I have discovered an interesting problem with my school's XLS. I was trying to set up a Demux 48 with 2 dimmer packs so our Fat Frog could be used in the classroom for an exam. The xls there has been running on analogue and I had the idea of using the demux all the time and connecting the xls with dmx instead so either desk could easily be used. However, no matter what I tried, the XLS refused to drive the demux. Eventually, I grapped the frog from the main hall where it was set up for something else and it worked fine, so the cabling, demux and dimmers are fine. Is there any possible reason (except for a loose wire inside) why the xls dmx doesn't work?
Cheers and sorry for the ramble
