Hi guys.
I have that message on my device under the IN/OUT tab. It's an enttec OPEN DMX.
When I refresh (under setting) the device, it goes to GOOD.
But after a undefined period of time, it goes back again to BAD.
What does it mean and can I fix it ?
Would a enttec PRO USB improve that ?

I experience no flickering during a show, only if I hot plug/unplug the device.

If you don't experience problems, then don't worry :)

can you switch power management to full power (maximum performance?)
what is your HW configuration (CPU/RAM)? What CPU load do you have (see task manager, CTRL+SHIFT+ESC, tab performance)?

Well, I have very small issues ( I manage to get aground all).
Especially with the show editor, sequence not playing up (no light).
But now I experience also color merging between tracks (between a track with RVB matrice and a track with a scene).
So I think my hardware could also be part of that issues.

Win 10, 8GB RAM, corei3.

Here is a snap of my system while running a show:

Hi,

Try to use the DMX Monitor. This will help you locate the issue.

If the DMX monitor shows the same values as you see on your physical lights, then the issue is not you hardware :)

Thanks.
I did it as you mention and it seems that the dmx out reflect my light.

Doing that I was able to snap shot that weird issue.
Here is the picture:

-scene "mon petit noel blanc" is playing.
-sequence "feu chaud" on track 2 continue to light up after its end on the track (I snap while on "play").

The DMX out confirm it. It should be to zero as I setted the duration of the sequence before.

Then this has nothing to do with your hardware or the internal clock precision :)

Could you open another thread with this new issue, and attach you workspace file there ?

Thanks

I'll do that. :roll:
Feel free to clean up here or I do it if you prefer.
I am still working on it trying to understand what 's happening and try to reproduce the issues.
Will open the new thread as soon as I can give more info.



EDIT: cancel this issue, I was runing the 4.10.1 by mistake. :P
4.10.3 TEST reinstalled and no more issue for the endless sequence.

Tell me If I need to cleen the thread. :ugeek:
