I have gotten the controllers setup done and I think the configurations (universes and outputs) are on the controllers now. Much easier than the manual way I did it last year. I am still struggling to understand how to play a show without the PC. My configuration is a BBB with FPP and a serial output to some renard lights (I may or may not use this this year). This BBB also has the music files and is connected to the transmitter. FPP is in MASTER mode. It does not have any LED's attached to it. Next is a Kulp F32-B that runs most of the show. Last year I ran this in remote mode. There are 2 F8-B with a few strings on them also in remote mode. I am adding a tune to sign using a BBB and an octoscroller. I have made each controller work with their respective light strings separately on test sequences. What I can't seem to figure out is how to get the sequences to the BBB's in the right way. I do not want to have to run the show off of a PC. I like the way the FPP scheduler works and it is easier for me to keep the network separate with the BBB's. I have found the controller upload but how does it know which one is the master and what modes they are all supposed to work in? OR have just over-complicated it and xlights just knows what parts of each sequence goes on each controller? Sorry for being long winded.

In case anyone else doesn't find this obvious the same FSEQ file goes on all the controllers and they play correctly. Now if I could figure out how to get the renard controller to work...
