Turntable Node Shows "Not Required" - Axis Assignment / File Setup¶

Summary¶

A turntable worked on one PC but errored on another using the same INI. The extracted diagnosis: check the referenced file/device setup, copy required files from the working PC, assign the turntable to an axis, and avoid IP conflicts. In network view, Not Required means the node is not currently assigned to an axis.

Symptoms¶

Turntable works on one Flair PC but not another.
Network/device view shows Not Required.
Same INI does not fully reproduce the working setup.
Node exists but is not assigned to a Flair axis.

Community Solutions¶

[LIKELY] Copy Referenced Files From The Working PC¶

The INI may reference supporting setup/config files that are missing on the second PC. Compare the working and failing installs and copy required device/axis setup files.

[CONFIRMED] Assign The Turntable Node To An Axis¶

Not Required in Setups -> Network Setup means the node is not assigned to an axis. Open Setups -> Axis Setup and assign the turntable/device to the intended external axis.

Confidence: 0.86

[LIKELY] Check IP Conflicts¶

If multiple network devices are attached, confirm the turntable node IP in Setups -> Network Setup does not conflict with RT14, UltiBox, HyperDeck, or other fixed MRMC addresses.
