Cant get MQTT to work :( #11

Hi

Not sure if this is still being monitored....

I have installed the program on Windows and its working with my ArtNet gateway in that I can control the light manually with the faders.

I have created a couple of scenes and can manually trigger them.

What I cant do is trigger them via MQTT from Nore-RED

When i start the MQTT DMX Controller software, my MQTT Explorer showed up a new topic:

dmx connected = 0

So i guess its connecting to my broker OK.

I'm assuming that that scene names are the payload, so using node red i inject a string msg.payload of screne-a to the topic dmx/set/scene, where scene-a is the name of the scene in MQTT DMX Controller,

MQTT Explorer shows this when i publish the message:

But nothing happens with the light, or in the MQTT DMX Controller software.

What am i missing?

Thanks,

Joel.
