Unable to output lights to controller

[driedel13]

I have two controllers - one HinksPix Pro and one AlphaPix 16.  Two years ago they both worked great in Xlights.  Since then I've replaced the PC that I use for Xlights and that powers my show.  Now I can only get the AlphaPix 16 to work correctly in test mode and I can't get either one to work when I Output to Lights from Xlights or try to run a show from xSchedule64.  I hope it's something simple that I missed or was changed in xlights a couple years ago.

Any help would be appreciated!

Have you tried see if you can reach the controller? Run the ping command from the command prompt in windows to see if you can "reach" the controller. also remember you need to have a hub switch in between computer and controller, at least for the alpha pix. As for the other one, I'm not familiar with. I'm gonna guess it's the same tho.

I have the same problem but maybe for a different reason.  I cannot output lights to controller because my Mac operating system is blocking xlights from reaching them.  I have no issues when running on a Windows machine, only with MACOS Sequoia.
