USB Lynx Dongle

This DMX transmitter is a drop in replacement for the Enttec Pro device as far as Christmas lighting and vixen. Only one DMX Dongle is needed for each set of 512 channels of lighting. This is called a DMX universe. You can run multiple universes to have more channels with an additional DMX dongle and an additional USB port on your computer. Vixen has been tested running two universes (1024) channels and had no issue with it. This allows you to build and add to your show if and when every you need additional channels. Note: This DMX Dongle was not designed to replace the Enttec Pro with software other than Vixen. If a program uses the Virtual Comm Port drivers to operate a Enttec Pro then there is a chance it might work but if they use the direct d2xx drivers it is not going to work. The software designed to work with those drivers expect to see some different information to recognize the Enttec than what they are going to get from the Lynx Dongle.
