The Lighting Controller

Hello there...

I have a problem with DMX patch in version 6.22.

When i do nothing, my external DMX controller doesn't work (plugged into the dmx in).
If I go to DMX Patch -> Assign channel in "DMX input priority", then my external controller controls the light for the selected channel, but the soft doesn't anymore...
If I put the channel into "Software priority", software's in control, external controller doesn't work.
If I put the channel into "Highest level mode", software's in control, external controller doesn't work.



How can I use them with REAL highest level mode like it was in version 5???

Thanks

- self explanatory, the DMX input has priority over the software so the software wont have control over this channel.

The controller will work if the channel in the software isn't active. (see my video on active channels for more on this)

I can't say much about this as it worked when I last did it. But that was in V5. Support may be able to lend a hand here. But I hope I cleared up some "jargon"

We just checked the three different modes:
- "dmx input" works
- "highest level" works
- "software" has a problem. Effectively, when the channel is not active in Live, the dmx input should take over the channel, and it does not. This is a bug. Unfortunately, we could fix it only after 14 of August (sorry for this).
