Xlights Setup / Re: Can't make Open DMX work :(

« on: March 26, 2017, 12:23:30 PM »

Thanks for the replies. I managed to get output from xlights via a windows virtual machine on my mac. So like you said I think it is a pure xlights on mac issue.

But i'm not feeling the Open DMX dongle, I seem to be having more problems then not.

If I was to switch to e1.31 would you recommend something like this?

Xlights Setup / Can't make Open DMX work :(

« on: March 23, 2017, 03:42:33 PM »

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to run xLights on MAC. I'm having trouble getting any output when testing. I know my hardware works, I have QLC+ working and can control my lights.

xLights seems to be very temperamental about detecting the USB serial port when I add a new USB. Usually I have to restart in order for it to show up. Once it does I add it and attempt to run a test. It allows me to output to lights but nothing happens with my light. I don't know what else to try? Any suggestions would be appreciated!

I have an Enttec - Open DMX USB Dongle, running OS X El Capitan 10.11.6
