Beyond Essentials Version 5.2, Build 1736
At this stage I am working offline effectively, with just Beyond on my desktop PC attached to a custom box with FB3s and Entec Hub via USB, but no actual DMX devices. So it's not easy to check everything, but it doesn't look promising!
In my current scenario I have allocated Art-Net to DMX Output 1 and the Entec to Output 2
If I go to the DMX Monitor window only DMX Output 1 shows anything happening. For example, if I go into QuickDMX and for example set Channel 10 to 255, this is reflected only on Output Channel 1, regardless of what I set on the DMX OUT dropdown.
I've looked through manuals, videos and this forum but I can't find definitive answers, so any info most welcome.
- Should I be able to use more than one DMX Output at the same time? Basically, I want to use an Entec USB on one output for fog machines, and ArtNet to control lights on another.
- Should I be able to see the (up to four) different DMX outputs in the Beyond DMX Monitor window? (Spoiler, I'm not!)
