I have mentioned on another post i am having trouble figuring out how to get my computer to communicate with a showdesigner for updates. I am also having some other communications problems. I have a pentabeam that I have never gotton to communicate at all . I figured it may just be an update. But I also have an aviator 8 channel pack but it only works with the "32 ch dimmer" setting which I think is robbing quite a few channels. I just purchased a Megastrobe and I can't seem to get it to work right either. I believe I am at channel 50 for it's starting point but it wont respond. I tried moving it to channel 1 fixture 1 and it responds but the trouble is it won't stop flashing when I pull the sliders all the way down.
It works fine in self tesst modes and shows DMX to be working and it did stop flasing when it wasn't responding but when it does respond it won't quit. Where do I start. I am using a terminator

I have an Aviator 8 and I have it set to 8-channel mode, and I am having no problems in any way shape or form with this unit. I am using it with a DMX Operator. No problems at all.

I am wondering if using your computer, is your MIDI interface working? Test with a keyboard. Ensure your DMX controller is programmed to the correct MIDI channel as well.

Also, maybe you have your wires crossed for DMX. You might need to use the pin 2/3 switch.
