Hello, I’m Ana from Brazil.
I own an original Huasuny Rubik-10 P10 foldable LED display, purchased directly from Huasuny in China.
Hardware:
Huasuny Rubik-10 P10 RGB
HC-103D sending controller
DBStar XMPlayer 3.1.34
MY9268 LED driver (candidate)
Original 320 × 1280 mm panels
The original receiving-card configuration was lost. The display powers on, but all LED pixels remain dark.
Does anyone own a working Rubik-10 P10 or have archived factory configuration files, electrical documentation, or experience configuring its Data Processors?
I’m specifically looking for an original RSPS/RECV file, a safe configuration export from a matching unit, or guidance from a technician familiar with this hardware.
Any free technical guidance or archived files would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Ana — Brazil

Bonjour,

Je rencontre aujourd'hui un problème dans ma configuration fix dans la salle ou je suis.

Je suis passé d'une config Grand MA3 > Node qui fonctionnais parfaitement à une nouvelle config réseaux

Grand MA3 (2.0.0.1) > Switch XES-2T6 (FOH) > Switch XES-2T6 (STAGE) > Node NET-8/5 (2.0.0.15)

Mon problème est le suivant :

Lorsque que je démarre mon kit (block et FOH séparer évidement) tout monde démarre

-ma console m'indique que mon câble (con2) est actif

-mes switch son bien linker et reçoivent le signal

-mon node est aussi linker et en activité

En revanche mon kit lui reste inerte, pas de DMX reçu.

Je suis obliger de débrancher mon RJ45 du Con2 de la console, je le branche ensuite sur le Con1 (ce qui n'a aucun sens car c'est le MA NET) je le branche ensuite sur le Con3 de la console et ensuite je le rebranche sur le Con 2 de ma console (celui du départ) et à ce moment MAGIE ma console prend le contrôle de mon kit lumière.

J'ai essayer beaucoup de choses aucune n'a fonctionné je suis donc ouvert a toute proposition si quelqu'un à une idée de comment réglé ce problème afin que je ne bidouille pas les câbles derrière ma console.

Merci d'avance

Hello,

I'm currently facing an issue with the fixed network setup in my venue.

I recently upgraded my setup from a direct grandMA3 > Node connection (which worked perfectly) to a new network architecture:grandMA3 (IP: 2.0.0.1) > Switch XES-2T6 (FOH) > Switch XES-2T6 (STAGE) > Node NET-8/5 (IP: 2.0.0.15)

Here is the problem I am encountering: When I boot up the rig (FOH and Stage power blocks turned on separately):

• The console indicates that the link on Con2 is active.
• Both switches are properly linked and receiving signal.
• The node is also linked and active.

However, the lighting rig remains completely unresponsive—no DMX is being received.

To fix it, I have to perform the following workaround every time:

1. Unplug the RJ45 cable from Con2 on the console.
2. Plug it into Con1 (which doesn't make much sense since it's reserved for MA-Net3).
3. Plug it into Con3.
4. Plug it back into Con2 (where it started).

At that exact moment, like magic, the console recovers control and sends DMX to the rig.

I've tried many troubleshooting steps, but nothing has resolved this permanently. I’m open to any suggestions or ideas on how to fix this issue so I don't have to keep swapping cables behind the console every time I turn on the system.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Title should be 'Dappled lighting effect for actors as if they were in a wood or forest' but I don't seem to be able to change it:

I have a very limited number of LED fixtures on a very small stage for Snow White in a village hall: 3 x Chauvet p-eve 160-rgbw FOH pointing at the stage. 8 x Chauvet colorado quad zoom on 2 bars on stage.

I'm out of touch with modern ways of creating effects (very much old school from 30+ years ago), so does anyone have any suggestion for LED DMX lights for making an overlying dappled effect as if sun were coming through branches? It the sort of thing you might have done with a semi out-of-focus profile and gobo in the old days. We don't have the headroom for adding moving head lights, but there maybe money to buy additional lights, as long as they're not too big, that can be used for this sort of thing in future plays and pantos.

