rmturner54 Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I need suggestions. My display is all set up and ready to go.I have 1 DC & 1 AC board. I have been testing all summer with the standalone feature of the DC board with no problems.I have been using the hardware utility the last 2 nights with no problems manually testing each channel and adjusting flood light s etc..... So, therefore my laptop can initialize my network ok. I can control all lights thru the hardware utility.But when I attempt to down load my sequence to the board, after 3 attemps I get an error message saying it cant download, and try disconnecting the other boards in the network.I thought it might be the cat 5 cable, changed it no help.I tried a different file(a sample chase) that came with the softwareI even tried from a different computer.No luck.I have not tried to run the sequence with the show scheduler yet.I am lost . I hope its not the board....any suggestions?Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 You don't mention it in your post, so a few questions.1) Are you intending to run animation only?2) When downloading, are you connected to a single CTB-16D controller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmoore60 Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Have you removed previous sequences from the controller before loading "new"?Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmturner54 Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 that thought crossed my mind, i get an error when i attempt that step.i dont think there is anything downloaded, because all of my earlier testing wasdone witht the option to start when power is applied.
