Sean, please check for late enrollees.  I am looking for the zoom address and don't know where to look. I assume the email that I have in my xlights store account?

Ditto on this Sean. 
I also signed up late and never got info on Meeting ID for Zoom login. I did email xlights@nutcracker123.com reporting the same problem and forwarded my invoice from PayPal.

Thanks,
Paul

Colonelcline:
My name is bullets (aka Paul) and I've been googling myself silly for weeks! lol

Seriously, I've been trying for weeks to get my 4 CCB's into a DMX network and to work in xLights.  After reading your post I'm still a bit confused about setup and I was hoping you had a few moments to clarify.

"LOR S3 is the only thing looking at ID's and since there is no handshake you could have multiple ID's on the same network. They play the same things." -
Does this mean that all of the CCB's will be doing the same output?

"LOR S3 and the e 1.31 network interfaces don't care about  ID's so you could have many ID 1's. They all get sent the data for ID1 and  thru the com or ip# as sequenced".
How are you doing it??? Are you using an LOR 485 Dongle with a cross over cable?  Are you using something else like a SanDevices E682 in DMX mode?  I have both.

"If you only have CCB's in 1 universe, ID 1 = 1-150 and ID 0B = 161-320 and ID 15 = 321-470 works OK. Gets confusing for me when I have 16h boxes in a Universe too."
How many CCB's are you using and what ID's are you using?  What are the other 16 boxes you are using and how are you connecting them?

Thanks

Thank you sooooo much for the detailed explanation of what needs to be done!  That's exactly what I was looking for.

I have 3 LOR CMB24's that are currently running on the LOR network.  I ordered crossover cables, because it's my understanding that’s what I have to do in order to get them to work with DMX and xLights/Nutcracker.

I have 4 SanDevice E682's and 2 of the E684's… so I can hook them up the way you described.  Could you please go into better detail with regards to wiring from the E682 to the CMB24? Also, I am using 5 LOR USB-RS485 HS dongles, so if I understand you correctly… out of the dongle would be a cross over cable… then what?

This is only the tip of the iceberg for me.  I have 10 CCR's and 4 CCB's that I have to get running in DMX in order to use xLights\Nutcracker. 

By the way, everything works great in LOR.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!
