Help with Road Hog and ETC LED

Hi everyone ill just get into it. I am running a Road Hog and recently got new ETC Selador's vividr. The LEDS are plugged into universe 3 by them self's and all addresses are correct on the units, but for some reason nothing happens. We are running the profile for them as X7 because it doesn't have the exact profile, but it said it would run the same. Does anyone know a fix for this.
 
There are several different modes in the Desire fixtures that alter the footprint of the DMX addresses. I'd verify first that you've got power to the fixtures, and that the profile you're using matches the profile set up on your fixtures.

Don't forget depending on your console's defaults, you may need to bring up both intensity and set a color before your instruments will do anything. If you bring up intensity, they may default to the color black and need a color before they'll fire up. If you mix a color without bringing up intensity, you'll also not see light out of the instruments.

What Mike said.

Also, have you tried, on the Road Hog, "DMX Test" (may not be what it's called, can't remember, but it's similar to the Expression's DimmerCheck function) which bypasses all profile and patch and lets you call up DMX addresses directly? Send ALL addresses for a particular light to 255. Something should happen!
