dodddd1967 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I downloaded the S2 version of the software earlier this year when it came out. I am running v 2.1.6 on the sequence editor, v 2.1.6 on the hardware utility. I got a late start this year and could not get my program to run so I had to settle for a static display this year...quite disappointed. Any way my problem is that I go to run the show and the music plays but only channel 1 on unit 1 blinks on and off. Nothing else. I have a 1602W model 3 with the MP3 player and an additional 1602W daisy chained to it. It has worked great the last two years but this year not so much. I tried a new sequence, I bypassed the MP3 player and connected right to the controller. When I tested all the channels on both units everything tested fine, did what it was supposed to...but no show. Either by MP3 player or direct to my laptop...nothing but channel 1 blinking. I would like to try to get this problem solved before I take all my lights down and put away. any suggestions woud be greatly appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis Chaput Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Did you assign the chanels to the controller for the lights you want to come on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodddd1967 Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 Yes. I programed each channel and tested it with the HWU to make sure it works. Each channel works. but when I go to schedule a show either with an SD card with the MP3 director or directly to the 1602W, the music plays fine but only the #1 channel on unit 1 blinks on and off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmoore60 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 In the sequence editor under tools, select channel property grid.Are all your channels in software assigned to hardware units/channels?Sounds like you ONLY have unit 1 channel 1 defined in your sequences. Since this is the ONLY channel that will work no matter how you run your sequences.Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a very late start because of work this year and I haven't had time to play too much with the updated software so I didn't know that was there. The flashing was my beat track; it was the only track that was assigned and it happend to be assigned to channel one of controller one for what ever reason. Thank you so much, I will be prepared for next year a little earlier...lets say around easter. Again thanks and happy New Year.Darrin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
