Austen Posted November 25, 2009 Author Share Posted November 25, 2009 It works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OK, so I just remembered that since I ordered that new DMX cable, I have 2 cables. I plugged both cables in to the Intimidator and iDMX-1000. Moved the slider, and the light was freaking out. It was shutting off and on fast, going through colors fast, just going crazy. So then on the iDMX, I switched the polarity. The rest is history. The gobos are controllable, pan etc. is all working.When I had just one cable hooked up, I tried switching the polarity and nothing happened.I even tried terminating the network!But everything is working now.So thanks to everyone for your help! Frank, Greg, Dan, and everyone else. Sorry if I bothered you. But you have helped me become more familiar with this stuff. Thanks again!!!Now programming..
