Hi,
Firstly, I'm a very newbie to this so go simply and slowly with any advice and excuse any wrong vocabulary.
We have a Solution control desk linked to suite of Chilli dimmers (about 30 dimmers in 2 racks and a 3rd rack with straight switches). All our lights are old non-fixtures (mix of fresnels, Pars and spots) and the Chilli dimmers and their associated power circuits are all numbered so no confusion about connection between control fader >> chilli dimmer >> light. Setup has worked fine for a couple of years, certainly when I last used it for a production in January. So far as I know it's not been touched since.
Today, I found that some faders on the control desk are working the wrong lights. e.g. fader 1 brings on light 1 and light 26. These are on different physical lighting bars so no confusion about which sockets they're plugged into.
Just in case, I installed the current ZeroOS upgrade (to 7.8?) but that had no effect.
So:
1) Can't find instructions in Chilli manual to set/confirm DMX channel for each dimmer in the rack.
2) Lots of instructions for patching fixtures for the Solution but couldn't recognise anything to help me.
How do I diagnose what's wrong?
Thanks,
Simon.
