Topic: Avenue PC control

Hi this is my first post...
I do have a subject which I'm sure members will be able to advise me on.
We have a number of distributed Avenue frames in our facility. They have various IP addresses all in the same subnet.
Some of the frames also have members connected via Avnet.
I'm sure in the past I was able to see all the frames (and their Avnet members) via the Avenue PC software even though they had different IPs .
Now it seems like I can only see one frame group at a time once I have entered the IP address in the Avenue PC communications menu.
I can see the Avnet members in the frame and if I enter another frames IP I can then see that frame and its members just not every frame with a different IP simultaneously.
I am using ver 2.0.11 of the software and most of the control cards are using ver 2.2.8
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Re: Avenue PC control

Hello Tim,

Make sure that each of the frames that have the IP connection have AVIP turned On.
Also make sure that each frame has an individual address.  If you still have problems
email me directly: mike@ensembledesigns.com

Re: Avenue PC control

Hi thanks Mike. All these were ok. I found that a person unknown had set the Upper Avnet address in the first frame to include all the avnet numbers in the other frames. Once I set this back to the correct value all the other frames appeared and now all ok.
