You said you configured the firewall.
Try turning them off.
Also, you must cycle the power on the ESS after a failed attempt at communication.

Mach4 General Discussion / Re: Convert millisecond to time

This might be what you want or at least get you started.

--Converts decimal seconds to an HH:MM:SS.xx format
function SecondsToTime(seconds)
   if seconds == 0 then
      return "00:00:00"
   else
      local hours = string.format("%02.f", math.floor(seconds/3600))
      local mins = string.format("%02.f", math.floor((seconds/60) - (hours*60)))
      --local secs = string.format("%04.2f",(seconds - (hours*3600) - (mins*60)))
      local secs = string.format("%02.0f",(seconds - (hours*3600) - (mins*60)))
      return hours .. ":" .. mins .. ":" .. secs
   end
end

You would be better off doing it yourself.
Then you can make changes or modify other things.
Before making any changes make a copy of your Profiles and Screens folders.
Then if you make a mistake you can always go back to the original.

Here is a link for a document I made that will help you start.

In Mach4 go to Operator then Edit Screen
On the left select the top thing under Screen Tree Manager
Below the Screen Tree Manager is the Properties section
Select the middle icon ( Events)
The top line is Screen Load Script
Click to the right of Screen Load Script and click the button with 3 dots.
On the right side scroll down to the function CycleStart()
This is where you will make your changes.

Edit the Cycle Start function in the Screen Load script.
It will take some coding but not a lot.

I am not a programmer and had problems starting also.
I made this and it might help you also.
