Is there anyway without buying the DMX board to have Light Jockey control this Hazer. Maybe ethernet into it from a computer?

2d plan and real world!

Hye

I have 4 stairvile mh100. They are suspended the head in direction of the floor on my truss.
Their position is center, so that their screen is in front of the stage (me :wink: )
When i create a cue for having them panning from left to right, in real, it's ok.
But when i want the same in 2d plan, i need to move the fixture as you seen in the screen below.
(picture has been taken with a center pan and a center tilt (45°)

Is it normal ?
Thanks by advance
Eric

Dmx-in flicker

@Fredrik_Thorn wrote:

I'm having some problems with dmx in on my light jockey computer. We are running light jockey on a win 7 computer, we have a 12ch board going in to our dongle, from there on to a dmx split and then to five 4-ch dimmer packs.

If we are running directly from the board to the split without the dongle everything works fine, if we run it from light jockey everything works great. BUT when we run the board trough lj using dmx in and patching in global patch using fader one to control 1 ch on the dimmerpack and so on we get a flicker in the lights. With between 1-10min all the dimmer channel that is on goes full off and back again.

Anyone has any ideas on what is wrong?

Fixture color values default zero

@Jeroen wrote:

Hello,
I made a profile for the mini head Beamz MHL74. All works fine but the colors are default at 100%. Changing the default value to 1 or 0 does not fix this? How can I make this work so when I clear the programmer, all color levels are zero?

Thank you!

M-touch buttons not changing colour to match what is loaded

Just wondering if it is just me or, are the flash buttons not capable of changing colour to match what is loaded into them? (ie: red for cue, blue for chase, purple for override).

How to get independent programming with networked consoles?

$

@Action_Joe wrote:

When we go out and do big shows we like to network our M2-Go with our Surface pro / M-Touch so that we can have multiple operators to split up the workload of busking for larger electronic music festivals. However... we've been getting kinda frustrated that the two consoles share a programmer section. It has happened a few times where somebody was programming a cue and the other operator inadvertently pushed something into the programmer unbeknownst to the other individual making the cue, which ends up screwing things up. We've ended up having to coordinate and designate one board for programming and one just for playbacks so that they don't step on eachothers toes. Is there any way to get around this and have two martin consoles controlling the same show with independent programmers? I know it would be possible to achieve this by not networking them and instead using a dmx merger but it ends up being a pain in the butt because they end up having wildly different show files, instead of sharing one identical show file with all the goods on it.

Screen layouts and resolutions

@jason wrote:

Is it possible to change the screen resolution on the M6?

Also, is it possible to set the size of the grids to a fixed size - they currently automatically resize depending on the available screen resolution. So, I'm wanting to keep a fixed number of colums (say 10) even if I resize the windows (for playback, groups, cuelists etc)

thanks

Program - FX Macros

$

@jason wrote:

How can we create new FX's similar to the built in library ones. I ask because these FX can be applied to any fixture, where as if I create a FX for a cue list, I need to build for a group or selected fixtures.

Or is there a trick to be able to create a similar color effect (as in FX Macro library) that can be applied to ANY group of fixtures on demand (great when busking).

Also, as a bit of knowledge sharing, I've used the FX macros for color effects across my fixtures and then saved the look (including FX timing and groups etc) to a preset, but without the speed value. I've then created a separate override CL with just the speed channel, and assigned this to a fader. That way I can control the effect speed via the fader, regardless of the color "look" preset ... works well :slight_smile:

thanks

Scalable Playback label width

$

@Danny_Tomaske wrote:

I always find myself touching the wrong fader or button because the width of the Playback label area doesn't fit with the Playback Faders on M2GO. It would be great to set the width of that area by the user to have it always in top of the Playback.
This would also be helpful for MPC or M Touch.

I can't export my screen layout from M2GO to MPC. Running version 3.52.718.0
Tried it the following way: Menu>Screen Layouts>Save Screen Layouts>Choose USB Drive and export
At MPC>Menu>Screen Layouts >Load>Choose USB drive and file "My screen settings"
Nothing happens. Both screens have the same resolution. What am I doing wrong?

Attribute Groups

@Danny_Tomaske wrote:

It would be great to get an option to let the user select what attributes were activated together. Simple example. Many fixtures have a CMY or RGB color mixing system and additionally some Colorwheel's, but these attributes were not activated together. I always store all attributes to presets to prevent tracking issues in cuelist. Same for Position, Rotation and Zoom of media server layers. I know I can use Load to load all values into the programmer but I would love to have a persist option for this.

M2PC touch screen doesn't recognize touch

@Scott_LeBeau wrote:

Has anyone had issues with their touch screen not working after the latest update? It will toggle through intensity, FX's, and grouping if you select them through your page layout, but it will not recognize the touch on the M2PC side. I've double check all the firmware and it's updated. Thoughts on what to look at next?

Win 10 - Driver Fix

@Matthias wrote:

This is a specific fix for a driver issue with a clean Windows 10 - Build 1607 installation. This can be a clean reinstall or a reset of Windows.
Due to some changes in Windows driver enforcement the driver will show as not signed and you get an error during install of M-PC:

Uninstall the current driver package from the PC in the "Program and Features"

Install the corrected 32 or 64 bit version from there https://martinprofessional.box.com/s/8qbgjjhe7a3281kkooou

Unless the error shows during installation and the JUNGO device manager entry shows a yellow attention mark there is no need to replace the driver. There is no change to the actual driver or the software.

MPCTools Crashes when moving joystick

$

@Felizardo_Bojorquez wrote:

Hi.

I recently got a Extreme 3D Pro joystick by Logitech. Buttons are working well, all fuction assignments are fine. There is not allowed any axis configuration, so I assume that stick is only for PT movement, like trackball.

The thing is, when joystick is ready and activated to work with M-PC, MPCtools crashes immediately when stick is moved in any direction.

Also, there is a D-pad on top, and a side twisting axis on stick, both unrecognized by MPCtools.

¿How can I make it work?

Thanks!
