Have been very pleased with the progress of QLC+ and been building a workspace for use at my church. Just bought a BCF2000 and set it up last night. For the most part I have it set up and like the way it works but can't seem to figure out how to change pages with the 2K. Was real excited when I found the page widgets and created a frame to emulate the 2K (knobs, buttons, and faders). Can change pages on the computer but not from the 2K. When capturing the (frame/page/[previous/next]) channels with Auto Detect, the buttons (bottom buttons in the lower right corner of the 2K) are discovered and saved but depending on the page, (93: Button 10 Bottom (Page 3)) has the page number attached and page control in QLC+ seems to only accept a single input for previous and next. Going live, the buttons don't do anything. In U-2 mode.

Have tried to edit the profile but when I edit the profile it changes the number of the control (example: top left knob captures as 65538 but if I try to edit it, the number changes to 65535 and won't increment with the up arrow control and if I delete a number, will only allow 4 digits so any changes to channel get ignored because the real knob still transmits as 65538.

Using QLC+ 4.5.1 on Mac OSX 10.8.5

Fantastic program… waiting for the next compile to have sub masters ???

After the new year, planning on sharing my workspace and configs. Really helpful to look at examples when starting out to figure out how things work but too few examples uploaded. (everyone, get a login and please share your work spaces)

Using 12 PARS, 10 ADJ 64 LED Plus, 2 AGT 64s, 4 ADJ Mega Tri Bar (54ch mode) and a generic RGB for LED strip light with El cheapo entec usb dongle (but thinking about trying artnet and want to try dmx/0-10v for our fluorescent house lights)

Prior to buying 2K, saw somewhere an example of setting up the 2K to change pages buy setting up 2 buttons on the 2K, but since getting it can't find it. have searched the discussions and youtube. Anyone else recall seeing something like that or knows how to do it and will share it? THANKS

Got it working in Windows 7 and was able to setup the page changing assignment without any trouble. Saved the work and transferred to the mac and paging would not work. Can page from the computer but not from the 2K.

Hello to you.
As written in the documentation, assigning controller buttons to change pages is not enough. Did you modify the BCF2000 profile and set "next page" and "previous page" associations ?

Yes I figured it out on the PC but I could not edit the profile on the Mac

On OSX, profiles are bundled into the DMG, so you cannot modify them.
You need to copy the BCF2000 profile in your QLC+ user profile directory
