Hello,
I have a new Chauvet Obey 40 and Followspot 75ST and am having issues using DMX with the lamp. I have followed directions explicitly, address is correct, etc, and am using a Accucable DMX cable, but the light isn't responding to the controller. No light using the first slider. I do see the colors switching in the spotlight using the second slider so there is a connection and some control. I have tried everything, including polarity switching and the lamp will not respond. The light works perfectly in manual mode.
I'm hoping there is something obvious that I am missing here. And of course, we have a production in a few days and I didn't budget so many hours on such a simple rig, one spot and the controller.
Thanks for your help.
