Subject: [LCtalk] irrational behavior and DMX IN

Hi,

hope everybody is well,
working on a ballet piece right now with lots of pulsing lights and stroboscopes.

Here is my problem and I its a problem I had before, the lanbox seems to remember whatever seetings/cues I did prior to last and even though I have only one cuelist editor open and nothing running in any layer, whenever I hit an empty cue the program/box recreates my prior to last step and refuses to let go.
With the strobes, Martin Atomic 3000's its particularly annoying. No idea what that is, really no idea. Like also the strobe cuelist comes to an end, strobe off, then readies (by default) the next existing cuelist in the layer and switches them on again - even in the new cuelist is no strobe command. Seems to have to do with layers, but even happens when they are empty and the only way to get rid of the problem is to leave LCedit and start again. Anything I am doing wrong, other than that it seems to be a memory bug.
any help appreciated.

my second questions is about DMX in, I want to hook a DMX board into the LANbox so that I can use their faders and for developmental and live reasons, so I mapped the incoming DMX channels 1-512 to internal channels 1-512, assuming that this means whatever comes in on the DMX input will go to the linked channels inside my stage window and from there back out according to my patch list to the dimmers. Nevertheless it doesn't work, respectively only with incoming and outgoing DMX channel 100? Is there more documentation on the incoming DMX part, what I found in the manual and tutorial was helpful but not extensive.

thanks

Kurt
