Hi,
I am trying to hook up one of Ray's 27 channel DMX controllers to control dumb RGB lights through LOR S3 advanced. I have followed instructions on the Holiday Coro's website to solder a cat five to the DMX pad on the circuit board. From my understanding I needed to connect the stripped orange cable to the right connection (closest to the printed A) and the solid orange cable to the middle connection. I am using a standard cat5 cable not a cross-over cable. This is then connected to an LOR 485 dongle and plugged into the USB port of my computer. I have gone into Network setup and selected the adaptor (A1014VGP) and the protocol as raw DMX. The listener detect the dongle but I cannot communicate with the Board (red status light remains steady). Powering the board on and off results in the attached lights flashing on and off accordingly. When the dip switch is turned to the test mode the lights respond accordingly.
I have gone into my sequencer and set up some RGB channels and run the sequence. Nothing happens. I have not set any dip switches on the board, these are all in the off position when running the sequence.
I am obviously missing something in the setup. Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thank you
