    Hi Simon,

    There are 3 different MIDI Protocols FLX supports. These are MIDI Timecode (MTC), MIDI Show Control (MSC) and MIDI Notes. All three can be used to trigger cues on the Master Playback. The article below goes through each of these, and how they can be configured on FLX...

    Hope this helps, if you have any questions just let me know.

    so my software can do basic MIDI channel messages (Note On, Program Change etc) but not MIDI Show Control so is it possible with these to just trigger a GO on the main playback?

    Hi Simon,

    There isn't a way of undoing updates. Currently there is no way of importing certain parts of a show file.

    Best practice before doing updates, is to ultimately save your show file, but also copy your Master Playback to a different playback, as a backup. You can then copy from this backup, back over the top of the Master playback.

    That's a shame. I always save my show file but might make a few changes as the show is running. Too much of a faff to save after every change.

    Can you copy cues between different playbacks?

    Just after I updated to 7.9.5, I tried to use Artnetominator to check it. My FLX showed up in Artnetominator, and Artnetominator showed up as a node on the FLX.  I couldn't see any levels though.  I need to have a bit more of a play.

    did the universes show up in green on the LHS?

    Cant seem to get artnet or sacn to work. Any ideas?

     

    edit, got sacn to work. What node are you using?

    It doesn't work on my desk and Edward organised a demo desk and it doesn't work on that one either. I was just wondering if anyone had upgraded the software and had it working.

    Hi Simon,

    Art-Net does seem to be working correctly in ZerOS 7.9.5. After loading in your show file with Art-Net transmitting, have you disabled and then enabled Art-Net again?

    If this problem is persisting please email your ZerOS 7.9.5 show file that isn’t working, along with a brief description of your network to support@zero88.com, and we’ll be able to investigate your issue further. 

    Any queries just let us know.

    Hi Edward,

    I tried installing 7.9.5 and the same occurred. I have a link showing on my Artnet node but no activity. I set up a simple patch with my 15 LED PARS on universes 1 and 2 just to see but nothing shows up in the system info network page unlike 7.9.4 where it shows the streaming info.

    I've attached my file to see if I'm doing anything wrong. I've plugged the desk direct to the Artnet node bypassing my network.

    Hi Simon,

    To confirm, are you finding Art-Net isn't working on your physical console?

    Art-Net is working on physical consoles running ZerOS 7.9.5, however not on Phantom ZerOS with an unlock dongle.

    Edward

    Hi Edward,

    yes this is on my FLX.

    Steaming ACN and Artnet no longer works. I have only tried on phantom with my unlock dongle and will try on the console later this week,  when i downgrade to Zeros 7.9.4 it works fine again.

    this is rendering the phantom and unlock dongle useless as i cant control my fixtues i hope it is not the same story for the console.

    i did highlight the problem in the beta group, I asume the fix never made it to the release.

    cheers

     

    Me too. Can't upgrade to get the new fx as Artnet isn't working.

    As a side note, FLX shouldn't be connected to the Internet.

     

    Why is this? I have a technical network set up which enables me to talk to both my lighting and sound desks but also lets me receive emails and calls as there is no mobile coverage on the edge of a cliff.

  9. Hi Edward,

     

    It's not the palette copy that I'm after. What I used to be able to do on an old strand and I think the old Frog would be to copy all attributes from one fixture to another. The copy button on the frog IIRC used to have both channel and playback facility. The Strand desk had a copyfrom button so in syntax would be 58@copyfrom65enter and it would put 65 exactly as 58.
