Hi Lighting Pros!
Ordered a set of Chauvet Freedom Flex H9 IP battery-powered, wireless uplights for some traveling scenery in our high school show opening isix days from now, and a couple of days before tech, word came that they were being held for "quality control." We rallied as best we could and ordered some Rockville "RockWedge" LED RGBWA+UV rechargeable wireless uplights from you-know-where, with a set of Donner wireless DMX 2.4G receivers (and transmitter) to match. They arrived today and actually put out some nice punchy light, but we're having trouble with the DMX aspect.
Our LD is a college student who does pretty well with our Ion, but she's never dealt with wireless DMX and is having trouble figuring out how to add the Rockvilles to our rig for the show. I'm not sure whether this product is already in the ETC library, or what a workable substitute profile would be. I've been looking in forums (fori?) and on YouTube to see if there are tutorials or pertinent advice out there, but no luck so far. Any thoughts on next steps for finding out how to add wireless DMX to an Ion? I know the REAL answer is, "spend the money you need to spend on proper equipment and proper help," but that's not going to help with this show, besides which we are working on this with our school administration and making incremental progress, so I'm hopeful I'll be doing less consulting with good samaritans online to help solve our challenges.
Thank you.
