Connected lock phantom to visualiser

Recommended Posts

I am currently trying to use phantom and MagicQ vis to preview lighting without access to the kit however I am running into some issues. The problem is that even though the visualiser is running on the same pc and phantom should output Artnet over the loop back the visualiser doesn’t receive this and therefore I am a bit stuck as I need the visualiser to be able to test but can not afford capture etc. How can I get these programs to work without buying the unlock or are there any free alternative visualisers the community can suggest that do work with locked phantom?

You need a unlockdongle to output Artnet from pantom Os to the visualizer. Without the dongle you can't get DMX vaules out of the zerro software. But you can use chamsys software with the magic Viz for one universe for free.

I use: Zero 88 FLX S48 / ETC ColorSource 40 / GLP Creation 4096 / Chamsys MQ70 / Madrix

Phantom ZerOS and Capture talk using CITP. When using a real console (or Phantom with an unlock dongle), this is “normal” CITP. When using Phantom without the unlock dongle, only Capture software can decipher the CITP messages.
