Right i just give batten 5 the DMX addresses of batten 7. This removed the addresses from batton 7 but batton 5 does not work. Strangly when selecting all battens and blue. I now get 1 red on batten 5!!!!! Or have i done this wrong?

Is it ok to have two with the same address? Or do i need to remove the other one first.

Here is the settings for the group we setup which controls row one of all Battens. As you can see the addresses are correct However when selecting this and picking colour red @10 percent we get this error on batten 5. It's almost like for some reason its picking the colour below from the palette. Select red its green. Select yellow its blue etc. Strangely though white is fine! Any suggestions on what i can do to fix this. I am wondering now if the light is faulty... Thanks again for all your help.

Hi Edward Thank you for this. I can confirm that the Battens do start with the correct addresses. Was hoping that one would be wrong solving my issue! If we upgrade the firmware then will all the fixtures and addresses be lost? Do we have to patch them all again. With the saving of the file i am slightly confused, after reading the link do we need to use the csv file to be able to save all fixtures and DMX settings? Saving the show file just saves the programming for the lights?

Had a look through the baton setup this all looks ok to me. each "bulb" has a fixture (CH#) and the DMX Address is +3 each time Still scratching my head...

Also a quick one. We are taking a USB backup of the desk but does this backup the fixtures? Does not look like it. Seems to only backup the programming. I also noticed yesterday that this was all setup without using RDM. I am wondering what would happen if i deleted the baton then run the rigsync? Would this screw up everything? If i could take a back of the fixtures i would do it now but we are not sure the USB save is backing up the lights and everything.

Thank you both for the information to get me started. I will have a look through the fixtures and settings and get back to you. Noticed that our batons have been setup using Generic LED 3 Channel RGB. It's always been like this and worked fine so not sure about that. What I find confusing is there are 12 "bulbs" on the baton so each one is its own separate 3Ch fixture.. Very confusing. I will look and post some more information, I assume tho it could just be an issue with the light showing Red?

Appreciate it thank you. Just watching a few videos.

Is there an idiots guide on where to find the addresses and patch information?

"Don't forget you can display and examine the desks DMX output to see if it is sending the same thing to all the fixtures but make sure you know what addresses the fixtures are actually set to. Don't rely on the patch or a paper record." How do i do this? Sorry a complete newbie here.

Thank you for the quick reply. I am a complete newbie with this kit so where would i find the address on which patch? No one has changed anything as far as we are aware. They would not be able to change modes etc.

Hello We are using a Zero88 and have come across a strange issue. I will try my best to explain but i am fairly new to using this hardware. We are running multiple lights, we have 6 LED batons and trying to control the colours this worked perfectly before, we could select all batons and then select a colour. However when we do this now baton number 3 turns a separate colour to the rest. We have restored the desk from an old backup that was fine incase someone had messed with the programming, this did not fix the issue. When we select the baton individually and then select red we get green, It seems like the touch screen is using the button below where we press to select the colour but only on this one light. If you press above the colour on the row above then you get the colour below for some strange reason. But only on that one light What could be the issue, where can i start? Any help appreciated. Please let me know if you need anymore information.
