I’m a middle school Theatre teacher with a play contest on Saturday. We’re using MyDMX, 3 Slim Par 55, and 2 Wash FX.
My 13 year old light operator shut down the myDMX other night before powering down the power strips into which our two Wash FX 2’s were plugged. I think that may have “confused” one of the Wash FX 2 units. Now it powers on immediately to a green strobe, and we can’t control it at all through our myDMX program.
How do I “clear” any settings on the Wash FX 2 and start a new address from scratch again? Do I try readdressing in a different mode and then readdressing, or is there a better or more thorough way.
I tried patching a new show, but it didn’t work.
Do you have any other suggestions?
We have a seven minute setup at contest, and if the light comes on during setup, that time gets added to our performance time and we could be disqualified. So, if something goes wrong again between tomorrow and Saturday contest, we need to be able to correct it quickly and on the fly.
Can you help?
