Enttec Pro Problem..

Post by Goochie »

Hi Guys, been using this Enttec Pro for a while with no problems...
Programming the other night and all is well, set up again tonight to do some more programming and all lights are permanently on 'strobe' ??
Have changed and swapped around all cables, Power & DMX Link cables, still the same?
Have traced it back to the Enttec Pro, swapped with old Enttec Open I keep as back up and can get it working but not as good (its an old one).
have even tried to re-install drivers.. same strobing, cannot get any fixture on full light up??
So my question is... Has anybody else had same problem with the Enttec Pro?
Does anybody have any idea's what I can do? busy weekend coming up...
are these units repairable?

Thanks in advance guys..
Goochie

Very Strange, I am now on Enttec Pro Manager programme and it works on there, so Strobing problem HAS to be in freestyler !!
What have I done or what setting is wrong in FS?
Why are all lights strobing permanently?

I had similiar problem few times. I thought my DMX Pro is failed.

There is simple solution - use Enttec Pro Utility (you can download it from Enttec website) and do some experiment with Packet output Rate, MAB and break time.
That's always works form mi.

Do you have any control over the lights even though they start up strobing? Have you looked at the output window to see what signal is being sent? I own about 7 Enttec Pro Dongles and have never experienced that problem.

If it is a USB sometimes the dry joints can crack where the USB Cable connects. This can causes intermittent dmx signal and can cause the fixtures to spaz out.
