Correct me if i'm wrong,

But the enttec pro dmx does only support DMX in Or DMX out.

So if you want in and out, you will need a second one.

I can tell you one thing out of my own experience: you don't want to use the Velleman VM116/K8062 interface at all. Especially not when using quite a lot DMX channels (e.g. >100). The thing is way too slow. You might want to test if you experience the lack of speed/response at your setup, before it is too late. (do a full test with all lights on and running, as that makes a difference)
I've had situations where it took >500 msec between I pressed some override button that flashes a light and the actual flash. In fact, every communication took 500 msec...
Trust me, you don't want that. Search this forum for the VM116/K8062 interface when you want to read my investigation for this problem for it.

hi man thanks for the info and yea the velleman k8062 got some lag allright at one point there i had about 1 sec lag i was running 60 dimmer channels and 24 led par64 but it did the job lol but the enttec pro is worth the money for shore.
