RVNorth Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 First off thank you to Jim and jr for helping me with getting my system working. It is up and running now, however I am avoiding using the Pro license and just using a laptop with the Advanced license with V5.6.6. I will try Pro again after Christmas. My problem now is timing. I am running a show unattended. I want to turn on all lights at 4pm, then run a 30 minute show at 5 pm which will repeat at 7 pm. The show is the same one and is comprised of 10 musical sequences, 4 of which involve the CCR 12x50 tree. Lights will all come on after the first 30 minute show and remain until 7 pm. And come on again after the 7pm show and remain on until 9pm, then everything shuts off. With the PC scheduler I can create one show and schedule it multiple times. I don't see a way to do that using the N2-GR Director via the HUB. The N2-G4 manual says I can have up to 8 shows. So I could break everything up into segments, But when I tried to load two scheduled shows with 3 other on off shows around them the director went into INIT when I plugged in the SD card and never came out. I waited 45 minutes. Any ideas on how I can do this? I tried running the show via a PC, but if I set sequences to load upon use, I get a 90 second pause while a CCR Tree sequence loads - unacceptable. If I say load all sequences before show starts I get a 5 minute pause when the show starts (since lights were all on and they shut off when the schedule starts it is 5 minutes of darkness) - unacceptable. I can take the same show and run it on a PC using V4.1.3 And everything works nicely, But I really prefer to use the director. RV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Show 01 - 4-5 - All on Show 02 - 5:00 - 5:30 Consisting of the 10 musical sequences. Set to Run Once, or Every Half Hour. Filler or All On during other times Show 03 - 5:30 - 7:00 - All on Show 04 - 7:00 - 7:30 See Show 2 - You will need to create this show again. Show 05 - 7:30 - 9:00 - All on. For my commercial clients, I stick in a 9:00-9:30 Show at the end with ALL Off, just to be sure everything shuts off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVNorth Posted November 28, 2021 Author Share Posted November 28, 2021 Okay, I will give that another try. Hopefully it will initialize when I load the SD card. Fingers crossed. Thanks Don. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
