    Default Mobo not responding to DMX?

    Anyone know why a Mobolaser table might stop responding to DMX? Checked the easy stuff like power, address, cabling, etc. DMX is definitely passing through it, and it's getting power. For a while it would occasionally just not respond, but tonight it quit altogether. Any ideas who might be able to fix said DMX transceiver?

    Fist step would be to replace the rs458 tranceiver; likely a dil8 device like the SN75176.

    Same as yours Flecom, the ML-10 I had at SELEM. Pushbutton switches for addressing.

    -Bart- thanks for your suggestion, I'll be checking that out soon.

    I do have a terminator on the end, though the mobo isn't at the end of the chain.

    I have two, one has DIP switches, the other has the pushbutton switches... the pushbutton switches on mine DO NOT match up with the DMX address... for example mine is set to channel 48 or something and the pushbuttons are set to 260
