Constant Output on DMX lines

Post by srotyliano »

I'm using a 3rd party USB-DMX interface with the DMXKing interface selected and I'm seeing a constant stream of bursts on the DMX lines when probed with an o-scope even when I have not output enabled.

Is this normal? Is there a way to turn off all DMX output?

I created a custom fixture for RGB PAR lights and I'm trying to debug the signals but its impossible with all this DMX traffic on the lines.

Thanks, Steve.

Might just be a (bad) cable issue. Try and change some cables, and try to connect a terminator to see if the problem changes or dissapears.
