Enttec Pro mkII - standalone file

Just got the interface & FS. I have been able to get scenes working with a couple of lights so far. I want to use the Pro mkII standalone capability and need to get FS to load the 'show' file to the mkII to be saved in its eprom. The FS help has a section 'upload scene' which seems to refer to this functionality with a button to activate in the scene editor. However, the MkII isn't mentioned and the button doesn't appear in the scene editor.

Can FS upload the necessary file to the mkII or generate a file that can be loaded via Enttec DMX Pro Manager? I am not sure what format the file has to be - a demo file from the Enttec web site had the suffix '.eshow'.

Apologies if I should have found the answer somewhere but my searches haven't revealed it.

You need to make a show in Freestyler and send this to the interface. Therefore you need a second interface. One to output and one to do an input. I have an Enttec Pro MK1 and MK2 so that worked for me.

You can record your show in Enttec Pro Manager.

Sorry I missed this reply earlier. I have found a solution which is to setup freestyler to use art-net then use ENTTEC Pro Manager to record the 'show'. This method avoids the need for a second interface.
