When you setup new facility with new multilight controller, you may face with the next error message:

Hardware Initialization Failed
Hardware loader: Dynamic exception type: class std::runtime_error std::exception::what: Legacy boards initialization failed

One of possible reasons is the name of multilight controller is MLCD, but DALS now works only with controllers with name MLSC_MBOX20.

To change its name:

  1. Download and Run MLSC_TestGui.exe
  2. Change text in the "Device ID" to M:
  3. Press on the "Search My Device" button:
  4. Press on "Get Net Settings" button:
  5. Change text in the "Device Name" to MLSC_MBOX20:
  6. Press on the "Set Net Settings" button:
  7. Close this program and run DALS to check connection with the hardware.
