Title: Wired LE V.4 question
Post by: Kadys dad on November 13, 2009,

Something occured to me that I had planned on using both the DMX out jacks on one of my LE's V.4, this is possible isn't it.  I understand using the wireless you can only use one of them but thought I'd better clarify about using them both with a wired setup before I got too far.

Yes using a wired connection (Cat5 cable only) both DMX outputs can be used. Think of it as a 1 channel out and 1 channel splitter.

You're right.  Version 3 and higher have two wired DMX outs if you're not using the EX/RX Wireless module.  Both V3 and V4 one DMX out (DMX2) if you are.

Thanks for the help guys, I thought I had read that somewhere, however now that crunch time has arrived I'm stressing over checking off all the items on the "To Do" list and now I have one more item checked off.   8)

I wish they all were that easy
