Will this work with Freestyler to run DMX lighting?

I have not used it with that particular equipment, but it did work for me using some PTZ cameras in a dvr system.

I'm not familiar with either Freestyler or DMX lighting so I can't be sure. However, if either of those require a RS485 adapter then I think it's worth a shot. I have been successfull with this adapter on Windows 7 and several Debian/Ubuntu Linux distrobutions.

Zee question is whether your DMX is on RS-485. DMX is a protocol that can sit on top of all manner of cabling. If it's DMX E1.11, it might work. I've been using it for Modbus/RTU devices and it works well.

With these lights you can RGB mix the colors right on the light and to save time set them up in a master/slave config so all the lights match each other. For uplighting an event your gonna want more than 4 lights depending on the size of the venue and on how far you want each light from the other you could get some longer DMX cables , included in this package are 3 dmx cables aprox. 6ft long

Our LED flashes RED all the time and have never seen a Green LED. However using Light Boogie we did get the USB-DMX controller to work and control lamps - but not with FreeStyle. Using FTDi drivers with our own app have not been successful either even though the USB device is recognized. Since there is basically no support information that is available we can not recommend this product if you don't use the exact application stated.

it has already built in support for RGB why would you want to connect it to RGB DMX?

I have not bought these, but i am looking toward buying them. Also, I know a bit about lighting in general. I would use any standard 3 channel dmx controller, such as: Chauvet Obey 3 American Dj Supply RGB3C RGB Led Controller With Built In Colors And Shows or the ADJ RBG 3C American Dj Supply RGB3C RGB Led Controller With Built In Colors And Shows

This controller is a simple color fader. As far as calling up built in programs in the light, I would say it probably won't work.

You should be able to install the interface itself on as many computers as you want. I think the only limitation you might run into would be from the lighting software you use. I use Freestyler DMX (which works great with this interface), and it's free.

Hi Allan, It does not work with just any DMX controller. It requires a controller that supports 4 or more channels per device. 3 Channels will not work because either you get to set the RGB colors ( 3 channels) but then you can't make them bright or dim (4th channel). Larry has a 3 channel DMX controller which leaves one of the 4 channels out making the lights not to operate correctly. Either you miss one color... or you can't set the brightness and strobe on or off.

This unit is not artnet compatible. You'll need a true DMX interface controller.Also, one of mine didn't work at all and had to be returned.

Yes and no:Yes, if you plan to use this as microphone cable (what it's meant for) and it can also be used as 3-pin DMX. It's quality enough to do both.No, if you plan on using this for lighting instruments, lighting power, and/or speaker power. It's to thin of a gauge and you'll likely start a fire if you try to put anything of serious power needs through it.

I use 2 of these with an obey 40 and it works perfectly. Make sure your assigning proper channel assignment. Turn on dip switch 1 for dmx then use the DMX Dips switches (labeled on the unit itself) to assign the address, ie. for fixture 2 on your obey, set the 008 switch "On" for fixture 3 set 016 "On".

This unit does have the ability to strobe via a DMX controller. I however wouldn't recommend using it as a "strobe light". A strobe light is more of a an instantaneous on/off wash effect that would fill a room or area with intense light. The 4Play creates a moonflower pattern and is not a anywhere close to a wash or in your case a strobe light. I would suggest the Chauvet Impulse 648 LED Strobe Panel or the Chauvet Techno Strobe 168 LED Strobelight depending on the application.

I have used it with multiple computers running some form of windows. I use a light program called freestyler that has built in drivers. Hope this helps.

Not sure in that one. I'm not familiar with running gobos. You mean with dmx? I'm not familiar.

It's not a DMX controller that's included. You can only set the box to sound mode and it will run the built in patterns automatically. To control speed/color/or any specific pattern, you will need a separate controller.

All the Lights will need to be powered Individually. Cannot be powered by the DMX alone. Although that would be nice Feature lol. This particular Item is simple enough to be used but, for me for some odd reason it didn't work that well for me. So I ended up doing a return and got the Obey40 by Chauvet. Works Wonders and I love it lol. Good luck mate hope all works for yah.

that is correct. you can use it stand alone or DMX. It has several bilt in colors, or you can mix the colors to make just about any color you want right from the light.
