help with WSYWYG

The version of Wysiwyg is Console Edition ONLY. I believe it is a 512 (single universe) channel maximum. The "warning" you receive is just that...a warning. The software should perform as normal except with the 512 limitation.

From the Cast Website:

Console Edition will only run if it sees the Hog 3. A way around it is to run Hog 3pc on the same computer as WYSIWYG.

Hope this helps.

I tried using hog3pc on the same pc and it won't connect for me; but the console / DP does.l

Hi,

So I work at a college with a permanent Hog3 installation. We currently have the console and 1 DP2000. The school also has WYSIWYG Education Edition installed on multiple computers with the dongle connected over the network. My question is: what hardware do I need to connect the console to the computer with WYSIWYG on it? I was thinking I could use a router with the internet connection from the school's network connected to the WAN port and then connect the DP, console, and computer with WYSIWYG on it to the switch ports of the router. I'm not so concerned about connecting everything to the school's network right now as I am just getting the console, DP, and PC all on the same network. Will just a regular 10/100 ethernet switch do the job? I do have a decent background in computers and networking...this is just the first time I've had to apply it to my Hog 3 experience :147:

Thanks!

Yes that will work just fine. Plug the console, DP ,and PC all into the same switch using regular non-crossed/straight cables....do not use any of the ports on the switch labeled "link" if there are any.

Hope this helps:)

Thanks!

So my Wholehog DP window just hangs on "Loading Show Data..." after it finds the console and then eventually I get an application error and WYSIWYG quits on me. Any idea on what might be going on here?

Make sure you have any Firewalls and/or Internet Security programs disabled.

I als find I get the best results by launching the show on the console, then booting up the PC and after the IP is assigned, then lauch WYG and open the WYG file.

Hope this helps:)
