Techie We do use a terminator the problem occurs when there is a long chain of fixtures . No problem with a small number of fixtures when I would assume the signal was stronger Des

Thanks Edward. Look forward to sorting this in the New Year The unit doesn't come with a PSU and I cannot find the appropriate one on the varilite websie. I don't think a solution desk PSU will work Des

This is an ongoing problem dicussed previously with Edward has anyone else encountered this? Using our new Gateway 4 with 2 universes With about 25 fixtures on universe 1 the DMX seems to become unstable lights flash on and off or don't detect a signal. With only 10 in the chain they are fine. We have updated to software update 7.14. 1 it removed several curious problems What we have done Installed new BT line so the data use is limited & all on cat6 cable Taken 4 Zero 88 dimmer racks out of the chain and put them on universe 2 Tidied up all the DMX cables above the stage to minimise distance We have two Chauvet Ovation F-55FC when in the chain they do not recognise a DMX signal the selecon PLI's either side do. When at the end of a short chain they do pick up a signal and work correctly We have tried different network cables connecting the Gateway directly into the switch. The remote apps work perfectly indicating the network is fine However the system works perfectly with copper wire universe 1 and 2 from FLX and Solution desks so it does not indicate a DMX cable problem Our conclusion is that as the system works perfectly with copper wires the DMX signal provided by the Gateway is of low strength. Is this likely ? Have you encountered this before? Is there anyway we can test the unit or should we send it backZero88 ? Has anyone else encountered this problem? Des George Neuadd Dyfi Aberdyfi

WE have a similar problem did you get it fixed?
