  1. It got very late last night! However I am at home and ploughing through all the previous update information. I managed to update a few fixtures, but a lot are still refusing! However we have a lot of these! https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1008612/Ledj-Quad-Par-64.html#manual As our desk is used sporadically we can miss upgrades. I prefer not to do them too close to a show for obvious reasons. Many thanks for your help so far but I fear it isn't over yet. We tend to use a lot of 'disco' great because the venue is very small and theatre fixtures are too narrow.

  3. There is one thing, our RGBW LEDj PARs are coming up as RGBA which means the colours are wrong Oh there is one thing, our ancient LEDj RGBW PARs are coming up as RGBA so the colours come out wrong
  4. Thank you Edward. You might guess that I have jumped several versions so missed out on 7.11. I will try to work through. Would clearing the fixtures and reinstalling them clean be simpler way of doing it?
  5. I have just upgraded our desk FLX S48 to OS 7.13 and so far all looks fine except that the Mood Boards by Lee Filters do not work. I managed to leave the release notes at home and there may have been something there. The Colour/Colour Picker work as expected. Anyone any thoughts?
  6. Hi, I have a Jester ML and a Jester TLXtra to dispose of. I have not been fortunate enough to find a buyer even at near give away prices. Is there a way of recycling old desks? I tried to sell them on just before the pandemic but of course nobody was buying. Any advice would be welcome. Thanks, Terry
  7. OK, here goes. I can't tell you for the moment which hubs I have used. I will get back to you with that. Everything freezes, External and internal touch screens . Playback controls, literally everything is unresponsive. I did notice on two occasions that there was little run of fader lights as in a boot up but not the full desk. The monitor is a liyma touch screen and does not have a built in hub. I will sort out console details and get back to you Edward. I was going to bring the desk down to you just before the pandemic hit. I had to shield and I believe there were travel restrictions into Wales. So it got put off. Thanks for your reply
  8. I have been trying with variable success to use a USB hub, both powered and unpowered with our FLX S48. At the moment only one USB outlet is functioning so in order to have a touch screen monitor, keyboard and mouse, some sort of hub is required. Suddenly the desk will seize up during plotting and I have discovered the only solution is to remove the hub and plug the monitor only into the USB. Of course a reboot is necessary. Sadly this action wipes the fault logging. The desk was due to go back to Zero88 just as the pandemic hit. Hopefully we can get it back to you to repair the non-working USB outlet soon soon.
  9. Just to bring this to a conclusion, the console was not at fault. The problem lay within a powered USB hub that I was using with the desk. Although it had good reviews when I purchased it, subsequently people had a lot of issues with it. Using a passive hub brought no recurrence of the problem.
  10. I have sent this now. I would have done at the time but I didn't have access to USB C adaptor.
  11. It just did it again. This time I was in Faders and the console locked with the Z in a circle and a progress bar at about 60%. The first reboot failed and the second did produce an error message which I will forward tonight.
  12. Software 7.9.7 Co processor 2.2.0.0
  13. Hi Jon, No there wasn't a debug file offered. I have seen them before so I won't have missed it. I will check the desk later but I updated to the latest software just before I started on this show because I couldn't load the latest fixture file without it (?) I will check the information that you asked for when I get to the desk later today. If I try to reboot too early it just returns to the faulty state.
  14. Since installing the latest operating version on our FLX S48 it has been a really nice board to drive. However, on two occasions the desk has locked up with none of the buttons responding and the screen going blank. The external touch screen monitor does display the cues but does not respond. The only solution is to switch off for a full thirty seconds and then reboot. Anything less does not produce a clean reboot. Because the screen goes blank it is not possible to examine the event monitor before rebooting. Has anyone else had this little nasty? It has only happened so far while plotting.
  15. I do apologise as I know this has been covered before but I can't find the answer. S48 Desk. How do I copy a cue from a playback into the Master Playback please?
