Hey everyone, I recently bought the Kessil Controller X for my A80 light. It is all plugged in and I have been messing with it for a while. My problem is that the controller doesn't recognize the lamp but it still makes it change color and intensity when I mess with the settings. I have created a schedule and it flows through it but when I let it sit, it'll change back to whatever the knobs are set to. It is also not in demo mode either. What am I missing? Thanks!

The A80 won't be recognised by the controller, you need an 'X' light connected to the K-Link port for that to happen. You control the A80 under the legacy '0-10v' section of the controller settings.

I ran 6 360x's and one 160 via the 0-10v from one controller x without issue. You have to assign the program to the right port. You need to select the program in the 0-10v from the dashboard. Watch this video and go to 18:00 to start the 0-10v sections.
