D-Light HW Utility - you need to register first

1. connect your adapter
2. start the utility
3. select the com port
4. click ON - all channels should come on

This utility can be used to test lights, discover address numbers and set addresses.

Ok, the intensity is on 100%, the waveform was at miderange, so I turned it up, but it didnt change even after I saved it. So how do I go to the untility hardward for d-lite the check the setting there, again a step by step would be great. I did have a problem with 4 channels, but the forum told me that I didnt have enough lights on those channels, wow what a surprise that was. All the channels work perfect, just need the display to be 100% brightness, thanks in advance again, John

I do believe the upgrade to 1.0.32 last season required.....or was recommended that you open the file in 1.0.32 and save it.    I would save them in the upgraded version just to be safe.  Keep a backup copy of your current version sequences some place else.

By default the Intensity event should be 100%.  To adjust it, right-click on the Intensity tool and adjust the slider accordingly. 

100% should be the same as plugging in your lights directly to the wall - confirm that these intensities are different first.  Then confirm that the intensities are set to 100% in your sequence. 

Last, it could be your hardware - use your hardware utility (do you have D-Light or LOR?) and turn the lights on.  If they don't come full on then (compared to a direct line to the wall), I would say you have an issue with your board.

I don't believe that any file formats have changed since 1.0 - meaning that you should be able to go to to 1.0.41.  Wait for someone else to chime in, but I'm pretty sure you'll be ok.

The max burn setting is within D-Light's Harware Utility. I don't have it installed here, but I think it's on the general tab.
Fine. You're so smart you rig up the lights.

I finally have my lights up and going after 2 years of having this program, the problem that I am having is that the lights are not as bright as they should be. How do I turn up the intensity on the lights? A  step by step would be great, if possible. Also, if I upgrade to the 1.04[ I am running 1.0 right now], will I lose my sequences that I have created already? Many thanks in advance, John.
