Strange behavior on my D4

[Tompa]

Are these common problems for anyone else but me?

1. Desk qrokes during programing at least one time during programing.
Works fine after a "Hard reset" panel or dmx reset doesnt connect...

2. After moving a group or other pallet from lets say page 1 handle 1 to another place the desk wont let me plac another pallet on that handle....or..sometimes it does, but do not show the legend. Sometimes after deleting that empty space about 10-20 times you can store a new shape in purpose of moving the new pallet and then finaly move the pallet you wanted from the start....really enoying.

3. SEL IF.... Am I way out of line if I wants the SEL IF to show me, for example: what fixtures are red. I pressed SEL IF the the pallet for red (Used in programing look) still theres no information what so ever?!?!?!?!

4. How do I set a default time on every que in a quelist after setting the looks without doing the same button-pressing for each and every que? Cant figure it out. Really happy the quelist functions finally's there as an option. Only used quelists on Hog and Avab before and might fole m self trying to program totaly backwords?


5. How do I step back a que in the list? without snap!!! but with que X-fade time as programed.


I hope my english wasnt that bad and you understod my questions.

Thanx, Thomas

Tompa,

I've had a couple of these similar problems with D4 Vision. Nic or Olie may have some better answers for you though.

1. I've had the panel randomly lock up on me during cuelist programming. You can't reset it with the panel reset and just have to power down the console completely to fix the lock up, right? It's hard to recreate the problem for me, but Avo has told me that they think that this may be the USB issue. Are you running version 2.4?? They've told me to open up the console while powered down and make sure all the USB ports are seated well. If you haven't done so already, you might want to decrease your autosave time to no more than 10 minutes, so that you don't lose too much programming if the console mysteriously crashes.


2. No experience with this one.


3. Your understanding of the Sel if function is correct. Nic or olie, is this in the current software or will it be released with titan?? Haven't used this function myself, sorry.


4.


5. Connect your cuelist to one of the chase/cuelist control encoder wheels by pressing connect under that wheel and pressing the swop button for the cuelist that you'd like to connect to it. press the go to button (above the red GO button), enter the cue number that you'd like to go to, and press enter, then press the red GO button. Your cue should fire with the delay and fade times previously programmed.

I'm sure the guys with avo can help with what I couldn't answer. I may be wrong on a couple of these answers, as I'm not sitting at my console right now. Hope this helps.
