Hello
since the instalation of my pixie 16
I have a unit problem
I have 2 cmb card 24
2 CTB16PC board
and now the pixie 16
my configuraton is
cmb 24 unit 01
cmb 24 unit 02
CTB16PC unit 03
  CTB16PC unit 04
until then no problem with the hardware
but since I installed the pixie 16
the hardware recognizes the pixie 16 in unit 01
and only find three units
cmb 24 in 02
ctb16 in 03
cmb 24 in 04
I am missing a ctb 16
I search one by one by unplugging my units
all is well I reconnect the pixie 16 by giving it unit 05
and all work I close the hardware and do a test on a sequence and it works, I close everything, shut down the computer
but as soon as I turn it on again, I lost the hardware configuration
how to keep the configuration for my 5 units
do you have an idea for me
cordially

Turn OFF all ID switches on the Pixie  and use the HU to set ID 05 (or higher;. I prefer natural HEX Boundaries so I would use ID 10  (port1. the rest get 11-1F)

or use the chart in the book (near back) to set ID 05 in the switches (1-8)  0000 0101

bonjour
j ai essayer de changer les dip sur le pixie comme indique sur le livre dip 0000 0101

des que je coupe l'electricité  sur les boitiers
au redémarrage le pixie revient sur unit 1
et mes cartes cmb24 ont changer d'units

Turn "OFF" all dip switches and let then in HU set the first unit ID and let the software do the rest.

Do not turn the switches back on. Leave them off and your problem will be solved.

Activez « OFF » tous les commutateurs de trempage, puis laissez dans HU définir le premier ID d’unité et laissez le logiciel faire le reste.

Ne sauvegardeez pas. Laissez-les et votre problème sera résolu.

je ne comprend pas comment mettre sur off tout  les commutateurs de trempage

 

Hello

in the hardware I only have the pixie in unit 1 and a ctb 16 in unit 3
I don't understand how to turn off all the soaking switches

The Pixie16 need 15  unused ID's after its set ID

You have an overlap  with unit 3 (CTB16)

Try doing the HU configuration with only 1 controller attached at a time.

In the beginning you said the pixie 16 is the problem.

I didn’t tell you to do anything with the other controllers

oui désolé 
j ai relus votre réponse et j'ai remis les dip sur les cmd 24
mais mon probleme est toujours le meme
les dip sur le pixie sont tous désactiver sur la carte
quand je vais dans le hardware il me trouve le pixie,mais en unit 1
toutes mes sequences sont déja configurer 
cmd 24 unit 1
cmd 24 unit 2
ctb 16 unit 3
ctb16 unit 4
sans brancher le pixie,tous vas bien,le hardware reconnait bien les 
4 units dans le bonne ordre
mais des que je branche le pixie,il passe en unit 1
donc je lui change son numéro d'unit de 1 a 5 
mais je n'ai plus que 3 units
cmb 24 en 2
ctb 16 en unit 3
ctb 24 en unit 4
plus de ctb 16 qui est normalement en unit 4
celui ci n est plus présent

Yes sorry
I reread your answer and I put the dip back on the cmd 24
but my problem is always the same
the dip on the pixie is all deactivated on the map
when I go to the hardware it finds me the pixie, but unites 1
all my sequences are already configured
cmd 24 unit 1
cmd 24 unit 2
ctb 16 unit 3
ctb16 unit 4
without connecting the pixie, all are well, the hardware recognizes the
4 units in the correct order
but as soon as I plug in the pixie, it goes to unit 1
so I change his unit number from 1 to 5
but I only have 3 units left
cmb 24 in 2
ctb 16 in unit 3
ctb 24 in unit 4
more than ctb 16 which is normally in unit 4
this one is no longer presen

bonjour theducks
quand je branche les units une par une ,tous fonctionne
tant que je n arrete pas les controleurs ou l'ordinateur
a chaque démarrage de l'ordinateur,il faut que je retourne dans le hardware remettre tout en ordre
il ne garde pas ma configuration
comme je met le pixie en unit 5 et que je suis en license pro
je n'ai pas de restriction pour le nombre d'unit normalement

 

Hello
when I plug in the units one by one, all work
as long as I don't stop the controllers or the computer
each time I start the computer, I have to go back to the hardware and put everything back in order
it does not keep my configuration
as I put the pixie in unit 5 and I am in pro license
I have no restriction for the number of units normally

The HU doesn’t “keep configurations” it sets the controllers unit IDs and allows you the opportunity to test the controllers.

NP is what sets the networks - per comm port RS485 or in the case of the pixie16- requires a RS485HS (red adapter)

What generations (versions) are your controllers?

What order are you connecting them in?

Are you connecting the AC controller to the pixie? If they are ctb16 gen 1 or 2 they will not comm with the pixie16

If they are G3 they will com with the pixie16

If they are G1 or G2 you will need to add a second network with those two controllers on it.

If so have you changed it out with another controller to test?

bonjour JR
mon probleme est  regler
a la reception du pixie,j'avais mis tout les dip a zéro
mais dans le mauvais sens,il etait tous sur on
j'ai donc tout remis dans l'autre sens et ai mis les bon dip en fonction
0000 0101 pour avoir unit 5
et tous fonctionne,toutes mes unités sont bien reconnu
encore merci pour votre aide JR ET THEDUCKS
passer de bonne fete de fin d'année et prenez soins de vous
cordialement

Hello
my problem is solved
upon receipt of the pixie, I had set all the dip to zero
but in a bad way it was all on one
So I put everything back in the other direction and put the right dip in function
0000 0101 to have unit 5
and all works, all my units are well recognized
thank you again for your help JR and THEDUCKS
have a good end of year party and take care of yourself
cordially

Wheew! I forgot that some (older?) systems set 0 by setting the switch ON (Pulled the logic down).

Not being able to see the exact system in place makes things more difficult.

In the end you got it running. 👍

The pixies have always been “0” for off and “I” for on.

Except for v1 and 2 without the dip switches.

I know Pixies are, but I  (and many of us) have been setting DIP switches since there WERE DIP Switches (the cheap MFGs use cut link DIPs).  Old habits kick in sometimes.
