The Lighting Controller

Yes, I did everything the manual said to the t and no dice. I did take one of the Stingers up to Guitar Center today and hooked it up to an Elation DMX controller (hardware). The laser worked perfectly.

The only thing I haven't tried yet is a dmx termination just in case it would have something to ...

I will keep you informed.

Okay, so I have tried everything that the omnisistem tech told me and it still doesn't work. He said he thinks it's a problem with Showxpress as they test every Stinger that leaves the shop using Daslight (They make the Stingers when you order them).

So he said if we return the Stinger and it works ...

With regard to the refresh rate. The streaming frequency is adjustable if you go in to settings - other - streaming frequency.

I tried to mess with that setting to no avail......

Also, is there any way possible that not terminating the signal could cause this problem?

Okay I talked to the tech at Omnisistem and told him that both Stinger lasers are not responding. I asked him if there was any weird dmx mode setting or anything and he said not at all; he confirmed I had it set up right.

He told me that I need to be able to change the refresh rate in Showxpress ...

It's fine; i'll get it worked out. If for some reason they cannot help me out I will return it and go with a different laser.....maybe one from x laser.

'hi
do u use the single color stinger? or the multi color stinger?
what did you set for channel 1? if the manual is correct it should be between 131 and 170 (beam on) if u use a single color laser,
channel 3 should be higher than dmx value 10 pattern select (between 0-9 its beam off)
channel 2 ...

Same thing with the other Stinger :evil:

I don't see any possible way that it could be Showxpress or the controller. All of the other fixtures work with it just fine. I will be calling Omnisistem back tomorrow.

Either:
1. The guy I was talking to does not know what he's talking about; he said I ...

Yes, I have other fixtures. I have not had any troubles with any of the other fixtures except the rocket laser where the dmx levels in the manual did not match the results when those levels were sent.

I will update the thread later after I test with the other stinger that I will have today.
