Thanks Jeff.
Time to start playing with x-lights.

Sorry for the hijack here , but I am also trying to get Lor to output DMX to the lynx dongle .
Question ,Do you that have it working have the advanced version of LOR S3 ? I read somewhere that the advanced version of lor software is required to output dmx. I asked this question on the lor forum but didn't get a definite answer.
Thanks          (edit) I have the Basic +

My thought is because DMX gives you 512 channels that it will require an advanced license.

LOR uses non standard wires for DMX (3,4 vs 1,2) so-o wouldn't you still need to use a LOR to DMX adaptor cable of using the LOR adaptor?  I used s3 and xlights

If you are referring to the USB485B type adapter yes.  You need a modified cable to communicate with a DMX device like a LE.  To communicate with a LOR board then a regular network cable with do.

I am guessing you have the advanced license?
