Help - DMX Widget is not active

Running windows 7, 32 bit.
Link light on the widget is on, but none of the other ones are.
Patched a couple of desk channels to the DP8000 then went into the settings and domain 1 sees the widget (Single Widget 2671).
On the Network view the DMX Processor states Yes, Yes, & Running

Checked output and I can see dmx values change on the screen - but the widget is still not outputting anything.

Help.

Thanks,
Ross

  • Hello, if only the LINK LED is on it doesn't sound like the widget is configured properly.

    Section 30.3 or page 346 of the latest manual explains how to configure a Widget. This is done in the NETWORK WINDOW.
    You will need to have fixtures patched before doing the steps below.

    Press SETUP->NETWORK.
    Highlight the NET NUMBER under the DMX PROCESSOR line in the Network Window and press SETTINGS.
    Select WIDGET OUTPUTS
    Select the WIDGET # from pop down box #1

    If this is correct, you may try taking the pop down box to NONE and pressing APPLY and then reselecting the Widget Number and pressing APPLY.

    If you press the BEACON button next to the pop down box, it should make all of the LEDs on the widget flash.
