Make a cup of tea, come back, and it should have finished downloading 🙂 Quote Edward Smith Product Specialist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian_p Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 Hi Edward - the download progress bar completes - and file appears downloaded with the name as above - I've tried a few times - and waited a good long time - nothing changes... The first time was about 25 minutes ago... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I click on the file to download it, and then go to my File Explorer Downloads folder, it takes about 30 seconds for the file to download and show "ZerOS-7.14.exe". The file should be 219,707 KB once downloaded. If the issue persists, please try a different browser. Before downloading the file, hold CTRL and press F5 to refresh the webpage, and try again.

Ian_p Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 Edward, it was the MS Edge browser - fails everytime - Chrome downloaded it on first attempt. I won't be using Edge anymore! Thanks Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was using Chrome too. 13 minutes ago, Ian_p said: it was the MS Edge browser - fails everytime Hmm - looks like MS Edge is being very fussy about this file. After downloading the file from MS Edge, you have to click on the file download top-right of MS Edge, click "..." and then click "Keep"... I have reported this file as safe to MS Edge, so hopefully this won't cause problems for others. 1 Quote Edward Smith Product Specialist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
van den abbeele Eric Posted July 12, 2023 Report Share Posted July 12, 2023 Hello very happy to see this new update. I'm going to download it and install it on my second FLX to see what happens... is it possible to try this new version with a session file from version 7.13? In any case, it's fully positive to see the stability of version 7.13. I was able to do all of my shows this year without worries. And on the last three, I was able to use the same file (Fixture, Colors, Beam, Shapes, Positions, Effect and Groups) by erasing only the Playlists. And everything worked fine... Which is completely reassuring. Thank you to the whole team for making the best progress despite the workload you have. And happy holidays to all...

Jakob Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 With OSC output you could use the console as master trigger for others devices tih OSC in. For example: You are in a conference setting and turn off the lights and start a video from QLAB... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean Pauly Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 Hi there, I want to update an flx s24 console with very old software. System info on the console says: OS version 7.8.1.2 Software version 7.9.9 Is it necessary to use a bootable USB drive using the ZerOS USB creator? But in the description it says that “This process cannot be used on FLX S consoles.”, so now I don’t know what to do. Can you help me out?

Jon Hole Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 3 hours ago, Jean Pauly said: Software version 7.9.9 This is the bit which matters - so just follow the instructions for “Consoles running ZerOS 7.8.3 or later” Quote Jon Hole Global Product Manager, Systems and Control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