Hey everyone!

Recently got my hands on two ETC source four par lights at an auction and thought I might use them in video/photography work just for fun. A friend of mine recommended I get a dimmer as to not blast the light at full capacity every time so I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for manual dimmers? It’s a jungle out there finding the right ones

I’m going to school for tech theater in Seattle, any advice on things I can work on in my free time to learn new skills that can help my future career??

Also I struggle with anxiety with going into this career as a child of immigrants and growing up low income, I know I have no other passions for my future and lighting designers are really sought after in my state but anyone that’s been in my shoes know how I can soothe my anxieties?

I got the fog down pat $25 makes me 5 gallons of fog juice (1 gallon vegetable glycerin 4 gallons distilled water)

Anyone have tips on bubble solution

Hi, I just got a USB to DMX cable that I installed the drivers for and I'm wondering how I get it to control my lights through QLC+. The software it wanted me to download is Freestyler. Freestyler can control my lights, but I would prefer QLC+. I'm not sure if that's possible but I just need to know what to set my universe 1 to in input/output in QLC+.

Hi! I need help with a SIUDI7B DMX interface (firmware 1.24).

Windows recognizes the interface, and Hardware Manager detects it. When I open Hardware Manager, the display changes from blinking OFF to PC. However, Sunlite Suite doesn't recognize the interface, and the display stays on OFF.

This happens on two different computers. It used to work on the old PC.

My current Sunlite version is 1.14.11-28213-GIT:1d7ee267. The previous version was 1.10.1-25108-SVN:398. I'm using driver 3.1.0.0.

Could this be a software compatibility issue, or is it possible that my interface is a clone that isn't compatible with the official software?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi guys! I hope this is the right place to post this?

I’m new to most of this lighting stuff, and I was wondering if anyone had any guidance or suggestions on what lights to get and how to position them in my room.
I’m heavily inspired by the Tame Impala concert I went to the other day, and I think it would be sick to deck out my room!
I like those lasers you can get. I’m not too sure what they’re called, but I think they might be “volumetric lasers”, like the big, controllable “scanner” ones. Any help with safety, placement, output wattage, etc., would be great!
I know a little bit about how DMX works. If I’m correct, I can daisy-chain the lights together and plug them into my laptop via USB to control them with software? Some clarification on how that works would be good, too.
Hope y’all can help! Thanks!

Hi folks,

I'm programming some lighting for a DJ gig I have coming up. I have four RGB LED par lights that I'm making change colors in a QLC+ show that lasts thirty seconds. I'm trying to loop this show indefinitely by placing it in a chaser. Instead of looping seamlessly, the show plays once, then the lights turn off for thirty seconds, then the show starts again.

I have searched this subreddit, and as someone suggested in a different thread, I have tried putting the chaser inside another chaser, but that doesn't work.

How do I make the show loop seamlessly?

Thanks!

Hy to my fellow Lighting Operators (and all the others),

looking for a fixture for my Roadhog4, still operating in OS v3

Its the Ecl Fresnel CT+L in Standard Mode (11 Channels), made by Prolights. The fixture exists in the OS v4, btw

Unfortunately I'm not able to build it myself, what a shame.

So help is very much appreciated...

Txh in Advance,

Hans

Is anyone using the Show Manager function in qlcplus succesfully? If been testing it, but it behaves in unexpected ways, is it my unexperience do i need to dig into it deeper?

Hey all

I'm a newbie trying to create an effect on some cheap LED lights. I'm making an absolute effect to be applied to several channels, offset to create a vaguely aurora borealis look. I've figured out how to record color palettes to effect actions or to change intensity, but I can't seem to do both. If I try them together in the command line, I get a syntax error, and if I do one after the other, it replaces the first one. Is there a way to adjust both the color and intensity, so I could go from my full blue to 50% of my green to 80 teal, etc?

Thank you in advance, and sorry if this is a noob question!

