Artnet dmxking edmx1 strange behavior

Post by scottbarnhill »

Hi all, I am running into an issue were my artnet lights through a dmxking edmx1 only updates every other static update change. Anybody have any ideas? maybe a timing mismatch? Thanks, Scott

2/16/2013 4:49:48 AM I am running into a problem where if changing colors by the clicking preset rgb colors lights update every other change. Light will change if sliders are dragged. I have isolated the problem to artnet, USB interface works flawlessly. What should the rdm discovery settings be set at? Thanks again-Scott

2/16/2013 9:04:17 PM Maybe the lights are having trouble with fast DMX output rates. We have made some minor adjustments to the DMX timing in a new firmware version.
Download these 2 files (the 2nd one just in case you want to revert to v1.0)

Instructions for updating firmware can be found in the user manual.

4/20/2013 2:04:37 AM Hi I updated the firmware on the edmx1 but I am still running into the problem. Only every second static update makes its way to the universe. This problem is only present using the artnet output. If I use a USB adaptor no problem exists which makes be belive it has something to do with the refresh timing or network settings. Continuous updates and fades update on the lights ok but quick instant static commands like a blackout or overrides don't work property. This is very frustrating. Thanks for your help.

4/20/2013 2:16:25 AM I can drag fader values and commands make there way to the light due to it being a continuously changing value the same holds true if I select a rgb color by clicking and dragging in a color graph but if I select colors by preset color boxes or by using override buttons only ever other different command makes its way to the lights.
