Title: Newbie question - AC light setup like LOR
Post by: WM8C on October 21, 2020, 03:21:17 PM

Hi! I am brand new to this world. The past two years I have used a simple controller (Asante Tap-Tap II) and phone app for my light show and this year I stepped into this world with a 16 zone AC controller from Holiday Coro with the HinksPix controller. I have not yet made the foray into RGB but maybe next year.

For now, I am totally confused on how to use xlights to setup and configure my AC LED lights as a simple 16 channel sequence. I have the controller configured and talking with the software but after watching many videos, I feel like I understand some of the RGB stuff but I am getting even more confused as to how to setup my show for the 16 channels single LED channels I will using for this year. I understand in the sequencing that I will only be using the AC toolbar so that's not the issue. It's creating, configuring the channels I don't understand and then the next steps after that. I have my basic layout set up on my house in the software, I have to add a singing santa I bought from Holliday Coro yet to it which I believe is a custom and uses 3 channels.

Please help...I'm stuck!

Hi Keith and thanks for the reply. Forgive my ignorance but how/where do I "pop into zoom"? Thanks  :)
