No don't set them up as dmx in the LSP program. Use Pixelnet/Smartstrings setting. The active hub will generate the DMX for you. One dongle cannot do both pixelnet and DMX at the same time. The only time you could do it the way you are, is if you had 2 dongles. One flashed for pixelnet and one flashed for DMX.

So set lsp as pixel only and let the active hub determine what is dmx and pixel?
Now you got it. The active hub will send out both dmx and pixelnet on the same channel range depending on where you have the dmx jumper set to. In position 1 it is the range of 1-512. So any DMX devices with start channels of 1-512 will work and also any Pixelnet devices in that range will also work. So technically if both your dmx and pixelnet started with channel one they would both be doing the same thing. So most people start dmx at channel 1 and their pixelnet somewhere after the end of their dmx channels.
