Thread: I REALLY am FRUSTRATED with LOR!! HELP?

Tweet

I have to be missing something really simple. I have created the sequence and now what to schedule the sequence. I went into schedule editor and scheduled my times, made sure the sequence works in the sequence editor, then unclicked the control lights and went into the Hardware and made sure that all the comm number is the same. I know this is scattered.....sorry. I went to the lor website for support to create a show and did it set by set and it still won't work. I click the control panel icon and it says that the show is enabled and that there is no show running and the next show is scheduled for 12 am! In the schedule editor it shows the time and days that i have saved....and no it's not 12am. Why won't it play at the scheduled time? HELP!!! PLEASE!!!!!

Ok lets see if I can help
Are your sequences animation or musical ?
Did you use the LOR show editor ?
Go back and make sure you click ON control lights.

try Light-O-Rama Forums I had the same problem and couldnt figure it out.

and are you using s2 software?

What i understand is the control lights in the sequence editor have to be off for the control panel to work the show...is that wrong? Or does the control lights have to be on for the control panel to work? The step by step said that only one of the programs can be running at a time?

So, Calloween....do you use your LOR then? Or did someone else do it for you?

Thank you for your help...i will try lor forum as well!

anjpro....they are musical....I can get them to run in the sequence editor & loop one song to continuously play....but then i have to turn them on & off....I want to play 4 songs under a programmed time....

yes s2 software....i just got all this stuff from wow lights...their 16 channel pkg....

I do use lor

1. Save your sequence
2. Close the sequence editor
3. Open the show editor
4. Put your sequence into the appropriate category (animation, musical)
5. Save the show
6. exit the show editor
7. open the scheduler
8. go to the proper day (today) and right click-add your show, starting it before now and ending it a few hours from now.
9. Save the schedule
10. go to the LOR control panel, right click to bring up the menu, click "enable shows"
11. Your show should now be running. It will *NOT* control lights if you are using the demo version of the software.
12. If you want to edit the sequence, go back to the lor control panel, right click to bring up the menu, click "sequence editor" (it will tell you that it cannot control the lights), make your changes, save them, go back to the control panel, right click to bring up the menu, click on "disable shows", then right click again and "enable shows".

Also run the verifier program. That will let you know if you are having any other issues as well!!!

CraiginPA....that all makes perfect sense...that is what i tried. And it still no worky. I finally gave up last night. Unplugged the whole thing and put it in the corner. Then this morning hooked it back up, started over and WHAM it worked. I don't know, technology, who can figure it out.

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP!
