I would like to set up a d-light controller template (3 ACX16"s)
I can't seem to do this without adding a song in spectrum to bring over to Aurora (is this the way then change to the song you wish to use). Also, Aurora is  only showing  16 channels in the sequence out of 48.


How have others done it???

Things to check 
 
Serial Network Config: Is Aurora configured for Network 1 and the proper COM port for your RS485/WiLink
 
Aurora Channel Properties: Make certain each channel is set for the Network Segment you assigned in the Serial Network Config; and that the proper controller number is assigned.
 
You an change the song in Aurora at any time.
 
Aurora will kill duplicate channel name tags (you can't have two channel named GARAGE, for instance or two controllers with the same Device ID)

I've also found that when I used Virtual Controllers in spectrum, for some reason it created duplicate channels on the same controller.....Among others, I had a Left Window and a Right Window channel in spectrum, when I brought the sequence into Aurora, the Right Window did not get brought in.   I had to go back in spectrum and Sort the controller by channel. (right click feature on the controller), then go channel by channel to make sure they are 1-16 for each controller.
