Checking Sequence Question
« on: November 19, 2021, 06:19:21 PM »
I am very new to Xlights and all things pixel light related. I have been following some tutorials and ran a Check Sequence based on one tutorial and there were no errors however this one message got me nervous....

IP Address we are outputting data from: 192.168.0.129
If your PC has multiple network connections (such as wired and wireless) this should be the IP Address of the adapter your controllers are connected to. If it isn't your controllers may not receive output data.
If you are experiencing this problem you may need to set the local IP address to use.

IP Addresses on this machine:
    192.168.0.129

Working in a backup directory
    No problems found

Potentially problematic settings
    No problems found

Inactive Controllers
    No problems found

Multiple outputs sending to same destination
    No problems found

Controller Checks
        Applying controller rules for kulp 32a:192.168.0.107:My First Show
    No problems found

My question is this. The first IP address at the top is my laptop that I am running Xlights on and the Beaglebone Black with K32 controller IP is different as you see right above. Is configuration correct or should both my controller and output data IP be the same? I don't know how that can be as I would think that would cause a conflict on my network and one or both devices may not work.

That address is always the address of the computer you are running check sequence on and since xschedule comes with xlights on Windows there is an assumption that you will be using xschedule.   JUST IGNORE IT.
