light factory

can anyone tell me why my 4 isolution 5s fixtures go straight into strobe mode as soon as light factory starts up. I can turn them off and control them in a bank of 4 but can't control them seperately without the other 3 going back into strobe mode, Help::::::::::

Sounds like backwards DMX - swap pins 2 and 3

cheers fella, have tried swapping 2 and 3 over but makes no difference. when your in channel display pannel all fixtures are in strobe when blacked out weather a DMX lead is plugged in or not. its almost like there default setting ????

Could be an issue with the fixture personality.

... as soon as light factory starts up.

 

You better bring this up in the LightFactory forum. Go to lightfactory_software, or through LF homepage: lightfactory.net. It is short turnover of replies there, even from the developer(s).

I can't find the channel mapping info for these online, but there do seem to be two versions; one using a discharge lamp and the other using a tungsten lamp. Are you sure you are using the correct profile?
