Second universe with BOX (no longer available)

Postby MortaR » 22 December 2017, 19:07

Hi there, I am running a Sweetlight BOX since 14 years and now I have used all 512 DMX-channels and need another 512 channels. Do I need an extra hardware for second universe and how to manage both universes in live-mode? Regards from Germany, Markus

Yes you have to get a second usb interface with 512 dmx channels (D512, Remote or Rack).
The software is able to drive them together with your interface.

Thanks a lot. Is it comfortable to use both universes with one screen? Or is it time-consuming to switch between universes?

Many users have one screen and more than one interface.
So far, this is ok for them.

Thank you very much for the information. So I will buy a "D512" and use it together with "BOX".

Hi again, now I bought a new PC, installed Sweetlightand connected both, the BOX and the D512. Both hardware are found in system-manager, USB-drivers are installed like BOX: "BOX Interface 64bits (2018_04_28)" and D512: "D512 Interface 64bits (2018_04_28)", but only 1 universe is found, the D512.

Any idea for troubleshooting?

V9.1.00 needs to update the file "efk_hardware.dll".
The updated file is available here: https://thelightingcontroller.com/viewt ... =18&t=5804
