GigBAR IRC Not Responding To DMXIS

Post by JamesVanAllen »

I have had the DMXIS, and DMXIS software for 4 hours now. 3 1/2 of those hours have been spent trying to get my Chauvet Gigbar IRC to respond to anything.

I've done a factory reset on the tree, tried 5 different fixture libraries from the community, read the Gigbar IRC manual, tried every different channel setting on the hardware I could think of (3-9-20 channel, master, slave, color anything!) scoured YouTube/Google etc.

It is illuding me...
I don't have a standalone light to try it out on, so I don't know if it is my light bar, hardware set up, or software settings.

Any advice would be great!!! I have zero experience with this and am not the most computer literate... it took me 15 minutes to figure out how to make this post... okay 25 minutes.... 😬

`Thanks

A few things to check are:

1. Do you have the DMXIS box connected to a USB port of the computer and does the software say it's connected?
2. Is the cable from the DMXIS box to the GigBAR DMX in good?
3. What DMX channel is the GigBAR set to?
