#lighthack OSC encoder not talking to EOS Element 2 console.

Is this the original box? What says the diagnostic (TAB 99), does the handshake work?

I'm not sure. The instructions said to install the drivers in admin mode if it didn't connect right away. But with the new firmware, the logout function seems to have changed to maybe a different menu?  I didn't see any diagnostics that came up. I'm fishing here quite a bit. My friend that built it for me made up a program to connect to his computer and it makes the computer look like an element 2. When he plugged in the unit, it fired up and you could see ran, tilt etc. But pluging into the board at he theater is nothing currently.

Uhm, install drivers where? On the console?

Don't.

Only #lighthack boxes witch use an Arduino UNO or MEGA will work with consoles. All others not or maybe under special circumstances.
