I have Vixen set to 115200, 8 bit, no parity, stop bit 1.

I am not using it for pixelnet yet, just trying dmx. Set to entec usb dmx pro. When I plug the dongle in then it will give me the option to connect to com port 3 but if not plugged in then Vixen and LE utility program do not see the com port. I setup a short sequence in vixen and when I run it, it freezes vixen as in the same in the LE utility. Red light is always on but never see the green come on either on the dongle. The green led works, I removed it and was able to light it up on an external power source. I have the right leads in, positive to positive.

If I unplug the dongle when vixen is running, or the utility, it will throw errors.  This is the only way to get either program to respond on the computer.

Whenever I reprogram the chip I also get the correct checksum 0A6F. It seems like something has failed on the dongle. Don't know what it is.

I finally got time to get together a show with year, 2013. I have built an express, bobcat dmx tester, mr16 and the usb dongle. I can not get any computer to work with the dongle. I get the red light to come but the green data light never comes on. I know the express seems to work okay, I used the bobcat tester and it will cycle through the channels.

The drivers look good in device manager. Two different computers, win xp 32bit and win7 64bit. I went through retouched up all the solder joints. Running all the latest versions of netframe software as directed to in the wiki, ver 2 etc. I reprogrammed the chip twice with a pickit 3, used the usb dongle software and not the pixelnet. Tried a differnet usb cable. Swapped the 485 chip off the mr16 and still no data.

Any suggestions? I have another board so I might just order another build from mouser.

When I try the LE config utility is locks up. I have is on comport 3 and experience the same no matter which comport I set it to in device manager. I also tried vixen and it also freezes up and this is on both PCs.

Thanks,
