Failfunktion Strobe

Post by MX5Cruiser »

Hi@all,

I try to control my light equipment with FreeStyler.

Everything worked good until I tried to control my strobe(Eurolite 1500W).
I've set the DMX adress to 3, so the channels 3 and 4 should control the Strobe.
But when I control 3 nothing happens and by controlling 4 rate and brightness gets
controlled together.
So when I change the channel 4 from 0 to 255 the Strobe brighter and faster.

I also tried to use my Eurolite CLX 16 to control if there is a failure with the Strobe
or the dmx chain, but it worked well.

I use the JMS USB2DMX Interface.


Hope someone can help me with my problem.

Jerome

Thx for your request.
Both Channels send 0 to 255. I tried to use different dmx adresses. Now I can control both channels. But only when I set the dmx adress to 1. I control it with 2 and 3. I've set all other dmx equipment from 4 to xx.
I made also a termination resistor with 120Ohm.

But now I have one more problem.....
The strobe works good at low frequency, but if I have a higher frequency adjusting, it sets out again and again and is not evenly.
