Error Messages

On power-up, Ether-Lynx II goes through a number of self-checks to ensure that it is functioning
correctly. If an internal fault occurs the DMX indicator LEDs are used to display an error code.

Troubleshooting

The fixtures are flashing
randomly when connected to
an output on the Ether-Lynx
II.
When using Ether-Lynx II
the fixture seems to lose
DMX when set to high start
addresses.
Ether-Lynx II powers up but
all the LEDs are flashing
continuously.
I changed my IP address and
have lost all communication
with the Ether-Lynx II.
All the indicators flash three
times when I change the
wheel selectors.
I have connected a
Ether-Lynx II directly to a
computer and there is no
communication.
An output port DMX LED is
flashing continuously.
I have connected 3 or more
Ether-Lynx II units in series
and the data seems to be
delayed from the first to the
last.

Description
SRAM Fault*
E2Prom Fault*
System ROM Fault*
1. The common cause of this is that they are responding
to RDM data being transmitted by the Ether-Lynx II.
If they are DMX512 compliant they should ignore this
data. To overcome this, refer to the 'Jumper - Advanced
Configuration' section and link the jumper to disable
RDM. Alternatively this can be done via the web-
server.
1. Some older equipment cannot handle full rate DMX
refresh rates. This results in it working on lower start
addresses, but seeming 'steppy' on higher start
addresses. To overcome this, use the web-server DMX
settings page to slow down the refresh rate.
1. This means that the unit has gone into boot loader
mode. Uploading the latest firmware will allow the unit
to function normally.
1. If the IP address of a device is changed such that it is
out of the range the PC is on, you must then change
the PC IP address to match. If you still cannot discover
the device, you will need to reset all custom settings to
put it back into the default IP range (2.x.x.x).
1. If the Sub-Net and Universe values have been set
remotely, the front panel wheels are ignored. The LEDs
flash to indicate this.
1. Computer has incorrect IP address (IP address should
be in the range 2.x.x.x).
2. Incorrect network cable (should be a 'cross-over').
3. A firewall is blocking transmitted/received data packets
1. When the port LED is flashing it means that the output
is merging two universes.
1. If several Ether-Lynx II units are connected in series
then the data from the control source has to be re-
transmitted to each one. The more in series, the longer
the delay. To overcome the delay use an ethernet
switch and connect all Ether-Lynx II units and control
sources to it.
