dollarchip7 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Question can I run the Dmx like this? PC --> USB --> CAT5 --> DMX --> Lights? Or do I need to purchase a light controller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wbottomley Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 As long as those lights can accept DMX protocol. If not, you need to purchase some type of control board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonB256 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 It sounds like the boards you are describing have a controller in them. If your lights have plugs or jacks that say DMX IN and DMX Out, then yes for certain.Then it just becomes a question of matching up cable ends and the right signal wires.
