Newbie Test isn't working at all
« on: February 22, 2015, 05:28:15 AM »
Hello,
I'm new to the xLights and E682 I've connected my first E682 and from the webpage 169.xxx.xxx.xxx I can run the test modus fine, but once I go to xlights and setup my configuration and than go the test tab there is no output to the led's.
Any help will be appreciate.
Greetings from Belgium
Jo

Are you checking the output to lights box?  It isn't checked in your pictures.

hello,
thnx for your reaction, but yes the output box was checked, I've changed the setup from multicast to unicast and entered the ip address and now it is working, but I wonder what I have to do when I'm going to add my second controller. and later I want to incorporate it to my LOR system
Regards
Jo

When you add your 2nd controller, you just add those universes and channels to the setup screen just as you've done, but use the ip address of the second controller if you'll be running that controller in unicast.  The important thing is to be sure both the controller and xlights setup agree (unicast or multicast) for any given controller. For LOR, use 'add  usb' in the xLights setup page. That's where you enter your dongle info.
