all be DUMB channel ID's and can be easily remapped in the SE Tools: Channel Configuration: <buttons at the bottom> allow you to move the controller ID and Network with a couple of clicks. Pixies can be done there, but a bit more pain as they need to be done by Port ID (even though doing 1 by itself would be invalid UNLESS you are moving JUST that PORTs usage to a different controller) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be doing things the hard way, since I have never used this, and I couldn't find anything c alled Channel Mapping in the SE {Pro S4.4.4}. Thanks.

Now I know it by another name. Thank you for clearing that up! Edited November 28, 2019 by Orville Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
