Fixture doesn't respond to DMX

Hi everyone!
I just recieved my ADJ Quad Phase and an Eurolite DMX512 Pro and the fixture works great on its own but I cannot get the fixture to react to any DMX though :c
I have selected the interface in Freestyler (and I have selected the right comport), and it says it's outputing a singal but nothing happens to the fixture, the dmx bulb doesn't even light up.
Anyone who can help?

Sincerely,
Yoohan

There is no DMX mode on the fixture itself is there? Just double check the manual and check everything, i.e cables, interface, etc

You will need to 'tell' the fixture to resond to DMX as Nathan said. Usually its done via the LED display on the back of the unit so RTFM. You will also need to give it an address...also done via the LED display. Choose 1 for starters and make sure when you add the fixture to your FS desktop that it also has the same address.

Try another dmx fixture connected to your dongle to see if the dongle is the problem.
