32 Kanal PC_DIMMER Seriell - cannot control

Hello!

First of all, thanks a lot for this awesome piece of software. In the past (~5 years ago?) I played a bit with it and found it useful.
Recently I found my dimmer again ("32" channel PC-Dimmer Serial, but only 1 box so 8 channels) so I tried the latest version of PCDimmer, unfortunately it doesn't really work...

What happens: I select the 128channel pcdimmer plugin, use com1 at 9600 boud.
When I touch fader 1, Light 1 swiches to 100%
When I touch fader 8, light 2 switches to 100%

The lights won't fade and won't go out either.
With the original software everything works as expected.

Am I forgetting to configure something? I also tried adding a pcdimmer to the devices list, but this doesn't change anything.

Thanks a lot in advance for your answer!

ps. Antwort kann auch auf's Deutsch geschrieben werden, das kann ich verstehen :oops: .

Hello,


I will answer in English - most of the people dealing with computers/electronics are able to write/read english, so this should not be a problem :)

The reason why you cannot control the hardware is quite simple: I removed the output plugin, because I've thought that nobody is using this hardware anymore. I will post you the nescessary output-plugin-dll here soon, so you can control the hardware again.

see you,
Chris :)
