i have an enttec open dmx controller that i just bought. I can only seem to get my lights (4 chauvet colorsplash jr, 2 adj dynasty scans, 1 chauvet derby x) to work when i use the address as #1. If i address the other lights to a different adress they do not work at all. I know that they are all address correctly as they work on my regular chauvet controller. Please help!!!

Need all kinds of information extra:

Please give the DMX channel of each fixture and its number of DMX channels needed.
Try connecting just one fixture, see if that works.

Also read this topic:
Smart Scan 2 Not working to standard! Please Read

At the end the USB port of the laptop was the source of the problem. Maybe it did'nt give enough power, or something else did go wrong with that USB interface.
That user added another USB interface (expresscard) and it now works perfectly.

Ok guys thanks for the input. I figured out the addressing that i was using for my Chauvet controller wasnt apparently the same on used for the freestyler program. Thanks again all the input. I just need to figure out how get these lights to stop flickering!!!!!!!
