Hi all,

I have a Profilux Plus II (firmware 5.08, ProfiluxControl 5.0.8.1) with two t5 light bars connected to L1/L2, a Simu-L led-stick connected to L3/L4, and a second Simu-L connected to L5/L6 which is on a PLM-4L expansion card.

The problem is that the stick on L5/L6 will not flash during a thunderstorm. It works as expected otherwise (switching on/off/dimming)

If I switch the sticks, the problem stays with L5/L6. So the sticks are OK, I think. Both sticks are programmed to "react to all flashes". (I know they have to be connected to L1/L2 or L3/L4 to be programmed) Using L7/L8 (second connection on the PLM-4L expansion card) makes no difference.

There's a third stick coming my way destined for L7/L8, and I'm hoping all three will be able to flash simultaneously... Any help is much appreciated!

Flashing is only possible at internal L-ports, not with PLM-Addon cards
Connect your T5 bars to L5/6 and the Simu-L to L1/2 and it will work

Ah ok. And then I'll have to add the third stick with a splitter I guess.

Thanks for the superquick reply!

Yep that works, both sticks are now flashing. If only my fish were as impressed as i am.
