A good RGB LED Control solution for Control4 is there


Recommended Posts

I have tried all 4 rs232 ports rebound ports and rebooted ever time and swapped the cables for rs232(serial 1,2) and then 3.5MM jack to serial (ports 3,4)

serial 1 serial 2 serial 3 serial 4.

This DMX engine is bad or i have bad cables.

Thoughts?

What's the led on the dmx engine looks like? One should be on, dmx should flash quickly and the third should be off

I tried multiple reboots of bothe core 5 and DMX engine and all the serial ports. Rs232 to rs232 and also serial3 and serial 4 to ra232

So therefore i have tried serial 1 , serial 2 ,serial 3 and serial 4.

Possibly bad rs232 serial cable?

Thoughts?

Sounds like you have a bad engine, a few months ago I went through this, swapped out with a new one and it worked immediately. The defective one was purchased from Amazon so not sure what to do with it
