slim00209 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Good mornings, I am attempting to slowly get into the DMX world for 2017. I thought I had a pretty good grasp on what I needed to start out until I saw this video, At about he 3:46 mark, he says you can use a LOR USB-RS485 adapter (which I already own) with the LOR to DMX adapter shown. Is this possible with out having to purchase something like the Enttec open DMX or the ActiDongle from Holiday Coro? Thanks for any help, RyanSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis Laff Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 You can use the RS -485 but it's not recommended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgtlpro Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 If you want to use a LOR adapter for DMX, you will get better results from the USB-RS485B. I have had distance problems with the USB-RS485, as Dennis had said the RS485 is not recommended.Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
