Problem with Vixen talking to Renard ss24

**BigKahuna** · 12-10-2011, 12:01 PM

I'm using Vixen 2.1.4.0, I downloaded the Renard output plugin from the Vixen website. I also downloaded Simple Renard Tester by Macebobo.

The Simple Renard Tester works great, all lights work as they should on 2 ss24 boards that are daisy chained.

When I take the Simple Renard Tester settings and plug them into Vixen, I get no lights. I have tried the "Test channels" in Vixen and still have nothing.

I have a D-light board and it works using Vixen, but I pulled it out of Vixen to see if that was causing any problems. Still nothing.

Any help would be appreciated,

have a Merry Christmas

Make sure that you have Channel Defined on the Renard Plugin (First Screen, set Channels 1 to 48). Also, make sure the Renard Plugin is actually enabled. I know that as you are working on chaning settings, its easy to uncheck the plugin, disabling it.

Yes, I double checked that.Vixen screen shot.png

It should be NO Parity.

I changed it to "none" and still nothing. Here are the settings in "Simple Renard Tester" that work.Simple Renard Test screen shot.png

Stop the presses, I got lights

The "No" parity was the problem. I had to get a closer look at the lights, sun shine and all.

I'm off and running, thanks for your help.

Merry Christmas