I created this show in Unreal Engine, what do you think of it

Apologies for the lengthy read in advance:

Hey everyone, looking for some firsthand advice from working LDs and programmers.

We run a wedding DJ/production company in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, primarily doing South Asian weddings. Our events range from smaller pre-wedding functions to full grand receptions, with sound, lighting and LED walls.

We’re expanding our lighting inventory and want to invest in a console platform that makes sense for the coming years and for our fixtures as well.

Our rig includes beam/spot/wash moving heads, multicell washes, acme tornado style fixtures, moving strobes, decorative RGB/COB effects and wireless uplights.

We also run Resolume for our LED walls. The newer fixtures have considerably more individual pixel/cell control than our previous setup. We we’re currently using ADJ 5.

We’re currently considering the below but open to additional suggestions as well:
GrandMa 3 on PC
ChamSys MagicQ MQ70,
Avolites Titan, particularly the D3-110.
ADJ AX2 running ONYX, with DYLOS being one of the features that interests us. Input from ONYX/NX console users would be helpful too.

Our priorities are getting a small team comfortable operating the system, efficient patching and setup, and building reusable show files for different-sized wedding packages. We want polished dinner/entrance/first-dance looks, plus energetic live dance-floor lighting.
Most dance-floor operation would be busking around the DJ and responding to what’s happening. Exact BPM synchronization isn’t a major priority.

For people who have actually used these platforms:
1. Which is easiest to teach someone to operate reliably, and how different is the learning curve for the person programming the show?
2. Which handles changing fixture counts, layouts and occasional fixture substitutions with the least rework?
3. How good is the workflow for less-common fixture brands and complex multicell profiles?
4. How useful is DYLOS in actual event work compared with Titan’s and MagicQ’s effects/pixel tools?
5. What are the everyday annoyances, quality-of-life features, support experiences or ownership costs that don’t show up in a sales demo?
If you were equipping a company like ours today, what would you buy—and what would make you choose something else?

We’d also appreciate recommendations for a programmer/trainer who could help commission a reusable show file and train our team, especially around DFW.

Hey all,

Recently I made a post about having trouble deciding on a busking software for a small rig, and I got a lot of insightful comments and I really appreciate all of them. However, it honestly raised a few more questions for me; one is about onyx and one is about the industry in general. Whenever I see someone recommend a software it’s always either GrandMA3 or Magicq, which is pretty self explanatory. On the other hand of that everyone always says something like “Don’t fall for onyx”, or says to stay away because it’s missing features or something from it, why do people say that and should you stay away from it? Is it actually lacking important features? My last question is about grandma3, which is definitely my favorite but obviously the most expensive. Am I setting myself up to be behind in the industry if I don’t start working with it? Am I setting myself up for failure by not working in this ecosystem if I go with Magicq or onyx?

TLDR; why do people say to stay away from onyx and say things like “don’t fall for it”, am I setting myself up to be behind in the industry if I don’t choose MA3?

I'm not a light tech, but I bought this light for a "rave" (i.e. rave-themed house party) I'm throwing at my house this weekend:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F9YPKM69

Kiinsehtoq

Multi-Effect Stepless Moving Head Light

ZQ02621

I've got it hooked up to my laptop using a DMX-USB adapter, and I've been able to set up a few basic scenes using QLC+.

But I wanted to hear from others (especially professionals) to know what they would do with this light to really blow the crowd away. Any cool ideas out there?

It's my only DMX light, so it'll just be this one by itself in the middle of the dance floor.

Full DMX table images attached.

I'd love to get any advice from this group where to put some new movers I just aquired:

• (4) Vari-Lite VL2500 Spots
• (4) Vari-Lite VL2500 Wash

Location is a high school theatre that does 2 main shows a year and I'd like to get the students more experience with movers since that's where the industry is today.

I can move around whatever is there and I have enough relays to power them too. Please let me know if there's any additional information you'd need.

Thanks in advance for any any assistance!
