PAR64 LED AND LIGHT JOCKEY

Former Member

Has anyone tried controlling the ADJ Par64 LED's with ****** Light Jockey? I am having trouble both with the Master Intensity control and the Grand Master Intensity control.
The Grand Master fader does not work at all on the Par64 LED's. The Master intensity control causes erratic behavior. The individual color intensity controls work fine on their own but when I try to dim using the Master, some fixtures dim, others go out completely and the grand master fader has no effect on them at all even though the grand master box is checked on the profile.
Any help or work around would be greatly appreciated.

I dotn have much experience whith LightJockey but I knwo the some going ou and others dimming thing usually happens when all your fixtures are at differnt levels. The first step would be to check to make sure your fixtures are all at 100% and then try dimming from there. I believe there us a default setting when you are writing cues and such to have the fixtures automatically at full or whatever value you assign. What you also might try to do is instead of dimming them. Take al of them to 0 and actually brighten up to lets say 50...go up rather than down.

Might seem too simple, but are you using a DMX terminator at the far end of your data line? If you're running a hundred feet or so of control cable, you probably need a terminator. They're really easy to make and darn cheap too.

Also, if you're using mic cables for DMX data lines, you really should make sure all the XLR grounds are cut from the shield to the XLR plug barrel & frame. Using grounded to shield XLR cables for DMX will cause a data ground loop and make everything work very unreliably.
