Hi Guys,
I have brought a velleman k8062 interface for freestyler dmx software and I bulit it last night and i have been trying to get the interface to work with my lights so i can program etc.
My dmx lighting consists of:
3x Acme Dynatwin Dual Scanners - 8 Channels
2x American DJ Sunray TRI LED Star Balls - 3 Channels
1x Acme Miracled 4 Way Moonflower
Can anyone help me?

Sorry, I've been considering buying one of those myself, but haven't got there yet (in fact I just bought a dedicated DMX controller off eBay instead... :o )
What do you need help with? How far have you got with building it?

I bought one. Made it. Got a guy who builds PCB's to check it over. All was ok.
Did it work. Nope. lol. That went in the bin and I saved up for a Ryger.

You both need to get better at it then....I've build dozens of kits, including the DMX controller and had nothing that hasn't worked so far....WIMPS!!!!! :D
To the OP, what's the specific problem, I run this exact same system...FREEstyler + Vellmann dongle ting! :) Are you getting a quick flashing red light when you connect the USB lead from the PC to the Vellmann unit??

I did built it correctly. lol. Just never worked.
Not to worry. Bought one ready made but worth the money. :)

I looked at http://www.usbdmx.com/usb_dmx_interface.html as well, considerably more expensive, but probably better supported ;)

I quite happily ran with one of the Vellemann kits (home-made) and Freestyler for about a year before I needed to move on to something a bit more flexible.

And I think it was the one i bought of VV.
The only problem I get, more likely to be freestyler or other software running or ? is maybe once a night the lights will just go off on one. The only way to get control back is to restart freestyler. Happened again last night.
