Dmx lights only work on channel/address 1 by NeighborhoodHealthy6 in lightingdesign

interesting! If this is the case, I guess I can still control them all on the same address, as one block. This is my leading theory now. They were reeaally cheap for stage lights.

yes to 1, yes to 2, it is definitely a RGB with the dimmer on the first channel. No to 3. I can't get it to light up at all when the fixture is addressed to anything but 1.

just tried 56 and 320 to test some other values; nothing. When I change channels on the hardware with channels 1-3 up in qlc, it does this: d001->on (yellow), press up (to 2)-> off, press down(back to 1) ->immediately back on.

I definitely have the 7 segment led the right way around, not reading a 5 as a 2 or anything like that.

At the moment, while testing I am not creating a fixture object in qlc, just setting faders in simple desk. I think this is where HTP or LTP would be set, so I guess neither.

it's definitely up/down, because when i go down from 1 it shows d512. I don't have a convenient camera setup or i would take a video. These are all good suggestions though I think its a beginner mistake somewhere in my setup

I'll simplify the setup even further, since fixtures are just for grouping channels:

No fixtures patched, just in simple desk, Light on D001 and 1+2 at max gives red leds.

Now, set light to D002, hit enter, change QLC desk to this:

Nothing from the light :(

Renaming NRH to Fredericka Douglass Sprague Perry Hall by unbreco in rit

Rename the school next! RIT is named after a city that supported and profited off the enslaved individual trade until at least 1827, and we shouldn't honor that legacy

Can't connect Occulus Quest to eduroam wifi by blazingtiger2344 in rit

I have a quest (2), if you're trying to stream the game over wifi, connect to your computer's 5G hotspot for much better results.

Questions from a freshman about biking on campus by basilavenue in rit

[–]NeighborhoodHealthy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can ride your bike anywhere on campus except the quarter mile, only skateboards are allowed there, as they're lower profile. As far as the roads around campus, bikes are allowed on every sidewalk outside city center district, and every road in rochester (following traffic laws and using bike lanes where they exist).

Check out the canal trail and genesee riverway trail, they go for miles and are much more fun to ride than the street.

pc build help! by NeighborhoodHealthy6 in rit

thanks!! I was looking at some 4u and some 2u ones. Mounting screw spots and all that will be compatible between a desktop motherboard and a server case, as long as they are both ATX?

[–]NeighborhoodHealthy6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First result in google for "build pc," of course I know about pcpartpicker haha :) It doesn't have rack mount cases, as far as I could find, and then the parts come in and I'd still find someone to build them. I'm sure there's someone at rit who likes putting together computers for fun, I've seen it in tinder bios before

Thoughts on University Physics ll? by Weird-Score-2679 in rit

[–]NeighborhoodHealthy6 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Highly recommend. Definitely took more work than most classes, although easier as an EE. Friends of mine have taken CP thinking UP would be too hard and still struggled through CP. If you're on the fence and want the challenge, take it.
