DMX LED Tubes screen help
Hi,
this is my first post here, great forum.
What DMX controller do I need so I can control DMX LED Tubes. I have 50 LED tubes which have 4 pin connector for DMX control. I have a DMX controller but it is not USB and I can't find any info about it. The controller is using LAN cable and software called "Flash LED". The tubes are designed for a LED screen and they are working OK. I can show video, pictures... But now I mounted the tubes in a small club and I want to easily control them live. Please help me to choose the controller I need. I can upload pictures of my equipment.
Thank you very much!!!

Re: DMX LED Tubes screen help
First of all i NEVER used dmx thru Ethernet.
so í'm just giving some sugetions.
Dmx thru Ethernet is call't ARTNET so you can take a look at that, Freestyler also suport ARTnet.
you need it so set it as your "Interface"
and if it use Artnet you don't need a Dmx device you can use you Lan from the pc
also your ip need to be 10.x.x.x or 2.x.x.x the artnet protocol uses these Ip
Maby this will help.

Re: DMX LED Tubes screen help
Hello,
No i can not help you with helping to make a Lan cable.
How did you connect everything,Pc with lan to Controler and from controler with lan to led tubes?
you also allways need to have the controller connected because it contance the Power supply for the led tubes and it also makes the Data that the led tubes are asking for.
i think you first need to find what for type of controller you have and search on what for typ of protocal it uses.

Re: DMX LED Tubes screen help
The controller is YT-S1000 which is the same as YT-S900. http://bjytqy.zgc.tm/sell/itemid-43916.shtml
It connects to PC through LAN cable using UDP port 8003. No IP adress is needed when I put manually IP addresses 10.x.x.x or 20.x.x.x I cant get a working connection.
When I translate the webpage above it says:
"Supports all serial data interface of the LED driver chips, such as MBI5026, MBI5024, DM135, DM13C、74HC595、6B595、SC16722、ZQL9712、LPD6803等。 DM13C, 74HC595, 6B595, SC16722, ZQL9712, LPD6803 and so on. "
There is also info that I connect a DMX 512 :
" By connecting the optional converter card DMX512 lighting console, stage lighting system with a high degree of compatibility."
But there is no info how to do that, and what controller to buy...
For now I can only connect the software that came with the controller "FlashLed" which is very limited to uploading some avi movies and pictures to the controller.
I really need your help on this!!!
