As long as you are installing the file downloaded from the claudeheintzdesign.com website, it is safe to install the software on windows. The current installer is codesigned so it cannot be tampered with. If you do not have a codesigned version, do not bypass your anit-virus software to install. You...

This question should be posted to either the LXSeries Mac Support or LXSeries Java support discussions. The specific answer to your question depends on which version of the software you are asling about.

Its not clear from your message what your goal is, but yes, you can use a text editor to create a .lxmidi file and import that into your MIDI setup. You can create an action or two in the setup window and then export using the popup next to the +/- buttons in the Setup/MIDI tab. That will allow you ...

Can you e-mail the file? It will make finding the source of the issue a lot easier.

The error means that there is an extra ">" or "<" in the file. But how that differs from previous versions doesn't make sense.

The link to the source for the USITT ASCII applet got left off when the website was revised. But, applets aren't really useful anymore. I have converted the former applet (which would have needed to run in a browser) into a standalone Java Swing application. There are links to the source code and to...

Auto-CAD uses its own system for text, not the font/text system of the operating system. The text displayed when a DXF is exported from LXBeams and is opened in Auto-CAD tends to appear a little larger. Perhaps someone who uses Vectorworks will be able to answer the question better based on how it i...

It does not really matter what subchannel you use for these functions because they are not really standardized in the way more common ones are. They don't mean the same thing across fixtures anyway. So use them in a way that makes sense to you. I might suggest "Control" for the dimming cur...

There is built-in support for controlling faders from both a Korg nanoKONTROL and a Bheringer X-Touch compact. The latter is more expensive but has motorized faders which makes synching faders much easier. So much so that it is more than worth the price difference in quality of use over the long run...

There are two types of positions, the basic pipe type position that is drawn with the position tool and a position that is created out of a path. When you convert a curved line to a position, it becomes this second type. You edit it like you would a plain path object. To adjust the control points ch...

In the current version of the software, to make this happen you'd need to manually list the accessories in one of the light's info fields. The most likely candidate would be the note field. You can then add a note column to the Instrument Schedule to get the result you seek. It would be possible (in...

This should be fixed in the latest build 5.6.0 (14419.1).

LXConsole must be in manual mode prior to the start of a cue. Once the cue is running, it is not possible to switch to manual control.

All you are doing by sending the string via OSC is to set the text of the label in touchOSC.

If you want to use AppleScript to have LXConsole do a command as if it were entered on the command line, you wouldn't use OSC at all.

It appears that all the subs are inhibitive. And, those channels are marked at zero in all the subs. Meaning that they will never come on. If you need to control them with an inhibitive sub, they should be at full in the sub. If a sub does not want to control a channel, it should be unmarked. You ca...

There are now LXTeensy4DMX objects for all 7 of the UARTs. There is now a summary at the end of the LXTeensy4DMX.h file of the hardware configuration for each one. This information is taken from the Teensy4 hardware definitions for HardwareSerial1 through HardwareSerial7. Its pretty straightforward ...
