Hello,
I've just received my LanBox-LCM and am trying to get it going. I'm running XP on a Celeron laptop, connected to the lanbox via a Keyspan USB to serial interface. My problems:

1. Multiple out-of-sync errors. I've experimented with all baud rates, and while the 9600 level has the least errors, they still occur. From the archives I get the impression that this should not be a problem when using the Keyspan. What can I try?

The most common problems on Windows are: 1. Other programs silently testing/using this port, e.g. FAX, Palm desktop, PPP. 2. Bug in drivers which prevents the use of high speed data transfers via serial ports. 3. Old Keyspan drivers, check with their site. 4. Wrong USB adapter.

If you can't find the problem, please send an email to support at CDS dot nl.

2. I'm trying to connect to an Optima Mojoscan III, a 4 channel scanner. I created a fixture definition for it, but the wrong parameters are being affected by the wrong controls, and the gobo wheel and the mirror shake badly.


Did you try with 4 separate "Generic single DMX channel"?

If with above the fixture is still behaving weird, please check that your fixture is really DMX-512 USITT 1990 compatible. See also: <http://www.lanbox.com/support/dmx-timing-v203.html>
