Title: Par can DMX problem
Post by: dmarin on January 03, 2019, 09:24:14 PM
Hello, I own a cheap standard 512 DMX controller and 4 brand new (cheap Chinese) par cans.
The par cans are working properly standalone without DMX, but when I connect them to the console no signal and no control to the lights!
The cable is DMX, the address is correct, and I use also a terminator with 120ohm resistor.
The console also has a polarity switch but no luck!
I forgot to mention that I test once at a time and not all together! Also the console is working properly with other "more expensive" lights as ADJ etc.

Please your help!!

Thanks!
