    VL2600 issues

    Sorry you’re facing these problems - have you contacted VL tech support for help? The above quote is absolutely irrelevant to the warranty of your product. That acquisition happened back in 2008, not two years ago - in fact VL stopped being part of Philips several years ago - a few years before...

    Anyone know how to find the IP address of a FLX s24?

    It’s worth noting that, unless both Art-Net and Remote are set to “DHCP”, it’s possible that they have different IP addresses.

    Control/Dimming Advice for choosing a light console

    Vision.Net Designer 4.5

    Glad you’re seeing some progress - I caught up with Maggie earlier and it sounds like she’s trying to find out who originally commissioned your system. If she can’t, she has a couple other options up her sleeve!

    Is it possible to control the new Philips interact house light with our light console?

    Do you have the models of which luminaires / drivers are being installed? Interact Pro is a software control & data gathering platform, rather than the fixtures themselves. What you're currently asking isn't too dissimilar to, "Can my light be controlled by DMX? It's a Chamsys MQ60".
