If it doesn't work pretty much automatically when you plug it in, you might consider returning it for one that works. Mine worked fine righf out of the box

Description of the tri says DMX Channels: 3 or 15, so it should work fine. you have to set the correct switches to select the address.

Make sure it is linked to your device. Make sure the volume on the HDMX Jam XT is turned up. Try to connect via the auxiliary jack port.

Connect with a USB cord or if that dnt work turn the controller over and get something small with a point n that small hole it should reset the controller then try to use a USB cord again

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.

Well in order to make the board work, you will need some sort of dimming system. These boxes can be used as dimmers.If you want to control any sort of halogen or NON-COMPUTERIZED fixture you will need dimmer packs. Otherwise you can hook the DMX cable right to the board and go straight to your DMX lights.

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.

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

Glad I could help. I've had a few problems with this particular product myself, and actually had to return the first one I got because the sides were just two flat pieces of plastic, and the control panel and DMX ports hadn't been installed. It sounds like maybe this design could have been done a little better, but hopefully you'll have more luck than I did with it.

No, it does not have any DMX capability and can only be controled by the ir remote.

Yes. Remember there is a steep learning curve to the Obey 40 if you are not accustomed to using a DMX controller. In every Chauvet manual is a chart of possible settings and the numbers associated to the action the unit is capable of. You didn't mention that you have DMX cables or a DMX terminator. My advice is to use both. Avoid mic cables instead of actual DMX cables.

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.

I use the DMXKing ultraDMX Micro. It's a usb-to-dmx interface using my laptop as the controller. You can get free controller software, such as QLC+ (what I use), and since you probably already have your laptop as a part of your setup, you don't need to add a separate lighting console to clutter up your desk.

From my experience, the DMX protocol isn't 'plug and play'. I had to spend some serious time finding out what channels do what to the fixture. It could well be you have a defective unit, but before returning it I'd do a search and see if there is anyone who's posted about your setup and see if that gives you more info. Hope this helps.

Paul, wish that was an option, I have the Zeus II and it will only play on my computer when a disc from EFX is inserted (it doesn't have to be specifically that disc)

You don't need the DMX cable it also sound sensitive if you want it to be. Also I would rather get the 100 dollar version these are too small for a party
