Hello,

I would like to integrate DMX lights into a Kramer Control setup.
Is there any chance to trigger QLC+ Scenes with serial commands from a usb>serial converter?

Is there a different way?

Maybe somebody already tried and can help.

Thanks in advance and greetings from Vienna

Denny

Hi, please be more specific.

There are two plugins related to "serial" adapters in QLC+:
- dmsusb supports mostly FTDI devices also with input
- uart does only output

If you have a FTDI adapter, you can send a DMX universe to QLC+ and trigger functions by changing channel values (eg 0 -> 255 ON, 255 -> 0 OFF)
