Flash Shot DMX - ETC Ion Console

I've been looking everywhere for answers, and I hope someone here has seen or knows someone who has seen a similar setup.

I'm new to DMX, and we just purchased a Flash Shot DMX to go with our school's lighting system. We have an ETC Ion Console with Sensor+ and Unison dimmer racks - 120 dimmers total. We have a DMX-A and DMX-B port. The DMX-B ports run to the stage and catwalk to allow us to add intelligent fixtures.

Has anyone used the Flash Shot DMX (or any other DMX-controlled fixture) with a similar setup?? I've been working on this for a week solid and can't get anywhere.

DIP switches are active for 1-9 to program the DMX address; switch 10 determines the "non-DMX" mode, right?? I've tried programming switches to channel 1; ION to channel 513 (which should be DMX-B channel 1), I've tried programming to channel 200 - nothing.

Can anyone help?? We're closing in on the show this weekend, and I'd hoped to use the Flash Shot for lightning effects and a fight scene.

Thanks for any help you can offer!!
