Hi there,
I apologize if there is a similar topic but I couldn't find any, so...
can I use simultaneously 2 dmx interfaces like enttec open dmx or USB to RS485, one for each universe? I tried that and after a few minutes, one of the interfaces loses connection. Is there a trick to connect those interfaces together (especially usb to RS485 since I plan to build my own interfaces with this module), or is there a bug?
Any help would be grateful
Thanks in advance

Do they work ok individually if you test them one at a time?

Hi,
thanks for the answer. Yes they work perfectly when I use them one at a time. The only problem is when I use two of them together...

As you say it starts working for a while, then you could try running some basic performance monitors (like piriform's speccy, etc) to look for signs like heat build up/cpu throttling or windows resource monitor for spiralling memory usage in the drivers in the build up to it failing.

Thanks for the answer. The machine I use FS is an I7 with 16gb of ram, so, I don't think this is the problem. I also checked if there's any conflict between usb devices but everything is ok. Is there any possibility to change the device "id" to one of the interfaces? I mean, something to let the software recognize the first interface as "no 1" and the second as "no 2", or something like that? This way, I can mark the interfaces and know what to use in the first universe or the second.
Thanks in advance
