HappyMommy Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Ok I’m at my wits end here and I’m sure this is an easy fix but... I have always ran a network that was 3 standard LOR boxes, and 2-3 dumb RGB cards (CMB24D). I have the RBG cards first and then the LOR boxes. It’s always worked fine. This year we’ve added a Pixie2 to the mix. I thought, from what I saw on the site, that I’d just have to put the Pixie last so, I have it’s address set to the last in sequence and I have it plugged in from the last LOR box in the network. So: 3 CMB24D, 3 standard LOR, and then the Pixie2. But, the hardware utility only sees the first 6 and not the pixie. What am I doing wrong?

TheDucks Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 First the physical order of boxes is not required. A Pixie 2 uses 2 addresses You set the Base, it uses the next one. Be sure the number in the upper RIGHT corner of HU is above 08 (pick 10 for a few spares) <slap> Pixie2 . Have you updated your LOR_deviceFile.text (get it from the LOR downloads page). 4.3 may not have that defined Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m having a bad tech day. LOL Short version: I see the tree if it’s by itself so I am fairly sure it’s not the device file. Maybe? I’ll check. And yes, when I mentioned above that the tree is last sequentially I meant it has the highest Unit ID (20) on the network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMommy Posted November 30, 2019 Author Share Posted November 30, 2019 Update: Turns out a port on one or the LOR boxes (the last in the chain) is dead. Now seeing all hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
