F16v1.03 setup in XL/NC

[FireMedic4Christ]

My setup:  RPi -> FPD -> F16v1.03 x3 which programmed successfully.

All ports on the FPD setup to output pixelnet and I am able to run test patterns via the FPD.

XL/NC setup has 28 universes as E 1.31. Selecting all channels on the test page and running a test does nothing. FPD in bridge mode and output to lights checked.

Am I correct to set the controllers up as E 1.31 even though I am using pixel net?

[jnealand]

yes, Did click on the output to lights button in the top row?  It might be good to post a screen shot of your XL/NC setup page.

yes output to lights checked and FPD in bridge mode.

Any reason you're not running the latest v1.04 firmware?

I see something new came out on Nov27. I will have to read up. I'm likely not touching my 1.04 setup though until Jan 2

I updated the firmware to what was current at the time in early November. I will look into it, but I have things working now and really don't want to risk messing it up.

The problem came down to using multicast instead of unicast. Once that change was made, everything test fine now. I still have a channel assignment issue somewhere, but I can chase that down.

Thanks to all for the guidance.
