Ma3 in vision


Recommended Posts

Encountered a possible issue today and couldn’t work out where I was going wrong. 
 

exported lighting rig to vision and all appeared fine. 
 

went to connect a ma3 light (running in ma2 mode) 

running from console to pc via a 4 port switch. Chose the DMX as ma3net as per a video I had found and downloaded the ma2 vision patch from the ma website just in case. 
it then came up saying something was out of date. And needed to use updater (had downloaded the latest vision prior to all this) vision then crashed every time I tried to do this. Can anyone explain where I could be going wrong. Or is the issue that I have a show running on 3 but in 2 mode. 
 

any help appreciated

If you are running the MA3 in MA2 mode as far as the software is concerned you are running a MA2.
If you have an MA3 Light I would configure the console and Vision to use ArtNet or sACN.

Using MA3-net requires the use of a MA supplied Viz-Key and using MA2-Net requires Windows and a Vision dongle.
