Good Afternoon

Am new to QLC+, I am have a Raspberry Pi 4 (2GB) Version, to run DMX lighting for a small community theatre group,
we only have 12 lights (8 LEDJ QColour, 2 LED Par Cans, 1 Generic Dimmer 1 DMX Followspot and ordering a AFK-100 Beam Moving Light)

set light colours and scenes, and will be used with a 13.3" HDMI/USB Touch Screen with the VESA mount on the back.

Connection will be initially the Enttec Open USB with a DMX Wireless Transciever.

We can not get Network or Internet Access in the church so would have direct work with HDMI monitor to the Pi.

Thank you

Welcome to the forum Craig,

And your question is?
Hint -> do your first runs with DMX cable connection. After getting it to work switch to wireless. This will save you possible endless frustration.

I think you have a problem with users & rights... What if you start QLC+ with sudo?
