ECG-Dx or ECG-DRx Keep Alive Settings

[JPB]

Don't ask me why this works for me but if I have the keep alive turned off and the start zeros turned on I get an output that stops the test pattern and keeps the port awake.

mine doesn't work that way, but I'm using some chinese RGB controllers... $6 versions. the V1's don't ever stop colorwashing no matter if I have keep alive on.. the V2's will stop at their color until the orange LED keep alive goes off. I haven't tried linking the multi-controllers through the Lynx Express yet.

Think I'll do a little more testing with the multi-controller items, see if the Lynx Express helps the V1 controllers any.

What RGB controllers are you using that colorfade on loss of signal?

I am using the DD-100 controllers from Ray

If I look at the D2 while there is no sequence playing I can see the orange LEDs on the output sockets pulsing roughly every 1/2 second.

do the orange LEDs stay on for more than 10 to 15 mins with no sequence running--mine won't.

If I have keep alive turned off they do but if keep alive is on they don't. I know this back to front but that is how it is
