Velleman VM100N "server not started"

Post by jeejee99 »

Hi There,

I have a Velleman VM100N and I got it working with Freeplayer. But I really like ProppFrexx 200% more but I cannot get the Velleman to work with ProppFrexx
When I check the checkbox Velleman Enabled and put in the Mapping I cannot get it to work. When I click on Monitor I get the message that “The Velleman Server is currently not Started. Please enable the Velleman control”
Can you please help me out what I’m doing wrong.

Greetings,
Jeroen

The Velleman VM110N uses a slightly different/newer dll than the standard K8055N.
(I hope it is a typo above, as ProppFrexx only supports the Velleman K8055N or the VM110N cards)

When you take a look to the ProppFrexx installation folder you’ll find 2 files:
“K8055D_C.DLL” -> this is the one for the K8055N
and
“K8055D_new.dll” -> this is the one for the VM110N

You just need to rename both files:
“K8055D_C.DLL” to “K8055D_old.DLL”
and
“K8055D_new.dll” to “K8055D_C.DLL”

Then restart ProppFrexx ONAIR and it should work.

(it is a bit odd, but unfortunately Velleman only supports either the one or the other - so I needed to provide both file and then let the user decide; and as most uers still use the K8055N - that's the default)
