How does this Work? [Fixed]

Postby Pink LD » 09 February 2015, 05:30

It has been awhile since I have used StandAlone but it has become necessary again for 3 uses:

1. A crash scene while I reboot
2. Tour load in tester before rails/linesets fly to Jeebus
3. Using tour rig for worklights in inconsiderate/inexperienced festival settings

But for the life of me I can't figure out how to get this work. Even after searching forum and reading the manual. Can anybody help explain step by step how to upload a stand alone scene?

Let me add that when I go to the Standalone tab while connected to one of my box hubs everything is greyed out on the page for universe 1. In universe 2-6 choices are not greyed out. I can choose scenes 1-16, I can enable/disable etc, but nothing for universe one. I am really perplexed and confused about it.

What do you mean? What type of hubs do I have? I have the older square metal boxes. The ones that support wing DMX input.

This interface is not able to drive 512 dmx channels, in standalone mode (it can drive up to 100 dmx channels).
V7 is not able to manage the standalone functions of this interface.
Please use V6 to upload scenes in this interface.

My box can only manage 100 channels and only via V6 of ShowXpress. That explains a lot. Thanks.
I can't use it as I was thinking, but it isn't that hard to hook it up to one of my 10 inch convertible PCs to do run a custom built test scene.

This is all good. I will mark this as fixed and concerning a square metal box hub.
Thanks!
Update: I see you already moved the topic to Interface-Box
