KU1 DMX out issue

Post by tracyu »

I have a KU1. I'm trying to test the DMX output with my miniDMXter4 test device. however whenever I activate scene's I see no DMX output from the unit. I have also tried using the Tools application text tab and don't see anything on the output. My cables are wired correctly. I am able to connect to the unit with my USB cable. It appears to read and write to the data card.
Another question, Can I use the tools test tab to verify the DMX address of the fixtures I'm attempting to control?
Thanks!

Hello

It's not possible to check the address number of the fixture because our interfaces are not RDM compatible, only DMX. I suggest to patch 512 single channel fixtures in ESA Pro and set them all to 100%. If you still have no output, it could be a problem with your DMX chip. An easy way to check this is to swap the 2 DMX chips. More information on where the chips are located can be found in the STICK datasheet
