Lone star moving light

So I work with a high school theater and I’m new to a proper system. I moved one of our Lonestar moving lights from above Stage to our catwalk, and I tried it on its original patch and it is not working. I’m asking for guidance on how to either patch this light or figure out where I went wrong.

  • What may have happened is that your new location may have a different DMX Universe than the old location. Where did you plug the dmx cable into on the catwalk? Try and follow the dmx cable back to the DMX port it orginates from. If it goes thru several fixtures, thats ok, just see where the DMX cables end up. Hopefully it will be a DMX gateway/Node wirh a display that says which universe its set to. 

    Best to post a photo of the box the dmx cable is connected to, and also from your console patch display.
