WARN: Multiple outputs (2) with same universe/id number 0 - where how to find ??

Newbie again,  :-(  What does this error mean in Check Sequence  ??

Multiple outputs with same universe/id number
    WARN: Multiple outputs (2) with same universe/id number 0. If using #universe:start_channel result may be incorrect.

Where do I look to find and how to cure it, as I cannot see anything like it in any model settings.

Outputs are listed in the Setup tab.  Look down the Universe/ID column for a duplicate of 0.

Thanks Gil, Found  :-)  One of them being a Renard chain, of which I have two.  Both are now on "1" after an edit to correct the "0" warning.  The problem being Renards do not use universes, so I guess having two with a start of "1" should not be a problem since they are on serial ports   :-)

Well I thought Keith provided a way that you could change those as IDs even when its not a universe.  I believe the problem is you can refer to the output with the #20:1 type notation for start channels so if you have two entries that are the same then it prevents you from using that notation.

Checking on my last years setup (2017:41),  that column was titled "Baud Rate / Universe No." so Keith has re-titled the columns in 2018:27 or so to "Port" and "Universe/Id".  This must have confused the data when I opened last years sequence in the new updated version, and has placed the "Com Port & Baud rate" in the same column.  So the question now is ??  "What should I set the Universe/Id to for the Renards ??"  :-)

A. It’s only a warning. Technically as long as you aren’t useing #0:startchannel you can just ignore it.
B. Any number that doesn’t clash with a universe will be fine. I generally use 64000 and up.
